To paraphrase Waylon Jennings, "I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired." My Outrage Meter is nearly worn out.

^^^ While I'm not a fan of the Chicago Theater, this is an awesome post on multiple levels. ^^^.

The Robyn + Wilco cover of "Tomorrow Never Knows" was incredible. This was my first opportunity to hear the Ode to Joy songs live. Far, far FAR superior to the album versions. A great night (as it always is).

Just listened to that song last week.

Wilco & Robyn Hitchcock!

[All I got for Christmas was a] "Box Full of Sweaters."

"[Don't] Forget the Flour(s)" A song about baking Christmas cookies.

If past is prologue at the Chicago Theater, I expect the people seated near me will carry on conversations during Robyn Hitchcock's entire set and during Wilco songs they don't recognize. I will be annoyed and swear to never return to the Chicago Theater. But I will.

Another vote for Nick Lowe's "Quality Street" and for Low's "Christmas."
