maybe all i need.

i just finished watching the second disc of the wilco documentary, "i am trying to break your heart." if you haven't seen it, and you have hands, you should buy it. i'm still kicking myself for passing up an oppurtunity to see jeff tweedy live in vancouver. what can you do.

seriously though, i don't know what my life would be like without bands like wilco. without music that i can look forward to listening to on my way home from work. i think that's the kind of music i want to make. the kind that keeps you going throughout your day, that gets stuck in there, and just won't come out. i tried to remember the first time i listened to a band that i really felt that...amazed feeling. it's sad to think that i haven't experienced that feeling in a while.

though i may not be able to remember that feeling, i can remember the first time i ever heard a wilco song. i was in grade four or five maybe. (just thinking about that makes me feel so old). anyways, wilco's first single ever (i'm pretty sure) "outta sight, outta mind", was a new entry on the Much Music Countdown, and i remember seeing the video. i don't think i had an opinion on the song either way. i think i was more excited about the weezer video that followed it, but nevertheless. it's funny to think that so many years later that band made such a lasting impression. if i'm forty, and i can't remember who wilco was, remind me. please. i'll probably be pretty stoked.

once again, i think there's a great moral to be learnt here: buy every single release that wilco has put out.

you know what, while you're at it, just pick up all of radiohead's stuff too.
