Well I'm just through the door tonight and thoroughly exhausted, but let me just say, AMAZING show tonight, and I can't wipe the smile off my face! I'll let someone who's had more sleep give you more details, I just wanted to say THANK YOU, Tweedy, for a terrific set yet again. Much better crowd tonight, mostly people were in their seats on time and appreciative and seemed to know the songs more than last night's audience...no outbreaks of applause at some of the songs' "false endings", which kind of stepped on the final lines last night. Jeff had some fun ragging on the previous night's lame

I've watched just the first two episodes and agree totally with you! Great stuff. I can't wait to catch up to see Mike's backstory!

Yep, great lineup! Thanks Wilco!!!

Come on, Minus 5!

One of these years, just to keep things interesting, Wilco should NOT announce the lineup, at all. They should let folks come for a complete mystery lineup. I know I'd go!

Yes, well, I can't be blamed if they change their minds at the last minute!

She's only saying that because I made a prediction yesterday that the lineup would be announced today! C'mon, Wilco, out with it, before you undermine my supposed psychic abilities!

I'm all filled to the brim with the Wilco love tonight, after this magnificent evening of Wilco's music as covered by local L.A. bands. Bravo to all the musicians who took part! I can honestly say that I was blown away by the talent and devotion shown by the various musicians. We got everything from a spunky "I'm the Man" (with a terrific female lead singer) to a moody, atmospheric "Radio Cure" to a stompingly joyous "Monday" to a roaring "Kamera", an hypnotic "Handshake Drugs", a blistering "Impossible Germany", a soaring "Pot Kettle Black", and on and on, even to a wonderfully troubadour-esq

This sounds fun and it's FREE! The Satellite presents A Tribute to WILCO featuring performances by Misty Boyce, Anthony Polcino, Jerry Borge, The Gimme 5's, Charlie Wadhams Trevor Minear, Brett Farkas, Maxim Ludwig, The Far West, Nicole Eva Emery, Duniven, and more TBA! 02/17 DOORS: 8:30 PM / SHOW: 9:00 PM FREE! Longtime local club-goers will know the Satellite by its old name, Spaceland. I'll probably always call the place Spaceland. A great little club.

You have me intrigued! I love history stuff. I'm going to try to remember to watch that, thanks.

Stay safe and warm all of you who're affected. Try not to go stir crazy being stuck indoors.

Wish I could have been there! Sounds great. Some year I'm going to make it to Todos Santos.

Welcome back, chanman. I love your post and agree. Real power to this album, such understated beauty that keeps unfolding with time and repeated listens.

I really enjoyed reading this. 40 days of steady kindness without slipping into the occasional bit of snarky commentary? I don't know if I could do it, but I'd admire the hell out of anyone who gave it a sincere try. I nominate Raspberry Jam as our VC entrant. Let us know (nicely!) how it goes, RJ!

I hope to be there, Drew! That sounds pretty awesome! Enjoy the process, despite the madness!

Baby #2 is so fun...you're much more relaxed, and it's wonderful watching the sibling relationship develop! Congratulations! Take good care of the wife...make her put her feet up more often, and make her a nice cup of herbal tea or something.

Baby number which, remphish? Smells like flowers, You have my deepest support as you face this. I've been there. Just keep taking it one day at a time, that's the only advice I have. xo

Let us know if it's any good.

You're ambitious! Good luck with all of it, and please come do my house next! Especially the pool.

As we head into this fresh new year (with all our old baggage!) what are you hoping for? I don't have any grandiose plans like my sister's big trip to Italy (jealous, I admit it ) but I do have plans for some upgrades to life: a new car for me and a new mattress because the old one sags just enough to make my back ache a little. And when I say new car, I mean a used car that is new to me. I have zero interest in taking on an auto loan! Beyond that, I hope to see a bunch of you at Solid Sound for the best festival out there & the best group of friends to enjoy it with. Just hoping for e

Boss Tweedy, we've all been there and we can sympathize more than you imagine. I lost my dad in 2012, exactly on my 30th wedding anniversary. What an odd thing it feels now, to celebrate that day...and yet Dad would want me to, because life does go on. I wish you and yours a beautiful 2015, a year that restores your faith in every way, and I wish that to every member of VC. Beltmann, it's hard to believe it's been 9 years since you lost your beloved brother. It seems both much longer ago, and yet also like it was just yesterday. I know you know what I mean. The same love and support is still

Wishing all of us a beautiful and peaceful and prosperous and exciting 2015!

That new song that Pat worked with him on sounded pretty great!

That put a big smile on my face! Jeff & Cookie Monster together, what a moment!

Really lovely, Derek!
