Jay Farrar

I don't bit torrent (too lazy) bit torrent is so easy you won't believe it all you need is a tracker, which is a quick free download, and some hard drive space. the hardest thing is probably registering for something like dimeadozen or oink, although several other trackers are easy to sign up for (...

How could that not be a rockin' trip? My only suggestion would be "Livin' After Midnight" or "Love Will Keep Us Together" Wilco Madison Square Garden New Year's Eve 2004, because they are fun for driving. Let me know if you want 'em (or the entire show). yeah, those would be very cool tracks to add...

i just don't understand how an artist as brilliant as Jay Farrar can play the same songs night after night with no variation and not feel stale

i just don't get it

I get quite tired of Jay and to a somewhat lesser extent Jeff saying or implying in interviews that they have "no interest in playing songs that they wrote when they were 20." Some of the best songs they ever wrote (especially for Jay) were written when they were 20 or so years old. I truely believ...

for me, Kevin Salem on In a Whisper

best son volt show I've ever downloaded

mind-blowing

I personally don't see how anyone who was a fan of UT back when there was a UT, could possibly still be saying they like them both equally. That just ain't natural. I go back to the earliest days of Uncle Tupelo I dig Wilco & Son Volt equally, though I have periods where I listen to one more than t...

I unearthed this Okemah live disc from beneath a massive pile of crap and it's blowing me away right now

i have no idea when it was recorded, where it's from, how I got it or even who plays on it, but it sounds fantastic

Jay performed Still Be Around on Aug. 26, 2006, in an acoustic set at the Northwest String Summit in Oregon.

how cool would it be to hear him resurrect Looking for a Way Out

Most excellent... I hope they save it in their archives so I can hear the first 20 minutes. Damn, I hope someone recorded it and can put it up on YSI!!! so did a recording of this wonderful set ever pop up anywhere? i never saw it on dime or any of the other trackers. I was there that afternoon, ri...
