related: wilco (the album) i guess this title is confirmed, but when i "spoke with the band" on sunday, they said they hadn't yet made up their minds...of course, they were probably just trying to get rid of me, but still...for the record, the official leather canary interview went something like this: the leather canary: hey guys, i'm a big fan, mind if sit down & take a picture? jeff tweedy: uh, sure, let me move my bag. tlc: so, you excited to get home for a couple weeks? jt: yeah. tlc: and how's the new album sound? good? glenn kotche: it sound's great. tlc: cool, you guys pick out a title yet? gk: no, not yet. tlc: alright, well thanks a lot. jt: no problem. tlc: i'm wearing your t-shirt. jt: yeah, i see that. tlc: okay, bye. yeah, so i was a little brain dead from the past few days, but i thought it went alright...not nearly as good as my "talk with mavis" went on thursday, but i think i'll keep that moment for myself...anyway, new orleans was amazing...& the festival was incredible...here's what i dug most about it; the gospel soul children's tamborine player, roy rogers & the delta rhythm kings bringing out long tall marcia ball, booker t & the dbt's doing "time is tight", mavis singing mahalia ...
