    A Cherry Ghost
  1. Uncanny. How do you know I play golf, are you watching me? Do I need to scan my computer? Fuck.
  2. Standing unto itself is in not necesarrily douchery, but if there is a douche at a concert, he is standing (and he is fist-pumping, and he is talking, and it's all for him). If a douche sits attentively at a concert and goes completely unnoticed, is he really a douche?

Dancing is cool, standing blows. No one stood until the encore at the Ryman last year, and that is the best Wilco show that I have seen (apparently a good enough performance for inclusion in the new DVD).
