So I'm supposed to be writing my portion (10-12 pages) of a 50 page paper.
So naturally, I figured I'd post some videos.
First: Back in January, I went with Nick and a bunch of friends to see Jeff Tweedy from Wilco on one of his solo tours. I liked this guy's music before, but watching him live was such a unique experience. Though he played to a full Folinger Auditorium, the concert had a fairly intimate feel as he interacted with the crowd. Even though he played few of the songs I was familiar with it was enjoyable all the way through. His persona is subtly self-deprecating and sarcastic without being by any means over-the-top and he's an odd mix of finicky and chill. He did an excellent job handling a crowd that was just a little more disruptive than I would have preferred, taking requests yet still making fun of people while playing whatever he wanted to play.
If you've never checked this guy out as a solo artist or have somehow missed hearing about Wilco all these years, check out the videos below.
*Thanks Ben, for compiling the youtubes from that night :)*
And. . . now for spider cat. Sometimes I wish I wasn't allergic to these little dudes.
