mikeyk52 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Man, sometimes I think Brendan Canty might be one of the coolest dudes alive. It would be one thing just to play drums in Fugazi. Most people can't compete with that. But then he adds his efforts with Trixie films and Burn to Shine. The guy is like the sweetest curator/producer ever. Agreed. When I saw Eddie Vedder this summer in DC the Burn to Shine crew was filming the show, Brendan Canty included. To kick off the second encore Eddie asked Brendan to move from the behind the camera to behind the drum kit, and the two ripped up All Along The Watchtower. My brain exploded.

rrgunn Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 This has probably already been covered but is this a straight concert filmor is it a documentary (like with interviews, backstage stuff, etc.)?Is it one show or a complilation? Whether its a compilation or one show, I'm hoping it will be the "live album" I wish Kicking Television had been. (Sorry, I think KT was too much Ghost is Born).

Guest Gym Teacher Man Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 judging from the trailer, i think it appears to be more of a doc. of a stint on the road than just one show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Read that entire thread and didn't really see any addressing my questions.

It's called "Wilco DVD" and could be found on page two of this forum.http://forums.viachicago.org/index.php?showtopic=37877 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

creativetype Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I asked this in the "other" thread, but it got buried in Blu-Rays ... so I'll throw it out once again. Was anyone who was interviewed outside the Cain's (or other venue) before the show contacted by the producers about a release/permission to use the clip? I was interviewed but not contacted. Cutting room floor I suppose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

creativetype Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The usual practice is to have you sign the release before you're on camera, no? Would think so. They asked those of us who were interviewed (in line outside before the show) to spell out our e-mail address on camera so they could presumably contact us later to do a release. I figured good number of the people interviewed would be VCers and would mention if they were contacted at all. Maybe there's an implied "consent" by the mere fact that we agreed to be on camera verbally and they didn't need it. Once inside the venue, I believe the concert ticket (that features all the small legal type disclaimers on the back) would be your agreement to be filmed, etc. ... Guess we'll have to wait until April 18 to find out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 tThis is a microcosm of why I love and hate the internet. Now I know about the dvd and the track listing and am excited at the prospect of getting it. Now I will have to wait two months in full knowledge of what is coming. In the old days, I would either see it on the day it was released and be appropriately surprised or read about it a week before it came out. Modern Life indeed.

Sparky speaks Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 the majority of people at Wilco shows don't even know what VC is. You mean they never heard of the Viet Cong? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
creativetype Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 maybe, but if that were the case like you said above, people would've probably posted about it. That's what I thought. Part of me hopes I'm in it, but the other part of me is afraid I'll look like the backstage guy in IATTBYH: "Is your new album more like A.M. or more like Summer TEETH?" I'd settle for a glimpse of me in the Cain's crowd that doesn't make me look like a dork. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JessieOK Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The way he says that and his ridiculous smile after saying "teeth" makes me crack up every time my favorite is the guy who asks if the new album is like a trip hop album...wtf?

Edie Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 That's what I thought. Part of me hopes I'm in it, but the other part of me is afraid I'll look like the backstage guy in IATTBYH: "Is your new album more like A.M. or more like Summer TEETH?" Actually, "the backstage guy" in the film is WXRT DJ Lin Brehmer. When IATTBYH came out, he laughed and laughed about his "essential contribution" to the film -- but you could tell he was fairly mortified. He's a pretty good guy in reality.
