You do know season #2 is unavailable on region-1 DVD?  It's region-2 only.  What a shame...

I didnt know that. My wife bought me season 1 already, I thought most of the BBC DVDs were all regions?
 
 the new season is on BBC America right now, but I only saw one episode.

I've found that many of the people on this board were not musically savvy enough to have heard of Wilco, and especially Whiskeytown, five years ago.

 When did becoming media darlings make somebody an awful musician? You have to admit that Ryan Adams and Tweedy and company are incredibly talented. I am sure most people on this board raved about Wilco and Whiskeytown five years ago.

 Or maybe we just have better taste in music.
 
 I've come to the realization Rhett is more of an arrogant obnoxious elitist little prick than GGW....sorry GGW, you're #2 now.

I had heard of wilco because of Billy Bragg. I have still not knowingly heard whiskeytown. Ryan Adams album was horrible.

I wasn't referring to anyone in particular, and I stand by my statement. Who here had heard of Whiskeytown five years ago, and who had not heard of them? I would guess most had not.

I had heard 'of' Whiskeytown, but not heard their music.
 
  As for Wilco, I had heard them quite a while ago and found them to be really quite shit from the get-go. I also saw them in concert supporting some band that I can't even remember now, and thought it would be a good time to go for a pee and to get a beer while they were on stage.

I had heard of them but did not listen to them.
