23. Although, people I just meet think I'm 16 or 17

Hope this wasn't covered already.

long overdue sense of stability drives Wilco on Sky Blue Sky

 

Jeff Tweedy always envisioned Wilco as a band more than a collective. So, he says, it

Bringing It All Back Home

 

Jeff Tweedy & Wilco go back to basics with Sky Blue Sky

Chicago feels sprawling. One moment dense, the next sparse, as various levels of construction seem to pervade the cityscape anywhere you go. Wilco

I know one has already been making the rounds, "One True Vine" anyone know of others?

Not making the rounds yet that I know of, but a while back in some magazine they were talking about the upcoming record and listed songs that were tracked so far and a song called "Glad It's Over" was one that was named.

I wanted to post this but I wasn't too sure where I should do so.

In case anyone is interested!! He and Snoop Dogg are the guests... that should be interesting!!

Ah! I was just coming here to post this!

1. Tom Waits

I couldn't have picked a better #1. Tom Waits is the most underappreciated artist by far!! Wilco should be #2!!

"Fuck me gently with a chainsaw"- Heathers

Pic of the actual cover:

Things are looking up for our dear Jeff Tweedy. He's spending time with the family, helping out around the house, smiling a lot more and playing cherry music with his band. Here, in light of Wilco's seventh LP, Sky Blue Sky, Tweedy sits down at the dinner table with Filter to discuss the prior storm surrounding his gang of No Depression allstars, their current easy breezy masterpiece, and the clear skies ahead.

Also, I found this from the May issue of Uncut Magazine:

Thank you, Wilco.

YES! thank you very much!!! GREAT SHOW!!!

I love when they do that little pause!!!

Love the transition into Spiders!!

Yeah, that was great!

Just three of us listening? I sure hope they keep this in roadcase for those of us who missed it.

I'm here too- just a little tired to talk!!

One By One

Next... Impossible Germany?

This is a bit of a bummer for me, but then i decided to click a link on that website which led me to this:

Apparently these stores also sell a bunch of exclusive stuff, and there are locations in Chicago. I'm gonna call the Chicago stores listed on this website and see if they have this compilation when the album comes out.

Cool, Alright!! Virgnia Beach, Va- Volume CD's That's right down the street from me!!! I wonder if they'll get the bonus disc album there!?!? Also, the people who work there are always very nice, they actually gave me a whole bunch of Tom Waits 'Orphans' Promo things when that album came out last year. Hopefully they'll have some 'Sky Blue Sky' stuff I can get!!

I think this is right, but someone might want to verify it because I was recording everything on a scrap of paper. Great show (songs and banter), especially "Acuff-Rose" at the end. Thanks so much to Sue and Jeff for putting this together.

I didn't read through all the pages so I don't know if its been asked- but what's "The Community Song?"

What are tha chances that they will add a Virginia date in between NC and NJ.

JUN-20 CHARLOTTE, NC OVENS AUDITORIUM

 

JUNE -21 NORFOLK, VA THE NORVA kind of slim I know, but I wanted to see what it would look like ...oh well.

 

JUN-22 RED BANK, NJ COUNT BASIE THEATRE

the Charlotte show is a little bit too far away for me to drive...hopefully they'll add a VA date.

 

-justin

Yeah, I'm with you on that one. Hopefully they'll play The Norva in Norfolk again, that last time they were here was September 2004

Also, I would like to add this part from "Impossible Germany."

But this is what love is for

To be out of place

Gorgeous and alone

Face to face

With no larger problems

That need to be erased

Nothing more important than to know

Someone

These are my favorites:

This part from "You Are My Face"

I have no idea how this happens

All of my maps have been overthrown

Happenstance has changed my plans

So many times my heart has been outgrown

Now everybody

MTV: Is there a line or a song in A Ghost Is Born that sums it all up?

 

Tweedy: "I'm a cherry ghost" [from "Theologians"], because it's still fun to sing in a strange way every night. I really get excited singing that line. I have no idea what it means, but every night when I sing it I feel refreshed. Invigorated. It's beautiful.
