Schmilco is the one I'd pick, not star wars, if I was forced to.

I read a lot at first but eventually just stopped altogether. I did set a reminder on my calendar to return at the 6 month mark to make a thread asking who sits down to pee.

If RM was a Wilco song it would probably be I Might.

The thing I really like about Wilco is how opposite their career trajectory looks from our nearest and dearest favorite band, Pearl Jam.

Everything they've released after their heyday has been varying degrees of quality, but there's nothing in their catalog that just downright feels phoned in or lazy. They seem to genuinely enjoy making music on their terms, and I respect that.

They are proving to be one of the most authentic bands of our time. I think the shit posters on RM can learn from the gang in Wilco.

While it is endearing that Wilco have not embarrassed themselves completely for 20 years straight like Pearl Jam has they are the second worse thing: boring.

If you want good dad rock listen to the new Superchunk record. Don't give Jeff any more money for deep dish pizza.
