I hate to admit that every time I've heard Jesus, Etc live, I've been a little underwhelmed. The only "live" version I've heard that I've enjoyed was the brief rehearsal clip from I Am Trying To Break Your Heart.

How short is short? And what brand of cigar? My dad had the honor of meeting him in Chicago, and incorrectly informed him that my aunt was a huge fan of his. It was actually me, not my aunt. I still haven't forgiven my dad for that one.

I would greatly miss Impossible Germany if it were never played live again.

I think this list still stands three years later. Although I really do love Wishfull Thinking. I'm wondering if AGIB should be disqualified from my list. And every time I see Should've Been In Love listed as a least favorite, I want to go punch something. Anywho... Sky Blue Sky: Impossible Germany/Leave Me Like You Found Me Wilco(The Album): Bull Black Nova/Sonny Feeling

Berkeley 2005, 2007 & 2009. Lake Tahoe (Stateline) 2009. Bridge School Benefit 2008. Jeff Tweedy both nights at the Fillmore February 2006.

My two cats serve the same purpose. And they're both excellent fly catchers, except they always leave the fly carcass for me to vacuum up.

That's crazy. You sound like my sorta person. I'm all for spiders setting up shop out on my patio. They're not my favorite creatures on the planet, but they serve a purpose like everything else so I give them their space. Spiders that make their way indoors get gently escorted outdoors with my handy spider-catcher jar. And I figure if anyone should be an arachnophobe, it's me. I've been bitten by a spider hanging out in a garden glove, and nearly swallowed a daddy long leg that made his way into my coffee mug. Bees and wasps, on the other hand, scare the crap outta me. Cause those thi

That's caulk.

Hmmm. Well, all I can say is that in this instance, a long chain followed about how I should have picked a lyric earlier in the song so that a "sing-a-long" could have continued, which my aunt either didn't read or didn't get. Which is another reason I like doing lyrics, cause little sing-a-longs do spark up. Even with Wilco lyrics. Helps kill the boredom at work.

Well, considering I never post anything serious on my facebook, and all my friends are aware of it, posting random song lyrics in my status is just par for the course. Although now I do have family members on Facebook who don't get my particular sense of humor, and react seriously to stuff I write which kills the fun a bit. Hell, the other day I posted a lyric from Bohemian Rhapsody (the "nothing really matters to me" line), which everyone on the planet should know, and one of my aunts informed me that I do matter cause Jesus loves me.

I've done that one as well. But now that I have some older relatives as "friends" now, including my grandma, I was thinking of recycling this line to see what their reaction will be. Should be a lotta fun to watch.

Eight of my twenty made the cut. And I'm kinda surprised Poor Places took top honors, even though I included it on my own un-ranked list.

I don't have a spouse as of yet, but I have gotten comments for always playing Wilco in my car. Although these people cannot distinguish between Wilco and Loose Fur, so what do they know?

I've only made one successful Wilco convert, but I didn't go the mixed-CD route. I just shoved a few CDs in his hand and told him to listen to them. Since I had told him that Wilco is sometimes referred to as the "American Radiohead" I informed him that YHF is the album that best illustrates this. So that was the first one he listened to. Since then he's learned a few YFH songs on guitar, seen IATTBYH and gone to one Wilco concert. He's made me so proud.

And I was there... Still have the 42 nothings on my cell phone from that night.

Never been a fan of Third Eye Blind, but I do plan on clothing my children in Wilco-friendly clothing as soon as I start birthing them.

Thanks for posting this! NPR and Wilco: My two favorite things

Cause too many songs would be duking it out for the #1 spot. And I don't want to hurt their feelings.

My list in alphabetical order... Black Eye Bull Black Nova Chinese Apple Far, Far Away Hummingbird I Got You (At the end of the century) Jesus, Etc. Kamera Muzzle of Bees New Madrid Poor Places Pot Kettle Black Reservations Should’ve Been in Love Spiders Sunken Treasure Theologians Via Chicago Wishful Thinking Wreckroom No SBS made the cut. Impossible Germany could be crammed in my list somewhere. It gets an honorable mention instead.

Living in the Bay Area, I always think of the Embarcadero and the Ferry Building when I hear that one line. Also been to.. Deep chrome canyons of the loudest Manhattans FLA California (Stars) Arizona (Although never actually went in a hotel in Arizona) And it doesn't really count as a Wilco reference, but I've been to L.A. (Ruling Class - Loose Fur)

Mid-October is better for me. Somewhere around London, especially.

You mean the actual recording? It's a Number Station recording off the Conet Project. It's supposedly a radio transmission from Mossad, Israeli intelligence. Dude, beat me by, like, two seconds!

I second that emotion... so long as it is in October when I will be in the UK. (Ohhhhhh, that would be so sweet!!)

As a Wilco fan who is a chronic bad speller, I resemble that remark. (life long bad speller - possible symptom of dyslexia - haven't been tested yet to prove that theory - but I run everything through spell check five times, I'm so self conscious of it)
