LouieB Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 People have every right to complain, and other people have ever right to respond to those complaints. But then the OC (original complainer) feels the need to defend him/herself, which of course begs the COTOCs (complainers of the original complainer) to likewise justify their point. And then some UTPOs (uninvolved third party observers) come in with meta comments about the validity of the argument in the first place, reminding us that This Place is not nearly as bad as That Other Place. Which of course causes SJLMTTBC (some jackass like myself trying to be clever) to write up something like this.Yea, we really compounded a non-problem by making it a worse non-problem.

Mr. Heartbreak Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Yeah, I have to read and write all day at my job, and that post was the best thing I read today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brownie Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I would hate to see remphish leave. I also do not think the posts he(?) is offended by warrant such an extreme reaction (i.e. leaving the forum). Remphish, most of those posts were just questioning you, not dissing you! (spoken by someone who has literally thrown up from what people have posted about what she said...and I'm still posting on the internet! ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I think remphish posts daily (or least every other day)in the Live! Tonight! thread - one would think he would have gotten some flack from this forum or any other forum for his thoughts on any given show - esp. since he goes to a shit ton of them. To each their own - if you like a show, great - if you don't, great. Obviously some posters can be a be dick with their responses - at times it's the Wild, Wild West - so be that, too. I was always amused to see all the shows he goes to, especially now since I hardly get out anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Inside of Outside Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I'm with you, Calvino - I will miss living vicariously through remphish's concert-going. And TP's, too, for that matter. Wait, TP's not going anywhere.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IRememberDBoon Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 having met remphish in the flesh at Charlottesville WILCO I can say he seems like a great guy. And I feel his pain on the all covers set.I can leave the board if that would make folks feel better. I don't know much about music anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-seven Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Just want to say a few things about this.remphish1, I think you're cool and I hope you come back around at some point. Taking a break from this board is a fine thing to do from time to time. I think you simply made a mistake in judgement by choosing only to attend Fri night and that you should be mad at yourself for that, not the band. Most fans wanted to see something different from them and they delivered. It was pretty clear that it was going to be an unusual night so coming with specific expectations and making it your only show was a risk on your part. As for being bored, I'll admit to being bored with the Sat night show. I even sat down a few times which I've never done at a Wilco show before. Part of that had to do with it being overcrowded and I couldn't get a close enough spot, part of it had to do with that maybe I've seen the band too much and there isn't much new happening right now and I wasn't crazy about the set list. Wilco seems a bit lethargic to me right now. Maybe they need a break or maybe I do. Probably I do. Overall, I enjoyed the weekend very much. I loved the covers show especially Tommy Stinson coming out for a cover of Color Me Impressed, the midnight dinner was gorgeous and special, Beth Orton joining Sam Amidon for a song, I was happy to catch Sean Rowe & The Blisters, Glenn & Radio lab, Reggie Watts was crazy good...loved the cafe cortados, bloody marys, Xu Bing, Solid Sound Radio...I know this report doesn't belong here but I'm just saying all this so that I don't get blasted for being bored with Sat night Anyway, take a break from the board and we'll be here when you come back. I hope you'll be back. I know you'll be back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
