Thanks Ana - merged your thread into this ongoing one, so yes - we sure have been following this story. Lots of Finn Fans around Via Chicago.

 

I watched the youtubes yesterday and I loved every minute of it and MUST watch it again sometime soon.

 

I'm so thankful someone recorded it and uploaded it to youtube for us non-New-Zealanders to enjoy. :)

From this week's Finn Fan Club Newsletter:

 

It will have a release through Sony. At this stage I can confirm- Australia, NZ and USA. I'm sure there will be other areas but just haven't had any confirmation at this stage. At the time of writing the release date is still expected to be August. There was talk of both a single CD and a Double CD. I'm assuming that hasn't changed? The 2 discs that I have- contain 12 songs on each.

Radiohead/Wilco/Marr/Finn Supergroup Benefit Album Details Revealed

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Radiohead's Phil Selway makes vocal debut.

 

This past winter, former Crowded House/Split Enz frontman Neil Finn assembled a dizzying cast of music luminaries in New Zealand. Johnny Marr, Radiohead's Ed O'Brien and Phil Selway, Wilco's Jeff Tweedy, John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche, and Pat Sansone, and plenty of others got together with Finn to record a follow-up to Finn's all-star 2001 album 7 Worlds Collide. The album will be a benefit for Oxfam International. Now, NME reports that it'll be out on August 10.

 

NME says that the album, titled The Sun Came Out, will be a double album, and it'll feature the singing debut of Radiohead drummer Selway. And according to NME, Marr collaborated with Wilco on the song "Too Blue". The tracklist, via NME, is below.

Hi

I'm another kiwi lurker, finally signed up!

I was at the second night show, LOVED it, second row, mainly went for Wilco but I also loved the Smiths back in the day, and Radiohead...

Anyway I was kinda expecting a DVD release of the concert, seemed like there was official type filming going on, I sure hope so, anyone know more?

Updated cover art, with an album title and some shuffling of photos. Spencer's now got a stamp. :) (The monkey is a watermark, I believe, not part of the actual album cover.)

 

Glenn's stamp is worth more than Jeff's. I see this being the kind of thing that breaks up Wilco.

Why would this break up wilco? Jeff has been in side bands since the beginning of wilco. I think, if anything, it's good for wilco. Without Loose Fur we probably wouldn't have albums like yhf or agib.

 

It's quite simple: Jeff sees that his stamp is a measly 80-cents compared to Glenn's 95-center, and this results in a huge brawl. But keep on drinking the "everything will be fine" Kool-Aid.

Anyone for a drum-off between Glenn and Phil Selway? (track 11 disc 2 - 3 Worlds Collide – Glenn Kotche & Phil Selway drums, percussion )
