Thanks for the help. I include anything by the Beatles both as a band or solo as well as anything Wilco or Tupelo, or Golden Smog, etc. written and sung by Tweedy. It gives me more flexibility to match up themes, sounds, etc.

I am currently not at my personal computer nor do I have my iPod handy but I've recently put about three hours of Beatle/Wilco tracks together. I can recall a few combinations that are pretty cool. Try Get Back and I Might in that order. Also try Strawberry Fields and Poor Places. I also like Martha My Dear, Hummingbird, Your Mother Should Know, Capitol City and Honey Pie. Another combination I like is What is Life and You Never Know. When I get home I'll post some others. I'm currently administering SATs to the poor suckers who think they are going to go to college, graduate and find a high

The interviewer had no clue about Wilco but that made the interview pretty funny. Tweedy handled it well. Did sound like Solid Sound not a definite this coming year. Mentioned possibility of skipping a year. Might have to cancel those hotel reservations for June 22-24 before I get billed.

Jeff now playing Dawned On Me live in the studio. Great stuff...

I Must Be High. The first Wilco song I ever heard. And this...

One Sunday Morning is such a good closer that when it comes on I eject the CD.

And...

Sean Lennon serenades OWS...

How could I forget? This should have been pretty obvious to me. By the way, Hoodoo Voodoo is just fine for a Wilco show closer and Too Far Apart for a record closer.

Nailed it.

Does anyone remember the post from Spencer Tweedy on his blog last fall about a trip to New Mexico or some such state in the South West that the Tweedy's took that he was not allowed to speak about other than that they were there? Could some sort of weekend recording seesion been held related to new Mermaid Ave. material? Just a thought.

Things are getting ugly in Boston... http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2011/10/12/red_sox_unity_dedication_dissolved_during_epic_late_season_collapse/?page=full http://player.stream...player/?id=WEEI

The Sox have not won a playoff game since 2008. It's probably time for a change. Thanks for the two championships, Theo. Good luck with the Cubbies. Chicago's compensation to Boston should be taking on Jon Lackey and his miserable contract. I can see Francona ending up as the Cubs next manager as well.

Right back at you...Phillies join Red Sox in race to see who will be the off-season champions.
