Checking in from the helm of the Starship Casual, where we’re working on a whole bunch of stuff. There may be a “mute”-ny afoot and/or a David Bowie cover coming soon behind the paywall, probably later this week.

This Week In Wilco, Etc.
2006 / March 21: The Loose Fur album Born Again in the USA is released on Drag City.
2019 / March 22: Jeff’s solo show at the Vic Theatre in Chicago, IL is later officially released as Roadcase #73. Among the songs performed this evening is “I’m into Something Good” by Herman’s Hermits.
1998 / March 26: At Lounge Ax in Chicago, IL, for a second night in a row, Jeff debuts new songs live: “One by One,” “Ingrid Bergman” (both from Mermaid Avenue), and “How to Fight Loneliness.”
My UGA-attending son has procured tickets to the show in Athens next month AND invited me to drive over from Atlanta to attend with him. Solid proof that I raised him right!
Haven’t Tom and Mark earned some sort of non-commissioned officer ranks yet? Ensigns Of Silence or some sort? (I’m assuming Crystal already outranks you, as the Admiral Of Angst perhaps.) At any rate, looking forward to all of the new works and getting back on the road. I’m sure there will be some poor pinnate and cartoon dog chuckles at the very least...
