Shug Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 The Mother Hips/Wilco connection goes back to the HORDE festival in 1995 when the Hips were touring as a side stage band. They also opened a New Year's Eve Wilco show at the Fillmore in SF. A couple years ago, Tim started playing this song for Jay Bennet and its been in the Hips' encores consistently since then and it always makes for a poignant reflective end to the show. Thought some of you might like to hear it if you didn't know about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Saw so many great bands and descovered many more! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
