It's actually called Lullaby for Rafters and Beams.

I totally echo Tualla on this--go see these guys! They're super nice and have a great sound, to boot. Just wish they were coming to the East Coast...

I believe that one Jeff Tweedy has said in the past that "the second night is always better." Not just talking about his own band, but pretty much any band. FWIW.

From what I know about it (and from looking at my copy), it was a two-disc promo set put out by Warner Music Canada to promote Summerteeth. Disc 1 is basically an advance copy of the record. Disc 2 (the "and sum aren't" part of the title) is a mish-mash of album tracks and some live cuts. Here's the tracklisting--I'm sure this exists somewhere else, but I'm too lazy to go searching around for it: 1) I Must Be High (album version) 2) Pick Up The Change (album version) 3) Passenger Side (album version) 4) Monday (demo version) 5) I Got You (At The End of the Century) (album version) 6) Hot

I think the series has been really good so far and the credit really has to go to Ronen for having the idea and then putting it together. Glenn and Nels and company were great as always and Andrew Bird last week (it was last week, wasn't it?) was a huge treat! Looking forward to the next show in January...

Have a tremendous, stupendous, totally rad b-day, B! See ya soon!

Have a terifically awesome birthday, U! Here's to more of everything Heidi mentioned earlier, and to canyon hiking and setlist-book compiling and all-night writing and on and on...

hmmmmmm.......

The only thing I can think of adding at this point is that it was really great to see the electric Sunken Treasure again. After seeing it done acoustically so much at Jeff's solo shows, I had almost forgotten the different arrangement the song gets when done with electric guitars. And it's always nice to see Poor Places work its way back into the set. I noticed that Nels played exclusively lap steel for at least the first half of the song. If memory serves, I think he had played at least some of his part on the Jazzmaster in previous renditions. First time hearing Let's Not Get Carried Aw

Wish I had been there to see the "mayhem" for myself. I have to say that whatever Jeff did, I'm sure it was for good reason. You can't have people jumping up onstage whenever they feel like it. You don't know what they're going to do, for one. It's unlikely that the guy meant Jeff any harm, but at the very least, somebody getting on stage and being a dope is completely distracting to the performer and the audience, IMHO.

Yo Jeff, Can't add much that hasn't already been said, but thanks for all the work over the years. Enjoy retirement, play some golf, drink some pina coladas and all that jazz. And above all, don't be a stranger... Paul.

Mine was just in the plastic.

Those pictures look twangy.

I'm with you! If Wilco was to ever play in Idaho, I'd *so* find a way to be there.

Well, the last time the band played New York City proper was the New Year's Eve 2004 show at Madison Square Garden. Nothing really happened, other than much alcohol consumption and revelry. The only time anything has really "happened" in NYC was back in 1996 at Irving Plaza when they wound up playing after Johnny Cash -- you can read about that episode in Greg Kot's book. But whoever mentioned something "happening" earlier in this thread was just being dumb. As for the Irving Plaza rumor, seeing as how the club is already pretty booked for the rest of October, I kinda doubt it.

Hope you have an awesome birthday, Bridget!

Words have a way of being inadequate at times like these, but I just wanted to express how sorry I am for your loss. Jeff, your mom seemed like a great lady the couple of times I met her and it's a shame that she's gone far too soon. Since I can't be there in person, please accept a big cyber-hug and my deepest sympathies. --Paul.

it's on high road touring's site.

I, too, love the Andrew Hill disc! In other Nels news, I hadn't seen this posted yet, but forgive me if it was. Anyway, I think the same day that the Sunken Treasure DVD comes out--Oct. 24--is also the release date for the new Damsel record featuring Nels and Zach Hill from Hella. Also, it features Matt Zivich (who happens to be Wilco's guitar tech and a sound engineer). Sounds like it'll be a pretty cool disc to pick up, so I figured I'd give it a little shout-out in case it hasn't been mentioned already. Amazon doesn't have it listed, but I pre-ordered a copy through CD Universe. Here

i dunno why, but i think you might be in luck...

The funny thing is I totally know what shop he's talking about--it's called Minus Zero or something like that. I went there when I was last in London. Great little shop near the Portobello Road Market. It's only open on weekends, I think. I remember it because I wanted to buy this record from one of the men and he had gone home to tend to a broken pipe or something and the other guy couldn't sell it to me because it didn't have a price tag on it. So I had to come back a few hours later when the owner returned. Anyway, it's a little weird that the Tapes 'n Tapes guy would find ST there for su
