Last night i read on the boards that Jeff Tweedy has checked himself into a rehab facility. apparently he's addicted to his migrane meds. i read this just as i entered day two of my spring wilco kick. since i'm listening to summerteeth right now i thought i'd post a couple of my favorite lines from that disc...
"she's a jar with a heavy lid, my pop quiz kid, a sleepy kisser, a pretty war, my feelings hid. she begs me not to hit her"
"...maybe all i need is a shot in the arm... something in my veins bloodier than blood..."
"...and whatever's going down will follow you around that's how you fight loneliness. you laugh at every joke, drag your blanket blindly, fill your heart with smoke and the first thing that you want will be the last thing you ever need
that's how you fight it..."
"Please beware the quiet front yard
I warned you
before there were water skies
I warned you not to drive, dry your eyes you poor devil"
"When i let go of your throat-sweet throttle
When i clean the lash of your black-belt model
will i catch the moon like a bird in a cage
it's for you i swoon
I'm always in love"
"There's a whisper i'd like to breathe into your ear
but i'm too scared to get that close to you right now
there are dreams we might have shared
and i still care and i still love you
but you know how i've been untrue"

Mmkay! What time is the show? Openers? Peeps, check. And I owe you some new music. Any thoughts? Just got the Lost in Translation soundtrack. Thats good fun . . . . Didn't you mention American Analog Set or Neutral Milk Hotel or something else with three words in the name?

Have a blast this weekend. Blow off that steam you've been building up.
