The good fellows over at Wilco recently posted solo improvised sets by Jeff Tweedy, Nels Cline, and Glenn Kotche for Experimental Sound Studio on Twitch. You could go over and watch them there, but come on, you know you’d rather just hang out here and watch them all in one place.
Experimental_Sound_Studio went live on Twitch. Catch up on their Music VOD now.

Wilco week continues by pulling more from my live show stash. This time we get to bask in the infamous glory of Uncle Tupelo’s last show. A whopping 31 songs. All killer, no filler. Well, except that the last two songs here ‘Stay Free’ and ‘Wherever’ don’t seem to be part of the show, but they’ve always been on the discs I have and I’m not sure their lineage. They’ve just always been a part of this set for me so I’ve simply passed this show along to you as I’ve had it for lo, these many years.
Enjoy.
The notes that came with the show read as follows:
This is the legendary final Uncle Tupelo show. Haven't seen it posted here before, and it is a thing of beauty, so here you are. Enjoy!

Loose Fur
12.07.02
St. Ann's Warehouse Brooklyn, NY
Loose Fur was (is?) a Jeff Tweedy side project with Jim O’Rourke and Glenn Kotche. They put out two albums, 2003’s self-titled release and the 2006 follow-up Born Again in the USA.
I have a few Loose Fur shows but I pull this one out to listen to more than the others because it’s a longer show than some of the others and the songs get a little more room to breathe here, and, I just really like this version of ‘Chinese Apple’ and I dig the longer ‘Chelsea Walls Theme’. This was night two of a two-night stand. I also have night one if you’re interested.
Enjoy.
As we celebrate Wilco Week here at Holiday at the Sea, here is a live show I’ve held on to for years. This one features Wilco live at Chicago’s Grant Park as part of the “Taste of Chicago” festival.
The band was in fine form for the home town crowd and his was originally broadcast on WXRT FM and the sound is good, but the real reason I’ve held on to this one is that it was Jay Bennett’s last show with the band.
Enjoy.
