As terrified and anxious as I know we all are, today I send out my love to all of VC, and my conviction that the United States is going to weather this storm and move beyond the lunacy and hatred. We ARE better than this! Get out tomorrow, if you haven't already, and VOTE. Make your voice heard. Get your loved ones to a polling place too. Let them add their voices. When we all speak, we find out we are a good and decent country with a bright furure. We don't need to follow a dark path. Let's go with joy instead. And science, and progress, and inclusion, for a start.

This reminded me of the little kid who called churches "Jesus stores".

I love Steve Wynn, he's great! that must've been a blast.

Bbop, you've outdone yourself. I laughed so hard at the canapés that I started to choke & had to sit forward in my chair, before I could read the rest. Aww, Jeff Tweedy, where would we be without your outlook? It's a treasure. Thank you for documenting these days, Paul.

Loving your reportage as always, bbop! Elizabeth Moen is great. What a voice!

This is an extensive and pretty amazing collection of artists and songs! And a great chance to give support to struggling hurricane victims.

You big meanie. It has unicorns, and pink! If they couldn't choose mine (well I had stamped it with my "Fuck Trump" stamp several times) then Clementine's was a deserving 2nd choice. I love Wilco-O's version too!

Well damn these sound good!

There was a joke to the effect that "Some are (summer) teeth, some aren't" but I don't remember more context.

Sending so much love and gratitude to my favorite music man. You are such a force for good in the world! Have a glorious birthday with your sweet family! I"m always looking forward to my next chance to see you and be transported by your talent.

Nope, nothing yet. The SSF beef jerky has been made...lots to share so hit me up at ssf!

Dear bbop, I've been reading your reviews with appreciation and admiration for years, but this one so perfectly captures the zeitgeist of the night, the energy in the room...you've outdone yourself! It's a truly great review.

I wanna hear "Ian Dury".

This is off-topic a bit but in organizing my old ssf souvenirs, I've discovered I have an extra little Solid Sound #6 schedule booklet from 2019. I don't need this extra so if somebody out there needs a ssf souvenir from 2019, just ask!

Welcome to Via Chicago! I hope someone has that beer can for you!

Terrific review, Vince!

I saw clips from that show...she & the band were on fire, and having so much fun!

How can anyone not get swept up in this gorgeous album? It has surely proven to have staying power. The songs at 25 still feel so fresh! Congratulations, Wilco!

I have been educated; thank you. Patron saint of the soccer. Now I get it. GO St. David GO!!!

Who, please, is St. David?

I hope you're right!

What a great piece! Thanks for sharing it!

I will be there with you to celebrate such a good life. I still can't quite fathom that he's gone.

How can you NOT hate that "EYE Ee Eye EE Eye" part in Eye Will Always Love You OOO OO OOOOO? Good call, Jeff.

This place will never be the same. Farewell, dear Lotti! may you find the great icehole in the sky.
