AJ673 Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 In the Ashes DVD, during the segment on John, he talks about how the band could withstand one more line up change (as long as it wasn't John). Any thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Kinsley Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 In the Ashes DVD, during the segment on John, he talks about how the band could withstand one more line up change (as long as it wasn't John). Any thoughts?I think that was more of a compliment to John than a 'boy would I love to give ____________ the axe' comment. Basically if anyone BUT John left, they could still call it Wilco. If John takes off... they're done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fritz Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Remember also that before saying this he says something like as much as I wouldn't want it (another line-up change) to happen... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The High Heat Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 What album did John first play in Uncle Tupelo? He was on Anodyne, right, but anything prior?Anodyne was his first and only studio album with UT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tribute2Johnny Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 wait, what's all this about the past possibility of Glenn leaving? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TCP Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 wait, what's all this about the past possibility of Glenn leaving?Basically, Glenn's drumming has become really sloppy. There's been rumours for months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Excitable Boy Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Basically, Glenn's drumming has become really sloppy. There's been rumours for months. Seriously??? I guess I'm out of the loop. I just find this hard to believe! I've always thought his drumming was perfect every time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The High Heat Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I do wish Glenn would bring back the emerald drum set. I'm not a fan of the camel, especially on stage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AJ673 Posted May 17, 2010 Author Share Posted May 17, 2010 I must say I believe you totally missed Jeff's point here. It was a lover letter...a homage to John. Perhaps I am in error - I apologize. Unfortunately I cannot replay the DVD due to multitudinous (sp?) playing/scratches to post the exact quote. While I agree it was playing John in a positive light, another line-up change might still be possible given the bands previous history of turn around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
