lol i didnt watch the grammys, i just heard about it afterwards. and im a big wilco fan, i just think its a bit of a travesty for them to be recognised with such a disgraceful excuse for an award. thanks for the forum info

lol its still beats the term used for uncle tupelo - Mythical alternate country rock.... what a joke

Uncle Tupelo were far better IMO. Don't know nothing about no Grammies.

I have to hear about them nonstop, since they have deep connect in this town. But, there's some talk in Big3's alt-country thread. Check out Son Volt's earliest album, and some Uncle Tupelo if you're down.

Wilco is so fantastic, my favorite songs are probably I'm Always In Love, Late Greats and I Am Trying to Break Your Heart. I think Tweedy is my favorite songwriter right now. I can't decide on a favorite album, but I think its Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.
