Thank you for posting this, since I never saw this when I looked at the email subject in my Inbox. That limited view only listed Jack White, Bob Weir, Jimmy Buffet and David Gilmour. Weird! Of course, when I actually clicked on the email there it was in big letters. I kinda figured that Nugs had to film at least one of these shows. Excited to see what they have in store.

Bull Moose Records had a listing for about a month for a 7 inch vinyl release with the correct tracks, but had a street date of April 1st. I special ordered it from them and it’s in limbo. I didn’t get any firm details (alt takes) on it, until that IG post today. There’s a decent chance it gets released to record stores after the shows. There’s an even better chance that this listing was a fluke. We’ll find out… https://www.bullmoose.com/p/35387272/wilco-war-on-war-im-the-man-who-loves-you

“All Across” and “Tired Of Taking It” do not ring any bells in my Tweedy Show memory of unreleased songs. The other ones he has played. In fact, he played “Hints” when John & Glenn showed up about a year ago. If you’re interested in tracking those down, here they are: “Love My Country/Choir USA” Ep. 146 “Still My Mother/I Am My Mother” Ep 206 ”Story To Tell” Episodes 176 & 196 “Hints” Episodes 156, 188, 193, & 195 All of that info is on Monty’s spreadsheet that he’s been maintaining on a regular basis. https://docs.google.c

“Circumcised” sounded familiar to me, so it felt like a perfect time to check out Monty’s list and he did play it way back on episode 182 in June 2021. Spencer even sang backing vocals on it. My brief notes have “it’s easy beginning when it’s ending.” as a lyric. Not sure if it popped up again under a different name. That’s amazing that he’s focusing on these new songs in a live setting. I also wonder where this batch will wind up.

Haven’t watched it yet, but TCM is playing the elusive Looking For Mr. Goodbar at midnight (or in 90 minutes EST). This is one of those oft talked about films that never had a DVD or Blu-ray release in the U.S. & shows up once every five years or so on cable. I believe the issue was the music rights which were rumored to be astronomical with all of the disco songs in the film. Others think it might be due to the subject matter & Diane Keaton’s dark role.

Thanks! It was more about not really being able to see who was behind Jeff in Mikael’s place.

I decided to try to see Ghostbusters: Afterlife yesterday, before all of the kids go on a holiday break this coming week. I was the only person in the auditorium. I thought that it was a beautiful film that hit all the right spots & emotions. It’s truly a love letter to the fans and it ends in an exciting place that made me fill with excitement. I think the timing of this film is rather perfect for the generation that grew up with it. It’s a perfect film to take your kids to and let them fall in love with another franchise. The young cast was all around terrific, especially Mcken

I decided to make Netflix Original Films my theme for November. I watched Sand Castle last night and was surprised when Jesus, Etc. was playing through the main character’s headphones. The film is set in 2003 at the beginning of the Iraq War.

I decided that it was time to venture out to one of my local theaters to spend Saturday afternoon with Wes Anderson. The French Dispatch was a terrifically fun time, but also a celebration of journalism and the written word. This was one of his best films, in terms of cinematography and art direction. I even think some of his sets were miniature. The film’s structure was an obituary, a travelogue & 3 short stories. It was tough to pick a favorite segment, but I loved seeing Adrien Brody spar with Benicio Del Toro in one of the stories. I won’t spoil the plot of that one. Frances McDormand
