Moss Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I enjoyed that: "Jesus, Etc." was a blessing despite having to operate without that sublime Al-Green-goes-Celtic string arrangement. If a film-choad like the talentless Cameron Crowe tries to taint that dreamy song by dropping it into Vanilla Sky II or some such turd, I may have to personally impale him on his Oscar from the sports-agent-with-a-tender-boner movie.

choo-choo-charlie Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 I enjoyed it too -- once he got to the point. The Wilco-the-quartet period in 2001 seems to be one of the most wishy-washy eras of the band. Some people seem to speak of that live era as incredibly boring and pretentious, others love it... I forgot to add that this part of a series where Pfork is unearthing old articles that don't live on the site anymore... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oatmealblizzard Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I was at this show and it was pretty great, if I do recall. Thanks for posting! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 The douchebaggery rampant in this article is endemic of what passed for music journalism in Pitchfork. I tried a few times to get through the review and it didn't hold my interest. I probably will try again, though - perhaps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
choo-choo-charlie Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 It took me a long time to read it, once I found the point where he actually began reviewing the concert and stopped writing masturbatory dredge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
