dthedust Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 sorry to have to take up a topic on this but its such a great quote. i will erase tomorrow and tattoo it on my arm as well. the quote is something along the lines of " Yeah the news is in. Experimenting with sound works". Clearly more poignant but im sure someone here can tell me. I did multiple searches on the internet but couldnt find it.sorry and thanks.

caliber66 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I think it was - somebody correct me if I'm wrong - "Yeah, the news is in - we're experimenting with making crappy records." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosco Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I think it was - somebody correct me if I'm wrong - "Yeah, the news is in - we're experimenting with making crappy records." That's close, but I don't believe that was it. Something tells me that "crap" is rather subjective, and I don't believe that Jeff would release a record he considers "crap", but I may be wrong.

caliber66 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 No, I'm pretty sure that's it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 No, I remember reading this too. It was something along the lines of "there's nothing experimental about rhythm and guitars and drums, etc.--the results are in, and it works" Something like that. I can't figure out the right google search terms to find the original quote, but it was something like what dthedust said. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dude Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I think it was - somebody correct me if I'm wrong - "Yeah, the news is in - we're experimenting with making crappy records." No, I'm pretty sure that's it. Well, it better be, because I've tattooed it on my arm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have Wilco: Learning How to Die - by Greg Kot? It may be in there. I actually looked to see if it was a line from one of the articles found on the website: Wilco - The Gumbo Pages. But, I did not see it there. You'll figure it out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
