Wilco, "Standing O", Overture Hall, Madison, WI, October 5, 2011



How can you tell You're under a spell You're compromised You're miles away Slow How can you know When you're aiming low There's nothing in your heart Don't feel it in your soul No standing O O O Maybe you've noticed I'm not ashamed Of anything that I've done Maybe you've noticed that I'm not the same As almost anyone Why can't you see You look funny to me You trip and fall I catch it all O How can you know When you're aiming low You're curling up You're crawling now No standing O O O Maybe you're saying no this time Dance right around my bones It's o.k. I'll be fine I won't follow you home Instead I turn my mood on a dime I'm finally off my back I come from a long, long line I mope and I cry and attack OW OW How can you tell You're under my spell Compromised Miles away No standing O O O Maybe you've noticed I'm not afraid Of everything that I've done Maybe you've noticed I'm not the same As almost anyone Instead turn my mood on a dime I'm finally off of my back I come from a long, long line I mope and I cry and attack How can you tell How can you tell = by WILCO

Subject: Mario's '93 comeback in Phili + all girls Harcum College = what a weekend. ..

so i met this girl on the telephone by accident when she called our place in West College actually for a friend in the hockey house next door. .. i find myself going to Phili w/ a friend who lived off Phili's Main Line and that was my destination so I could meet-up with this girl on the phone and hang out at the all girls Harcum College on Phili's main line. .. After a fun night as an overnight (snuck-in) guest at Harcum with a couple lovely coed hosts = the next morning in Coma from teh drinks I had  the nite before my hockey friend informs me that his dad's car dealership has season tix and why not catch the Phili Vs. Pittsburgh game? It would be fun + he heard Mario was returning to the ice after a recent absence. .. Sure, why not? The way the sun was coming into the Spectrum on this hockey afternoon was just looking so cool, so right, while I washed away my Coma with ice cold beers. .. Seeing Mario on the ice was always magical. .. And, I knew it was there = the energy. .. At one point, my MainLine Phili friend said, "man, you better calm down.  ..these fans aren't gonna like it." ... "It's OK, man." I felt just as safe as I did "sneaking" into the space outside the doors of  the Penguins locker-room in the Civic Arena as a kid = seeing familiar faces looking over me while I wait for Pat Price, Paul Baxter, Mike Bullard, George Feurgoson, Bobby Simpson --- and just as safe as I felt skating the little rink in Mt. Lebennon H.S. one-on-one with Pat Price @ the Ken Schinkel Hockey School . .. "It's OK, man," I replied = I knew the magic was there.

Ryan Adams - Lucky Now




I don’t remember were we wild and young
All that faded into memory
I feel like somebody I don’t know
Are we really who we used to be
Am I really who I was

The lights will draw you in
And the dark will bring you down
And the night will break your heart
But only if you’re lucky now

Waiting outside while you find your keys
Like bags of trash in the blackening snow
City of neon and toes that freeze
We’ve got nothing and nowhere to go
We’ve got nothing and nowhere

And the lights will draw you in
And the dark will take you down
The night will break your heart
But only if you’re lucky now

And if the lights will draw you in
And the dark will take you down
But love will mend your heart
But only if you’re lucky now

I don’t remember were we wild and young
All that’s faded into memory
Are we really who we used to be
Am I really who I used to be
Am I really who I was
