Passenger Sid

His bit on guys making their trucks more manly was really great.

The whole show was over at 10:40. Tweedy came on at right about 9:00. Comedian probably came on a little after 8:00 maybe.

I sat near the back and didn't notice any cell phones or cameras at all. I was actually surprised how quiet the audience remained during the songs. One guy felt he had to clap…badly…during the first couple songs, but that stopped. Annoying when people have to yell out requests, but with Tweedy, it's actually quite entertaining to hear how he might respond. Tweedy, or any artist, can't expect a full theater of people to ALL be on perfect behavior. On The Thanks I Get the artist/audience interaction seemed genuinely fun. Honestly, it's the most relaxed that Tweedy has seemed to me in the MANY ti

SUPER impressed with Jeff Tweedy last night. Maybe it's partly 'cause he hasn't done a solo show for awhile, or even been on a stage in awhile, but he sounded fresh and in was in good spirits. He had a mostly-good-natured back and forth with a fan who kept shouting requests and who kept clapping too loudly during songs (Tweedy said, "like a spark in a microwave"). Long Time Ago was a great surprise. As was One True Vine, which Tweedy humbly said Staples woulda done better had she been there, but NO WAY do I believe that. He nailed it! I could write more later, but the KC Star writer gives a

Solo tour kicks off tonight! Tweedy's got so much great stuff to choose from, it's impossible to think of even one song he'll DEFINITELY play. I couldn't guess. Maybe "Ballad Of The Opening Band", just because it's new? Regardless, whatever he decides to play will be great. It's cool he goes on these mini solo tours every so often.

Thanks for posting. Timothy Finn is a long-time music writer for the KC Star and he writes the article as if he very much respects Tweedy's contribution to music. And it's a snark-free; something rare in music commentaries.

Thanks for pointing to me Wilco's site. Tweedy's written some really great rock and pop songs over the years. But my favorites of his are the ones that are uniquely Tweedy sounding. Hard to explain...kind of haunting or reflective or mysterious. Songs like I listed above. I could add Hell Is Chrome, Lonely One, Less Than You Think, Via Chicago, Black Eye, Wait Up, Future Age and Radio King. Side-note. Tweedy's got a good sense of humor, based off of his live banter over the years. Surprised that's not reflected in more of his writing. Passenger Side, Pecan Pie, Bob Dylan's Beard, Heavy Metal

Really looking forward to seeing Mr. Tweedy next week in KC. Any chance he'll try out a new song or two? Really hope so. Not that he gives a rip what a long-time Wilco fan and Wilco concert-attendee like me wants to hear. But, just in case, what the heck....
