when I went to see Kristin Hersh, John Doe and Grant Lee Phillips I did not expect Bob Mould to come on stage and do a song with them, hardly the biggest shocker in the world, but it was cool

You're killing me, Kosmo. I just got "Sixteen Tambourines" on CD and I cannot stop listening to it. With REM and the Replacements? I might have passed out.

When I went to see Soul Brains at 9:30 a few weeks ago, I didn't expect it to suck so bad.
Well, maybe a part of me did.

When I went to see the Furthur Festival in 2000, I didn't expect Hanson to come out and sit in for a few songs. I was also surprised that they were pretty good.
When I saw Springsteen in '99, I didn't expect Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Brown, Mary Chapin Carpenter and Bruce Hornsby to sit in for the encores.
When I saw REM in '99, I didn't expect to see Patti Smith come out and sing on "E-Bow the Letter".
When I saw REM this past October, I didn't expect Bill Berry to come onstage, sing backup on "Radio Free Europe" and play drums on "Permanent Vacation".

When I went to see Billy Bragg and Wilco singing all that Arlo Guthrie stuff I didn't expect to be subjected to such utter utter shite.
When I went to see Badly Drawn Boy I didn't expect to See Andy Rourke on Bass.
When I went to an HFS'tival I didn't expect to be as blown away by Primus as I was.

I'm sure Billy Bragg himself would disagree with you, as would numerous critics.

Billy Bragg's descent into mediocrity predated his working with Wilco by 10 years with the release of Worker's Playtime in 1998. From that album on, his work has been hit and miss, whereas his first two albums were solid throughout.
I think a majority of music lovers would agree that Wilco managed to recover quite nicely from their brush with Mr. Bragg based on their fine followups, Summer Teeth and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.
