   GREAT news. Now then: is it going to be better than Sky Blue Sky?

   Clue: My nan farting into a series of jam jars might just be better than Sky Blue Sky…

   Oh, now, come on… SBS isn’t THAT bad… I listen to it quite a lot. It’s just not what we WANTED from a Wilco album that contained Nels Cline.

   BIG JIM emphatically didn’t ruin YHF.

    Oh no, big jim rules… I LOVE BIG JIM. But I still want a t-shirt with it on. It’s irony, innit. In fact, perhaps the t should say I LOVE BIG JIM on the back?

    judging by the recent nudie suits and press shots :: COUNTRY

    being there part 2? yes? that would be amazing thank you VERY much

    Yeah – that recent press shot just says it all. Though, did anyone see the excerpt from the live DVD on channel 4 the other night? There’s still a hard edge to the older stuff – it’s still not straight country…

    Wilco (the album), um, with a title this pretentious/awkward/lame, I’m worried about the music. From what I’ve seen of live performances, it seems Jeff may think his position in the rock world a little precious. There been a whiff of entitlement about the band recently, and the recent title compounds that concern. Nevertheless, I hope Wilco….(the album) is as good as YHF or GiB. *fingers crossed**breath held*

    so i watched the live dvd last night for the first time and have to say it is a total and utter piece of shit.

    joke!

    no – it’s amazing. AMAZING. the opener ‘ashes of american flags’ – is possibly the most beautiful piece of band performance ever captured on film. i’m serious. and it was in soundcheck too! i have goose bumps even thinking about it.

    one thing though – that actually really annoyed me. through out the film – near the end really, each band member discusses one another – “yeah man nels is the shit on guitar” “glen saved the band” etc etc

    NO ONE MENTIONS PAT

    and i really think that’s sad. cos not only is he a fucking talented bloke – he is probably the most underrated member of the current live lineup. and he is the best guitar windmiller ever. fact.
