Hoodoo Man Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Whoa, was that a new song, or "You Were Wrong" from the first Loose Fur record? See, I'm not sure about that. I'm ashamed to admit that I don't own Loose Fur's first. That very well could have been the song he played. Sorry if I got your hopes up! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zack a. Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Whoa, was that a new song, or "You Were Wrong" from the first Loose Fur record? see, i thought it was "you were wrong," but i swear he said afterwards that the song was going to be on the new record. maybe i'm also getting the banter mixed up, as there was a lot of it. banter highlights:1) "what's your favorite side?" -- jeff's discussion about memphis' great food led to a free-for-all between jeff and the audience about favorite side dishes / "vegetables" as we call them in the south. 2) "the game" -- after the scatological humor at the beginning of the show jeff said, "remind me later to tell you about this game i know," which turned out to be the following: take any band name and imagine its inspiration came from a specific shit. literally. the audience began yelling band names, and some of the more hilarious ones were: the rolling stones, weezer, green day, black sabbath, big star, muddy waters, howlin' wolf. someone yelled "the beach boys" and jeff said, "i think you found the only band name that doesn't work in this game. good job." anyway. outstanding sound in that room, and a great show. i told my friend the only way he could have made me happier was by playing for about seven hours longer. ;-) the mic-less "acuff" was a life moment for me...

Preferred B Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 See, I'm not sure about that. I'm ashamed to admit that I don't own Loose Fur's first. That very well could have been the song he played. Sorry if I got your hopes up! Don't worry - I'm more excited if he's playing "You Were Wrong" than some random new song I don't know anyway! Thanks for the details, guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tillyandthewall Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I can be of little help except to say Theologians was the first song in the 1st encore. He also played I'm the Man Who Loves You, and a very good Not for the Season. It was an incredible show, the first time I've seen any of them. Glenn was really good, too.

Floyd Walpole Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 thanks for the video of acuff rose. loving jeff's johnny cash-inspired outfit. looking good mr. tweedy! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wskitche Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 It was Loose Fur's you were wrong. The new songs were Patient with Me, the ruling class, and something called Sky Blue Sky and possibly abother new song that he said it will be on the new album and sounded very Being Thereish.

Guest Speed Racer Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 'Sky Blue Sky' isn't new, it's other title is 'Zamboni Man,' from the short film of the same name. This is its third live play, I think... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IamJacksName Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 There was one song I didn't recognize, and it definitely reminded me of Being There. That's all I could think of the whole time he was playing that one - how it sounded like something from Being There. Sky Blue Sky and Patient With Me were great. I was really surprised to hear You Were Wrong. Lost Love was great, along with Wait Up and Acuff-Rose. Those were definitely some songs I never thought I'd hear in person. The stand out for me, though, was Not for the Season (or whatever you want to call it). It really rocked. I really, really wish Wilco would play that one again. Nels could kill on it. I didn't see any tapers there, which surprised me. Anyone know if there any? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ronbonne Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Everyone was seated until Jeff played Acuff Rose.I think people stood up around "California Stars" (sorry - i'm nitpicking!). Anyway, the show was phenomenal. First time I've seen Jeff play solo...my faves were "Remember the Mountain Bed" and "Acuff Rose". Of the banter, my favorite was the (re: decking the fan in MO), "I went from Steven Seagal to Gilbert Gottfried!" and its accompanying motions...and I think I laughed for about ten minutes after he said that. I hope someone recorded the show so I can download it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aricandover Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 It was Loose Fur's you were wrong. love that song. I dion't think it's gets nearly enough respect from people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Buster_Bluth Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 . Of the banter, my favorite was the (re: decking the fan in MO), "I went from Steven Seagal to Gilbert Gottfried!" and its accompanying motions...and I think I laughed for about ten minutes after he said that. My favorite part of the banter was the dude in the balcony who yelled "COLE SLAW!!!!!!!!!" I thin Jeff got a real kick out of that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
