So I'm back from Burning Man, I"ll post more about it tomorrow or the next day after I use jumper cables on my brain, but for now, dating back to last week, Drew and I had this conversation the other day and I was wondering if any of the thousands of monstro blog readers had anything to weigh in on this, one of the most confusing questions of our era: why does anyone like Wilco?
me: so i developed a question the other night to ask you
Drew: go
me: so i saw wilco the other night and the show was fucking awesome they played for like just under 2 hours without stopping i knew some of the songs, hadn't heard others but i was realizing that while listening i had no idea what they were singing about, ever, and coulodn't figure out why i liked them so the question is why the hell does anyone like wilco? what about them is appealing?
Drew: they are like rock scientists in my opinion its like you can't tell why a painting is good, but you can tell the artist is really talented, eh? i think people recognize that Wilco is a really talented band
me: yeah i feel that
Drew: cuz i dont know what they sing about either
though on earlier albums, its not so weird
