So you're on the walkie-talkie, you say, roger, wilco. That means I got it, consider it done. My dear old dad filled me in on that one.Jimbromskihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06480579106355009821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31270091.post-62090468082794485802008-03-11T11:16:00.000-05:002008-03-11T11:16:00.000-05:002008-03-11T11:16:00.000-05:00I'm with Potsy on this one.

I have the same problem with Radiohead and Tom Petty. I like them in theory, but I never care to listen to them. Maybe I need counseling.KCGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03834180901766966259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31270091.post-24413663191526769492008-03-09T21:04:00.000-05:002008-03-09T21:04:00.000-05:002008-03-09T21:04:00.000-05:00I forgot to mention a particularly amusing part of...I forgot to mention a particularly amusing part of the show. It was in the last few seconds of a particular tune which called for Jeff Tweedy to hit a high note, perhaps a bit out of his natural range. So as he struggled a bit to reach the high note, faltering, Tweedy interrupted his singing and broke into a brief discussion of David Lee Roth's vocal tracks on Runnin' With the Devil, as was discussed here: http://www.dcrockclub.com/2008/02/this-is-not-test-of-emergency-broadcast.html<BR/>Giving a solid impression of DLR's "haaaaayaaaa!", Tweedy concluded the song, still unable to hit the high note, but he was was charming in his failure.Potsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17628405727114697845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31270091.post-21429546697922951062008-03-08T18:55:00.000-05:002008-03-08T18:55:00.000-05:002008-03-08T18:55:00.000-05:00Nice work Potsy.

I even like their latest album (everyone else seemed luke warm at best). However, the 9:30 Club was packed to the gills w/ Wilco superfans. Something about these guys inspires a level of fandom you just don't see in other bands.<BR/><BR/>The wife wasn't familiar with Wilco before the show. She thought was one of the guys in the band was named Wilco. So I just kept refering to Jeff Tweedy as Roger Wilco. Her favorite part was Jeff Tweedy's clap-happy dancing. It reminded my her of me, drunk and pantsless, dancing with my dog.Jumbo Slicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08525227134450004928noreply@blogger.com
