I love it when Pat hits the camera man with his Telecaster right at the end, and all he does is smile...

One of my favorite bands... such much great music. So much peace, love and hope to be found in their music - even in their selection of songs to remake.

I don't get the anti-Wilco by a lot of people. I guess that's a good sign meaning they've reached a commercial level where idiots starting hating for hate's sake (Dylan anybody?). I still treasure the set list from Tweedy I took from front of the stage when I saw them at Mississippi Nights in STL in 1997 during Being There tour...that was the first time I had seen them...and I've seen them 11 times since. And don't EVEN get me started on the bullshit "Wilco vs Son Volt" argument. I got two EXCEPTIONAL and varied bands from the break-up of my beloved Uncle Tupelo, so I'm happy. ;-)

There's an airline plane Flies to heaven everyday Past the pearly gates If you want to ride this train Have your ticket in your hand Before it is too late If the world looks wrong And your money's spent and gone And your friend has turned away You can get away to heaven On this aeroplane Just bow your head and pray Them's got ears, let them hear Them's got eyes, let them see Turn your eyes to the lord of the skies Take this airline plane It'll take you home again To your home behind the skies Well a lot of people guess Some say no and some say yes Will it take some and leave some behind? But you will surely know When to the airport go To leave this world behind Oh a lot of speakers speak A lot of preachers preach When you lay their salary on the line You can hold your head and pray It's the only earthly way You can fly to heaven on time Fly to heaven on time Them's got ears, let them hear Them's got eyes, let them see Turn your eyes to the lord of the skies Take that airline plane It'll take you home again To your home behind the skies Your ticket you obtain On this heavenly airline plane You leave your sins behind You've got to take this flight It may be daytime, might be night But you can't see your way if you're blind Them's got ears, let them hear Them's got eyes, let them see Turn your eyes to the lord of the skies Take that airline plane It'll take you home again To your home behind the skies

ב לָמָּה, יֹאמְרוּ הַגּוֹיִם: אַיֵּה-נָא, אֱלֹהֵיהֶם. 2 Wherefore should the nations say: 'Where is now their God?' ג וֵאלֹהֵינוּ בַשָּׁמָיִם-- כֹּל אֲשֶׁר-חָפֵץ עָשָׂה. 3 But our God is in the heavens; whatsoever pleased Him He hath done. ד עֲצַבֵּיהֶם, כֶּסֶף וְזָהָב; מַעֲשֵׂה, יְדֵי אָדָם. 4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. ה פֶּה-לָהֶם, וְלֹא יְדַבֵּרוּ; עֵינַיִם לָהֶם, וְלֹא יִרְאוּ. 5 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not; ו אָזְנַיִם לָהֶם, וְלֹא יִשְׁמָעוּ; אַף לָהֶם, וְלֹא יְרִיחוּן. 6 They have ears, but they hear not; noses have they, but they smell not; ז יְדֵיהֶם, וְלֹא יְמִישׁוּן--רַגְלֵיהֶם, וְלֹא יְהַלֵּכוּ; לֹא-יֶהְגּוּ, בִּגְרוֹנָם. 7 They have hands, but they handle not; feet have they, but they walk not; neither speak they with their throat. ח כְּמוֹהֶם, יִהְיוּ עֹשֵׂיהֶם-- כֹּל אֲשֶׁר-בֹּטֵחַ בָּהֶם. 8 They that make them shall be like unto them; yea, every one that trusteth in them.
