Starship Casual

Sing at the top of your lungs


Listen Later

I’ve seen Wilco a fair few times. But this is the first time I have seen an audience steal the show. An audience that matched the quality of output coming from those six guys on stage. No offense to the other audiences, there is a place for all of you. But also step it up!

Music is what it’s all about. This tour was a reminder. When times are tough we have each other. When things feel upside down, SING AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS.

Big thanks to Wilco for this one. And a bigger thanks to the fans in South America. I confidently speak for everyone when I say that you knocked our socks off.

The band is off to Europe for a few weeks. I’m here today to fill in the gap as Jeff is traveling across the great blue sea. I hope you enjoy this video. I hope you feel what we all felt.
