    One song part 3

    Ruby, let down your golden hair

    When I'm standing at the bottom of your stairs

    Ruby, I can see your TV on

    But the people there, they flicker and they're gone

    So let down your golden hair for me tonight

    Let down your golden hair for me to climb

    Just like an old-time telegraph man

    I came here with a simple job to do

    'Cause that news coming down the wire

    Says that your head's on fire

    And I'm trying to get a message through to you

     

    Ruby, you ain't lonely yet

    With your crystal and your Russian cigarette

    Ruby, haven't you heard before?

    What good's the finest tower when it hasn't got a door?

    So let down your golden hair for me to climb

    Let down your golden hair for me tonight

    Just like an old-time telegraph man

    I came here with a simple job to do

    'Cause that news coming down the wire

    Says that your bed's on fire

    And I'm trying to get a message through to you

     

    Ruby

     

    I'm that old-time telegraph man

    And I came here with a simple job to do

    'Cause that news coming down the wire

    Says that your wheel's on fire

    And I'm trying to get a message through to you

     

    I'm that old-time telegraph man

    And I came here with a simple job to do

    'Cause that news coming down the wire

    Says that your world's on fire

    And I'm trying to get a message through to you

    My only complaint with a set this massive is having to do a hell of a lot of getting up to flip and change records. I guess it will work my abs a little.

    Sweet summer night and I'm stripped to my sheets

    Foreman is leaking; my AC squeaks

    And a voice from the clock says "You're not gonna get tired"

    My bed is a pool and the wall's on fire

    Soak my head in the sink for a while

    It chills my neck and it makes me smile

    But my bones gotta move and my skin's gotta breathe

    You pick up the phone and I'm so relieved

     

    You slide down the stairs to the eager street

    And the sun is left with slippery feet

    And I want to walk around with you

    And I want to walk around with you

    (And be here with you)

     

    It doesn't really matter, I'll go where you feel

    Home for the breeze, get a midnight meal

    I'll point in the windows, you point out the parks

    Rip off your sleeves and I'll ditch my socks

    Dance to the songs from the cars as they pass

    Weave through the cardboard, smell that trash

    Walkin' around in our summertime clothes

    Know where to go where our bodies go

     

    And we'll breath the dawn in its morning blues

    With purple yawns, you'll be sleeping soon

    And I want to walk around with you

    And I want to walk around with you

     

    When the sun goes down we'll go out again!

     

    Don't cool off

    I like your warmth

     

    Let's leave the sound of the heat for the sound of the rain

    It's easy to sleep when it wets my brain

    It covers my rest with a saccharine sheen

    Kissing the wind through my window screen

    But restless is causeless and I cannot hide

    So much of my mind that it spills outside

    Do you wanna go stroll down a financial street?

    Our clothes might get soaked

    But the buildings sleep

     

    And there's no one pushing for a place

    As we enter at an easy pace

    And I want to walk around with you

    I want to walk around with you

     

    Just you, just you, just you, just you

    Jeff Tweedy -- 3/13/10, Chicago, IL

    in After The Show

    Compared to Friday's show, it was definitely the crazier / more spontaneous show of the two. Lots o' drunk St. Patty's early revelers clogging up the streets near the Vic, despite the miserable weather, and some of that spilled over into the crowd. Plenty of drunken requests, talkers, videotapers (despite Jeff's repeated admonishments to stop videotaping), crazed drunken women shouting completely random nonsensical things, etc.

     

    Some great songs heard last night - Shakin' Sugar / Alone sounded great, and I loved hearing my request (Chinese Apple).

     

    It was kinda lame when Jeff opened the crowd up for questions and some jackass asked him about Jay Bennett. Jeff stated he had nothing to say about it and moved on from there.

     

    The Jeremy chord strumming thing was very cool, he was a 14-year-old dude who was very pumped to be up there, raised his hands victoriously. I don't think he'll forget this show any time soon.

    What a fun night! I'll tell you something: I never thought I'd hear "Monkey Mess" live.

     

    Me neither, complete with a "Monkey Walk" afterwards. Broken Arrow sounded great, too, plus The Losing End, lots of Neil last night. He was right in front of me and Gewee when he went off the PA for Dreamer in my Dreams and Acuff Rose, I dare say we were getting a "spittle shower" of sorts during it. :stunned

     

    Such an awesome show. Back for Round 2 today and getting an early song request in, but it's supposed to be another miserable day of rain and wind. :ninja "Sprinter" (not quite Spring, not quite Winter) in Chicago sucks.

    Max and Andy are joining him:

     

    Conan O’Brien to Launch Two-Month, 30 City “Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television” Tour

     

    New York, NY – March 11, 2010: Conan O’Brien will headline a live comedy/music review that begins a two-month, 30-city tour on April 12th. The aptly titled “Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television” tour kicks off in Eugene, Oregon, and will take Conan and a cast that will include longtime sidekick Andy Richter and the former Tonight Show band to theaters in at least 20 states and two Canadian provinces.

     

    “It was either a massive 30-city tour or start helping out around the house,” says O’Brien.

     

    American Express is sponsoring the tour and ticket prices will start at $39.50. It promises to be a night of music, comedy, hugging, and the occasional awkward silence. Tickets are available now at www.TeamCoco.com or through www.Ticketmaster.com. Full list of dates is below.
