The Sky Blue Sky songbook has very detailed tab, solos, notes as to open tunings for particular songs, etc. Several of the songs have tabs for multiple guitars. In response to questions...yes, it has the solo for Impossible Germany, and the tab for that song is 12 or 13 pages long so it is pretty detailed. The tab for Please Be Patient With Me is very detailed too. I had a ton of fun working through the tab for the solo in Sky Blue Sky last night. And the tabs do vary from what has been posted to this site by its members in the past. The Wilco Songbook (which was released last year an

I received the Sky Blue Sky songbook this afternoon, which contains chords and tab for every song on the record. Somehow I missed that this was coming out, but it was released October 1 and is available at Amazon (doesn't appear to be available at wilcoworld yet). As far as I can tell at this point, the book contains tab that appears to be very accurate (and it certainly sounds that way to my ears). After just an hour or so of noodling around with it, I highly recommend it.

Not sure if this has been discussed, but I noticed that Breedlove is introducing a Jeff Tweedy limited edition guitar. Very limited run (25 guitars with Indian Rosewood back and sides; 5 guitars with Brazilian rosewood back and sides), very steep retail price ($6,000 for the IR, $8,500 for the BR). http://www.breedloveguitars.com/instrument...weedy/index.php

The new songbook arrived today. It is difficult for me to say this, but I'm very disappointed. There is no tab. Just words and chords. Which would be cool, if the chords were accurate. But I'm pretty sure that they are not, especially when compared against what we've all seen at the shows and what we've read other places. For example, the new songbook shows that "At Least That's What You Said" is played with the chords of Am, G and C...no capo. We've all seen Tweedy play it with the capo at the 5th fret, dropped D tuning, out of Em. I understand that capoing at the 5th fret and play

That weekend we saw them three times: Stubb's on Saturday night, ACL Festival on Sunday night, ACL taping on Monday night. It was an awesome weekend. To answer abuharabi's question, only one band plays at the taping. For the 2004 taping, the band played 16 songs...setlist is below from WilcoBase.com. Of course, only 5 or 6 songs made it on the show. I have hope that the entire set will be released in the future on DVD or CD as part of the Live from Austin, Texas series, but whether that happens is anyone's guess. 1. Muzzle Of Bees 2. Company In My Back 3. Hummingbird 4. Hell

At the Austin shows, he used the 12 string Martin for One by One and Hesitating Beauty on Tuesday night and Bob Dylan's Beard and Heavy Metal Drummer on Wednesday night.

I'm almost certain that the Gibson L-00 he played on Tuesday night in Austin is a new Gibson "1937 L-00," which is part of Gibson's Legends Series that was introduced at the NAAM show last week. Gibson made and sold a handful of those guitars in 2006 as part of a pilot run and I bet Jeff picked one up then. He only played it for one song on Tuesday night (can't remember which song) and didn't pick it up during the Wednesday night show. I was surprised to see that he had 2 of the Santa Cruz 12 fretters on stage. Also was surprised to see that he didn't bring along the Gibson B-25 that he's

There were actually two up at the time. I won one of them and the other one got pulled early. Mine came in the mail today. I've been looking for that book for 6 or 7 years. Those last 10 days of waiting almost killed me.
