Ugh! Sorry to read this, Boss. Hope things work out.

Almost all of Wilco's songs are about bongs.

In honor of the 50th anniversary of the rooftop concert, I listened to Let it Be yesterday. Still miffed that "Don't Let Me Down" didn't make it onto the album. Watched a YouTube video of the rooftop version of the song -- it bought a big 'ol lump to my throat.

Hilarious. Made my day!

Love this.

Chicago had 13 consecutive days of measurable snow (that will end today) and now comes the polar vortex.

Binge-watched the first season of The Kominsky Method on Netflix with Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin. Enjoyed it quite a bit. On to Season Three of True Detective.

Agreed. Youth & Young Manhood is a terrific album. The rest of their output is unlistenable, They have been on my axis of musical evil since their second album.

I'm stealing that one.

The Blind Boys From Alabama

"Peak Nadir" actually wouldn't be bad.

I have a friend who goes way back with Steve -- they worked at a restaurant together and wrote songs together in Nashville decades ago. Dinner fell through, but I did spend 40 minutes with Steve in the Green Room after the show. He could not have been nicer and more laid back. Big baseball fan! Great show and a memorable night.
