What bands or artist do you like more than Wilco?

[remphish1]

 

I seem to recall one video (also from a european festival - wtf?) where he berates some dude in the audience for being an asshole, but I can't seem to find it.

 

This one??

This one??

yeah, that's the one. I thought there was more dialog between the two, but "hey dog collar boy, come up here" works for me.

[Jayson]

I'm definitely the most horrendously young dude in the house-

 

My top ten are as follows. Each band is within 1% of the others

 

1. Wilco

2. Say Anything

3. Fleetwood Mac

4. Dinosaur Jr.

5. The Who

6. Coheed and Cambria

7. Incubus

8. Rilo Kiley

9. Anthony Green

10. Arctic Monkeys

if we're talking about rock music, dylan is my all-time favorite artist. pearl jam is my all-time favorite band...however, over the past 5 years or so, these have been my favorites, i love them all in different ways and can't really put a ranking order on them

 

wilco

my morning jacket

neko case

broken social scene

sonic youth

bright eyes

arcade fire

radiohead

 

my favorite classics are..

 

grateful dead

beatles

the who

I don't know if I like any band more than Wilco. But I do go through phases and when I'm on a Wilco one I'd say Dylan and Phish come pretty close...especially Dylan.

Wow. Nice list. I'm seeing Pavement tonight in Sydney. Very excited.

 

I would say none, but that's because the question is framed as "what bands or artist do you like more than Wilco." Wilco will always be my favorite band ever, being my first love when it comes to music. But I quite obviously acknowledge the presence of "better" artists out there, and so given a composite measure of "how good I think they are" and "how much I love them" you'd probably get this:

 

1. The Beatles

2. Bob Dylan

3. The Band

4. Wilco

5. Pavement

[Gobias Industries]

Wow. Nice list. I'm seeing Pavement tonight in Sydney. Very excited.

 

, should be amazing.

 

Seeing them 4 nights in a row...May 10-13. Going to be awesome. You should check this out, it's pretty stellar: Pavement 2010 Tour info.

Thanks for the great link.

 

Show last night was fantastic. Thunderously loud and the hits just kept comin' for almost two hours!

[Briggins]

I'm have no idea where Wilco falls in my list.

They are a band I like very much. Not an absolute favourite, but I do love them.

Radiohead is my clear no. 1. U2 at no. 2 Then various Canadian bands take the next few slots.

I'd have to put my favorites into 2 different buckets.

 

1. Bands I currently follow every move

WILCO

My Morning Jacket

Ryan Adams

Drive By Truckers

2. Bands I have personal connections to whether by coming of age or specific life experiences (CDs/albums are always close by)

Genesis (Gabriel era) & Gabriel solo (big 4)

Pink Floyd

Beatles

Iron Maiden

Bruce Springsteen

Van Halen & DLR (first concert was Eat 'Em and Smile tour)

 

There's only one band that seems to fit both through the past 20 yrs - The Black Crowes
