I had put these songs on the spreadsheet and called it show #189.5. When I add last night’s show later today, I will change this to 190 to match your (Jeff’s) count, and -as always- to keep the spreadsheet in sync with your recaps.

Ah husband Scott should have called in for that. I missed the show last night but that is a great song! I’m so glad I caught the Down with Wilco tour with the Minus 5!

I'm having serious deja vu with Casey's song Prodigal Son. It seemed so familiar to me I was sure she'd done it before, but I don't find it on the spreadsheet or if I run a search in this thread. Weird.

Loved the Smog cover.  Such a great song.  I seem to recall Sammy covering a Smog song from "Rain on Lens" previously.  Bill Callahan is criminally under-appreciated.

If we’re to believe Setlist FM, it’s been a bit over 10 years: April 15, 2011 at The Vic. Edited 3 hours later: Oops! It was performed on The Tweedy Show on episode 53. That seems so long ago...

It sounded extremely familiar to me too. I know that she said that the alternate title is Buick which doesn’t ring a bell. I’m guessing if she sang it last time, I had to come up with a title for it.

I knew I could count on you, Ziggy B.  Thanks.

No problem. Happy to help, but you can also click the link in my signature (below) and check out the spreadsheet any time you want to look up a song. If it gives you an error, try opening it in an incognito window.

I think Jeff wants to hit 200 episodes before the band hits the road. I believe the plan is to return to some sort of format, once the touring ends. Susie addressed this in episode 191 from last Monday, if you want to hear her say it. I might be mixing up a detail or two...

Cannot verify. I was stepping out of the shower and my wife yelled up to me from downstairs to put it on my phone. So I know they also did Half-Asleep (during which she stopped the feed).

I did a little recap of the 20 minute soundcheck that Susie was kind enough to share. I used spoiler text in case there’s people that want to be surprised.
 

You can find the spoiler button in the toolbar. It’s the little eye next to the quote button.
