Great show. I like the Bijou, my first time there.

I caught Atlanta and Knoxville so I'm dragging a little today.

Two unique experiences in their own right.

 

So you guys keep talking about the gal from Mich......well

how about the gal who yelled, "You are in Knoxvvviiiiiiillllllllllleeeeeeeeee,

Tenerssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee." Jeff stated, "Please tell me that

wasn't a real accent." LOL. From row 5 floor I couldn't see her in the balcony

but I thought she was the gal I heard screaming out all night (play She's a Jar).

She would have been in the balcony left, or stage right.

 

So these the same gals, 2 different?

 

Whats up with caps off sold cokes and water but beers sold with the pop top

still on. "Reminds me oof my Dad.......Y'all drinking beers out there."

LOL, someone even offered Jeff a beer and he replied something like,

"I guess you haven't read the many rehab stories. " Handled it well.

 

All in all a great 2 nights,and awaiting some Wilco dates. Australia anyone?

More like...."You are in Knocksveal, Tennasay". Yes, she was yelling all night, and I might add that she was sitting in my row along with her crew. I overheard her say it was her first Jeff solo/Wilco show. I believe they around the ripe age of 21 or 22.

Must have not completely cut and pasted my setlist from Word, because I have Wait up and Ruling Class listed. However, I did totally forget the Wishful Thinking, Chinese Apple and Airline though.

Anyone listening to the webcast?

ahhh he played cars cant escape. i yelled for it and he referenced the request but i think he was going to play it anyway. mountain bed and acuff rose melted me.

Lots of requests being thrown around. Loved the part when he said....I'm going need your help on Jesus, etc.....he starts in on it and someone lets out a hoot....he makes the comment, "Whhhhhy....you knew it was coming" All in good fun!

Mtn bed was the highlight for me.

Edit: Thanks Sarah....knew I left a few out.

Good times! Jeff was in rare form and seemed to be enjoying the experience, even though at the end it was getting a little monotonous with the requests. However, he seemed to take it in stride. Love the Jeff Leppard story and the lot shirt....."Pour some Tweedy on me" I always love going to shows at Bijou. The sound is so crisp. Probably my favorite theatre with the Tabernacle right behind it.

I tried to remember the setlist, but with all the banter it was kind of hard to keep up. In no particular order and leaving out a few

In closing, I had "that" guy behind me.....that guy who sings along to every song, even when Jeff doesn't request it. It was fine until the no PA tunes and finally a girl said "Seriously dude". All in all, it was a great night. My first Tweedy solo show after many years seeing UT and Wilco.

anybody want to guess which song he leads off with?

 

my guess is she's a jar.

I'm going with Spiders. Looking forward to the show.

What time do you think he will hit the stage.....9ish?
