This is such a beautiful video. So well done. As a fan of Wilco, it's really amazing to see Jeff Tweedy in such a personal setting. I got the chills when he took the stage!

[@dkyrus]

Love, love, LOVE this! I'm one of those diehard fans who waits in line for hours to get their requests played (you can see me yucking it up with Jeff's wife Sue at 3:16), and seeing your musical hero up close and personal like this--both at the shows and on this video--is a dream come true. He did play my requests both nights--Wishful Thinking and She's a Jar. Jeff Tweedy and Wilco are, in my opinion, absolutely brilliant, and I'm always astounded that more of the world doesn't know this. Bravo!

[@AnthonyBatt]

The video and music looks and sound amazing, but what I love most is getting to see Jeff chilling at home with his family.

[@bosconet1]

What an awesome video and not just because I'm in it and I'm the one that requested Wherever and that's the song he's rehearsing!

[@shart53]

Huge Wilco fan and seeing the raw human family guy front man, Jeff Tweedy at work and play is a pleasure. Its alway encouraging to see professionals stripped down to the unplugged level while seeing their musical essence shine through. Well done!!!

[@traceymod]

Love this guy-he is absolutely a star...come back to UK soon please! (Or Switzerland!!)

[@AmbitiousRiffRaff]

great highly personal footage capturing an artist at work

[@cydisc]

The greatest thing Ashton Kutcher ever did was produce this.

[@heypamcakes]

It's nice to see Jeff Tweedy in his dad role. It's a cool perspective.

[@cuisine111]

Amazing video, it made me a Jeff Tweedy fan

[@Zakarum420]

Jeff has such integrity. I have so much respect for the man.

[@Diabeticuss]

they're are like the same age, and non-comparable. Tweedy=music genius JB=comedic genius (and stellar pipes)

[@JusteSimon88]

Where the fuck were you, your music is so amazing, thx...

[@EricCalhoun]

He seems to be EP for Thrash Lab, he's listed on the other stuff of theirs I've watched. Pretty cool.

Kutcher is from Chicago too. He shows up in Walter Payton's A Football Life too.

[@tbone10ify]

[@ZRN959]

Wherever-Uncle Tupelo

[@ohcuriousone1]

Damn good.

[@KrisErickson]

"Wherever" It's an Uncle Tupelo song.

[@peterparsons123]

Sounded Like The end of Gun which is an Uncle Tupelo song

[@drone124]

Ashton Kurcher executive produced this??

[@dasheight]

Anyone know the song he's practicing, starting at around 2:46?

[@DonatedF22]

He and his daughter are so cute! I love musicians' kids!

[@SewSawThief]

what song Jeff's playing at 2:25?

[@thesidekick]

By "from Chicago", do you mean "from Iowa"?

[@GFresh127]

does anybody know what he was playing around 2:40?

[@gome5000]

Except Tweedy takes life seriously and knows how to write incredible lyrics.

[@balumusica]

...and which one at 2:46??

[@misterspikex]

"formerly of Wilco"?

[@fredclarktv]
