    Down from Boston for the night, with my best buddy, who hasn’t seen them since ‘03. Should be fun…

     

    I'd love to hear your buddy's perspective on the live band now versus 2003! Have a great time!:rock

    and... Sky Blue Sky 2023 is a go!


    (weird that no one posted about it already... slackers! or just indifferent?)

     

    I was waiting for you to post about it. B)

    Nah, I should've but I've got family emergencies going on (everybody is mostly ok) so I've been distracted. I do appreciate you posting about it. It's a very nice lineup and I'm trying to convince myself I can afford it. I wish it wasn't in December but I suppose that's the sweet season down there.

    Bad day for this question. Just started another round of chemo on Thursday. It's really nasty stuff. Will have another 4+ hour IV in 2 weeks then none for 4 months. Questionable if it's working at this point. As a bonus it's putting me into the poor house due to our fine medical insurance system. I'm running out of fight & am trying to figure out if  it's worth trying. Sorry to be Dougie Downer. I'm not in a good place right now. Hope everyone else is doing better than that.

     

    Oh jeez, Chuck, I'm so sorry you're having such a rough go of it! The American medical system is a crock. I can't believe we haven't done anything to correct the situation. You are far from alone. I hope the chemo has good effects. Be very gentle with yourself, and don't put any demands on yourself other than to rest and heal. Nothing else is important right now. We love you!

    How Are You Weathering These Times?

    The world is so different lately from almost anything you might call "normal". A LOT of struggling going on. :unsure

    I hope my beloved friends & fellow Wilco fans are alright, muddling through, but I feel like there's absolutely NO shame in if that isn't the case. Jeebus, times're tough. We are all tasked with holding it together in a world that's insane. Is this how it felt for my dad in 1943?

    My point being, how's it going? How are you, personally? I'm okay. Trying to get my garden in the ground early after a couple summers of my gardens frying in insane 116 degree temps. Not normal, thanks, climate change. :brow

    Politics are horrible. So much wrongheadedness and wasted time at a pivotal time in history! SO Frustrating!

    Covid isn't over, so that caution governs my life still.

    I'm so goddam tired just persevering. 

     

    Anyway, I'm pretty good, given our circumstances, but I'd love to hear how the rest of you are faring. We don't live in an easy world.

    Let's talk about it. How're you all dealing?

    i finally spent some quality time w/ the record, and streamed it back to back today. easily their best record since i would say Wilco (The Album), maybe even SBS. "Mystery Binds" might be my favorite of the album.

    Love Mystery Binds!

    Another Grammy!

    Go, Wilco! YAY YHF! 😁

     

    The trick seems to be, if Jeff stays home he wins. A tricky but apparently effective strategy! 😄❤️

    Sending my sympathies to all of our members currently shivering in these insanely low temperatures, ice, and snow. I hope at least you have power! I guess the extreme Northeast is getting the worst of it, but other areas like Texas also sound icy and awful!

    Keep yourselves warm and sheltered. If you have to go out, bundle up and be prepared for whatever circumstances. Let people know where you are, where you're headed, and how you're doing! 

     

    Lots of love,

    Jeff Announces Starship Casual

    in Just A Fan

    Posted

    Today I received my official Jeff Tweedy Starship Casual Captain's Club membership card. I'm pretty sure that waving this at any doorman at any exclusive club anywhere in the civilized world will get you immediate red carpet entry. No need ever again to make silly reservations at 4 Michelin starred snooty restaurants! Just wave the card. Free upgrades to first class when you fly, too, if I'm to believe the things my imagination comes up with!

    Thanks Jeffy! I feel loved. I plan to show my card in all sorts of ridiculous situations where it may be helpful, like trying to get out of a speeding ticket..."Here's my license and registration, officer, and you might want to take a look at this card too."
