What's the routine?


Recommended Posts

So, it's pretty much a given that the band is/will be recording a new record over the next few months and now Tweedy has booked solo dates in December. I know I've read/heard that he likes to shake things out and refresh himself by playing solo gigs around the time they record, but does anybody know if there's some sort of order? His last few treks out hadn't really included much new material in the setlists, so it made me wonder this morning as I drank joe and pondered, will they have begun recording by the time he hits the road? Or, is he jacking himself up for vigor and inspiration to begin recording when he gets back? 

 

For something completely different....I saw a photo from over the weekend of Neko Case and Sue Miller together . I love it when my bands come together.

I am curious to know what is going to happen. I would really like to see some Roadcase compilation type release from the AmericanaramA tour, but not sure if that will ever come to pass.

Failing that, all I can look forward to now, Wilco-wise, is the next release. Hope it is sooner rather than later!

i dont really care much about a solid sound documentary, tbh. i guess it depends how heavy it is on live performances vs behind the scenes stuff though. im glad the festivals been a success but ive got little to no interest in watching a bunch of interviews about how theyve done it. live clips though, those id love. hopefully its like sunken treasure or ashes of american flags where the "documentary" bits are small segments after every 4/5 songs

My enthusiasm for this is based on my (uninformed) assumption that it would mostly be a SS concert film.  Less interested in a documentary about the making of SS than I am about re-living the performances of SS, though no doubt I would buy it either way.

If the new release takes a while...but to full blown cult band status. And that isn't really a bad thing
