Jeff Tweedy — 17 March 2019, Orlando, FL (Plaza Live)
knotgreen replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
Hey Paul, did Jeff say anything about White Wooden Cross? Referencing the track list posted on Bull Moose's site, it doesn't look like a Warmer track. As always, thanks for your reporting! I am counting down the days until Jeff's back in the Northeast! -
That'll be fun! Boston tix were nearly impossible when they came through on the last album cycle, and so I ended up not going. I wish I liked the new single more... Not sure I'm a big fan of the direction they've been headed in, but they do put on a great live show.

New album, I Am Easy To Find, from The National is coming out on May 17, 2019 and will be accompanied by a world tour. https://americanmary.com The first single You Had Your Soul with You: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBcVrb-snPk&list=PLIrpDAtP87O5I4mfwqT12WZcImQwARpXt&index=3&t=0s

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we've heard: Orphan, Family Ghost, Ultra Orange Room, and Evergreen? Jeff's played all of those solo, except for Ulta Orange Room, which was part of the Let's Go (So We Can Get Back) audiobook...

we are so lucky. jeff's recent output has been so great, in quantity and quality. warm has some of my favorite jt songs in all of his catalogue and i cannot wait to hear the sequel!

I’m not a Chicago local but I’m going to disagree with this. Avoid their pizza, but their grilled cheese and fries are fine by me. Proximity to the venue can’t be beat too.

Didn't Scott play with Jeff during his solo set in 2010? Family Gardener maybe? Would love for a Jeff/Scott Dear Employer.

I'm worried about Ryan. I hope that he gets the help that he needs. This is, of course, not an excuse for terrible behavior. It'll be hard for me to put on any of his albums any time soon, that's for sure. What a shame.
-
No outcry from me. It is interesting, though, that they do a pretty short European run in June and then return again 3 months later. The only show I'm aware of in between is Jeff's solo spot at NFF. Maybe the US will see some Wilco shows in July/August? Oh no, is this turning into an outcry?!
-
Yeah, but what an opportunity to see Tropical Fuck Storm and Hillbilly Moon Explosion on the same bill!

Today, Ryan Adams shared “Fuck The Rain” – the lead single from #BIGCOLORS. Download/stream the track, which features a guitar solo by John Mayer and Benmont Tench on the organ, here: https://ryanadams.lnk.to/FTheRainFP. “Check out this song it’s cool. Or don’t-we all might die trump is president. I love you, sincerely Ryan Adams.”

Jeff will be playing solo at Newport Folk Festival on Saturday, July 27. ISO: 2 tix!

I cannot keep up with the Tweedy content lately, but I'm glad I read this one... Fun little interview. Thanks for sharing.

Tweedy — 1 December 2018, Chicago, IL (The Hideout)
knotgreen replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
This is a very minor detail, but I noticed during the Colbert performance (& Saturday's live stream) that Spencer's kick drum has art that looks to be inspired by Let's Go Rain. When I saw that I assumed that he had it done b/c he'd be touring behind the album too. And re: another new album... I was just telling someone the other day how lucky I am that my favorite songwriter is so prolific. Jeff's output is so great (both in quantity and quality) & he doesn't seem to be slowing down. -
Auction: Jeff Tweedy Living Room Concert (Bidding Ends 12/14)
knotgreen replied to nalafej's topic in Just A Fan
Attending a Living Room show is on my bucket list. -
Sorry if I was curt - I didn’t mean to be but it might read that way. Those 2013 Largo shows are my most listened to Roadcases. I have the banter memorized at this point. I understand how special those shows are and I’m sorry you missed out this time around. Generally speaking, I think the band’s new model of announcing shows and having a presale two days later is good for fans as it gives scalpers less time to prepare. Unfortunately, it means that if you don’t follow the band on social media and are really “tuned in” there’s a chance of missing out - especially when the venue is a shoeb

The waiting is the hardest part. -
I believe it seats 130.

Those shows were announced nearly a month ago and sold out in minutes.

New Jeff Tweedy album November 30th (called WARM)
knotgreen replied to Oil Can Boyd's topic in Just A Fan
I'm really loving the newly released I Know What It's Like. One fun little lyrical connection between that song and Some Birds: Some Birds In my window/I have a twin/I look out/He looks in/He has a point/I applaud/Oh my goodness/Oh my god I Know What It's Like When the lights are dim/In my window I have a twin/I’m always looking out/And he’s always looking in -
I had a really nice time last night at the book talk. Those three songs were a real tease, though. Would've loved to have heard a couple more ;-) My favorite topic was one that I've heard Jeff cover elsewhere, but was especially well said last night. This is a crude retelling, but he mentioned something about a dichotomy between creativity and destruction, and how he wishes everyone had a creative outlet because it's much more difficult, if you're creating, to also be "destructing." I'm not doing the sentiment any justice with my retelling, but that really stuck with me. It was a real treat

I’m attending Boston show in a few days. Has anyone seen any mention of who is moderating that one?
