It's WAY outside my budget (the last two times as well, but it seems to have gone up in price far beyond the inflation rate in the USA) but I'm a huge FJM and Sylvan Esso fan, so I'm happy for those who can make it. I do wonder if opening it up to a second hotel means the crowd will be much bigger? That doesn't seem awesome. But Mexico is beautiful and going there and hanging out while listening to some amazing artists, does sound a good time. Enjoy those who can make it!

If it’s no longer on the Instagram it’ll likely be posted by Susie to YouTube at some point down the line. Might take a little bit.

Jeff sang "I'll Fight"! That determined fan must've been super happy. And as a big fan of the song so am I. I need to go check out the Instagram feed. Thanks for all the write ups. These have been fantastic (and while I saw Friday in person, it's nice to get the recap and detailed set list.) Hopefully there will be Road Case versions of the shows.

Jeff Tweedy January 5, 6, 7, & 8 2023 at Largo [Los Angeles, California]

Hi all! I can no longer make it on Sunday night (thankfully also have tickets for Friday) so I wanted to see if anyone here might want to purchase a pair of tickets at face value. I'd have to meet you at Largo at 6:30 or 7pm on Sunday, which is when I think the ticket box opens, to pick up the tickets and then hand them off to you (if you get there earlier, I can meet you in line.) Let me know! -
Jeff Tweedy January 5, 6, 7, & 8 2023 at Largo [Los Angeles, California]

Woohoo! I got tickets for two of the nights. Very excited! -
I'm with Beltmann. Jeff mentioned in Esquire they had initially been working on an "art pop" record before shelving it (unfinished) because they got excited by the idea of making a country album. The first idea sounded a lot more fun and interesting to me, and that charity single "Tell Your Friends" they released in 2020, while not super innovative maybe, seemed to be pointing in the direction of a bigger, not stripped-down, sound. But then we got something not far afield from the Tweedy solo albums. I'm sure if I don't listen to it for a few weeks, once I get over my expectations

Just a heads up that tickets for the rescheduled Largo shows are still available! https://largo-la.com/

My guess (pure speculation) is that they're hoping that the Delta variant goes back down as quickly as it did in the UK (seems less likely here, sadly), and then they'll require proof of vaccination. If numbers are like they were in June by the fall and everyone attending is vaccinated, seeing a show inside might be fine? Note, that even with that big outbreak in Provincetown a few weeks back, nobody died as they were vaccinated. That spot is a lot more crowded than a Wilco show (and yes, the goal is no one getting sick from going to a show, not no one dying, but ideally neither ha

Hoping those LA Shows are indeed still postponed and not cancelled, as I got lucky and got good seats!🤞

Thanks @u2roolz for all the episode summaries all year. Super appreciated. And nothing but appreciation for the Tweedys this year. I spent New Years Eve of 2004 watching Jeff (at the Madison Square Garden show) so it was good to do it again. And I loved that they played those Replacement songs tonight. There's that old bootleg (from a show in San Francisco in '97) where Jeff says "Everything we do is based on the Replacements", and it was nice to hear him give a similar tribute tonight. How I would love Jeff to produce a Paul Westerberg album, so my two favo

But yours is more up to date! (I missed episode 81, apparently!)

Looking forward to the release! How lucky are we to be fans of an artist who is so incredibly prolific! So, from what I can tell, the new songs he's played on The Tweedy Show that are not on the album are... 1) I'd Rather Be Alone (from Episode 2 of The Tweedy Show) 2) Baby, You're So Miserable (from Episode 5 of The Tweedy Show) 3) Half-Life (which might be Half-Asleep on the new album? It's an Ode to Joy outtake played on Episode 30, and would make a great album closer.) 4) It's Been a Bad Day Lately (from Episode 40 of The Tweedy Show.) 4) Cold Water Falling (a work in progress
