As you may have read the other week, we will be seeing Wilco on the second night of Lollapalooza. While it pains me to have to miss Rage, I know that Wilco will put on a show that is more relevant to S.Rod and I in our present states. Eighteen year old Mark is turning in his grave though. So be it.
One trump card that Wilco has over Rage is that Wilco is one of those bands who are really ready to play anything at anytime. A lot of bands nowadays will have 10-15 songs, but Wilco has at least 60. To further exemplify this, Wilco has created a page on their site, where fans can dictate some of what gets played at each show. I chose “I’m The Man Who Loves You”. S.Rod chose “Shake It Off”. We are crossing our fingers that both get played . Cheers.

“Shake it Off?” Please tell me she’s joking!

Haha…I did request it. Shake it Off is not my favorite song but it reminds me of Sahm. On his first listen he misheard the lyrics “when I’m waking up” for “when I’m whacking off”. Anyway it has since become a bit of a running joke with us. And I made it his ringtone.

You might also recall that the riff from ‘Shake It Off’ was used in the first interlude on MJR 9 where S.Rod loses her cool.

Appreciate the link, Bicho… however that site is out of registrations… but since I now know the bootleg exists, I will try to find it elsewhere.
Thanks for stopping by!
