My explanation on all of this for me personally comes down to age. I once read an interview where Tweedy talks about not being able to hear music like he once did. That he struggled to find it as emotionally engaging as say when he was 19 or 20. I agree 100%. For me Being There and Summerteeth were not cerebral, they were a roller coaster ride on a gut level. I hung on every word. I was about 20 at the time, think back and you'll remember. Now at the age of 30 when Sky blue Sky comes out, I have moments of that, but mostly I'm coming at it from a more brain oriented place (that sounds stupid). My example would be "You Are My Face", lyrically it sounds cool, but doesn't punch me in the gut, and then I think man that guitar part is cool, and I started thinking and thinking, instead of like the first time I heard "Sunken Treasure" when my reaction was I'm crying all of a sudden.
Hmmm, good point. Maybe this is why I love SBS so much. I'm 21, and the first time I heard You Are My Face and Side With The Seeds I was hit very hard emotionally. Those songs just get inside of me, make me respond without thought. It's a beautiful thing.

glad you all had a great time, and I'm so happy you got to hear your song Mountain Bed!
did anyone talk to the band afterwards, or find out if the Total Pros would be along for the whole tour? I would be so excited if they played in Boise and Spokane!
-
at the beginning of the hour, Jeff said that they were shooting for a spring release of the new album...!!!
-
i'm sending some "Remember the Mountiain Bed" thoughts to the band. they HAVE to play it tonight!
-
I think his harmonies over the years have brought out the best in Tweedy and added a facet to the sound in which Wilco wouldn't be Wilco without it.
yeah, John's harmonies just fit perfectly with Jeff's voice. it's a great combo!
-

Yeah, the difference between Americans and Canadians is, when one of our people transporters is taken over by a bunch of crazies we band together and “let’s roll” – Canadians on the other hand, act like cowardly Canadians.
Y’all need to grow a sack.
-
40 some people and nobody helped..had a gun, a cup of coffee to throw in his face, anything?
we Canadians generally don't carry around guns with us wherever we go. i've never actually seen a gun or held a gun in my life, and I hope i never do (except for in museums, etc.).
-
'One Wing' might be 'You Are My Face' good.
Thanks for the tunes! I am getting into Sunny Feeling too.
