Wilco Video: You Are My Face
Wilco’s new CD, Sky Blue Sky, goes everywhere I go, and it’s really woven itself into my psyche. If you don’t have it, do yourself a favor. One of my favorites from the album has popped up in some live video action. My man Nels Cline – subject of my one and only interview thus far, kicks it into high gear with his guitar solo… I’m also LOVING Tweedy’s vocals on this tune, particularly in this part:
I have no idea how this happens
All of my maps have been overthrown
Happenstance has changed my plans
So many times my heart has been outgrownIt is Hot
It’s Saturday night, it’s Arizona, it’s June, and it’s going to be over 100 degrees here for the next four months! Let’s fire it up with a Saturday night hot mix! Can you feel the sizzle people….

And do check out this amazing video of what happens when you take a pride of lions, a herd of water buffalo, and a couple of crocs, and throw ’em together near a watering hole in a South Africa preserve. You won’t believe how it ends.
