uncool2pillow Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I hope someone got the setlist for this. A great show! My first Tweedy acoustic show. He said his voice was suffering from steroids, but I think he sounded great. His guitars were struggling to say in tune, probably due to our cold weather. He's on steroids due to an allergic reaction to latex gloves he wore while visiting his father-in-law in a nursing home. Somehow, popcorn was involved. Highlights for me included: Via Chicago (opener)Hummingbird - incredible whistlingEvergreenMisunderstoodIt Must Be Love (Madness cover) I hope someone else can write a more thorough review.

Mountainbike Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Glad you had a good time! I found this link for the setlist.https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/jeff-tweedy/2019/englert-theatre-iowa-city-ia-3b92f470.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 That looks accurate. 20. Would be the Madness cover, 21 would be Acuff-Rose Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 And I just learned that Madness covered it from Labi Siffre. I had previously not heard of him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalafej Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Interesting setlist! Looks great to me. I know Jeff has said that Wilco/he can play anything from any era since they don't have a hit, but he/they seem to shy away from the recent material. Lots of songs from Warm here, but nothing from 2009 to 2018 - No Whole Long, Schmiclo, Star Wars, Mavis or 'Tweedy' songs in the set. Of course, only one show...

theashtraysays Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Did he play all the songs with just his usual small Martin guitar? Or did you happen to see one of the jumbo's with him? You know, in case there was some song later on the tour that required that larger one... asking for a friend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dang, picture won't attach. Will try to post somewhere where I can link. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uncool2pillow Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 No hat? What is going on?Along those lines, someone asked if he donated his hair to locks of love. He laughed and said the wouldn't want it. Also, he tried to do a bit of a Q&A with the crowd. Someone asked who he was voting for Chicago mayor, he gave a name and then said, "What the fuck do you care?" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
