was playing around on Youtube and watched the band's performance of Rats on 9/30 (which I missed by one night!) and I thought I'd take a look at how often they've been playing it these days. I was prompted to do this because of the "Ben" intro Eddie added to it, and it got me thinking of Michael Jackson. does anyone have the boot of the show they played on June 25? was there any mention from Eddie of the loss of Michael Jackson that day? I was guessing there might have been because they did play Rats that night.

    That show was in 2008 and MJ was alive.

    But did they mention him? Maybe they knew something.

    I saw Wilco on June 25, 2009, in Los Angeles. M.J.'s death had the audience abuzz, but Jeff Tweedy never acknowledged the event.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.
