I'm hoping for the best but I'm fearing the worst.Oh god.THAT looks bad. This could very well be awful. Still awaiting more news... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thisyearsgirl Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I am hoping this isn't true. Either way, I hope Jay knows that Wilco fans still value what he added to the band. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jc4prez Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 If its true, my thoughts go out to anyone close to Jay that might be reading this. His music meant a lot to a lot of us. Weather or not he left on good terms Wilco just wouldn't be Wilco without his contributions. Peace, Jay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gobias Industries Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Shit, hope this isn't true. I'll have to spin Being There and Summerteeth tonight if this is true. He may have come off as a prick but fuck, the man could play his guts out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky speaks Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Nothing pops up on Google.......Haven't seen anything on any music news sites either......Maybe mistaken identity based on that NYT obit. Nothing..... http://www.mtv.com/news/ http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/index.jsp http://www.wgntv.com/news/ http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/blog/ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chicago/ Only mention of rumor......But it means nothing..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Bennett Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mrs. Peel Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I hope so, nudie. The management site makes me wonder though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gobias Industries Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 wrong url http://www.myspace.com/jaybennett Ironically, the management site has it up the way it was initially posted. I'm confused now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shakespeare In The Alley Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I think the management site's changes could say a lot. And again, I doubt that any music news site is going to publish this story now. It's a holiday weekend. And it's a very young rumor/development. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
