Good morning!
Friday, Sep 19, 2025 - Posted by Rich Miller * A few years ago, I seriously considered buying an old but gorgeous house that happened to be directly across the street from Jeff Tweedy’s Chicago home. However, when I sat down and thought about it, I realized it would be at the very least 18 months before I could move in and cost me about twice as much as the rough remodeling estimate I had (I’ve watched enough home remodeling TV shows to know that as soon as you knock that first hole in a wall of an old Victorian you’ll see more problems than you’d ever imagined). Plus, as a great friend reminded me, you get to know people on your side of the street a whole lot more than the people on the other side, and I didn’t fancy hanging out on my front porch just to catch a glimpse of him. I passed and never regretted it… ‘Cause rock and roll is dead, but the dead don’t die What’s up?

Happy Friday, all.
Any other Cook County homeowners still waiting on their property tax bill? Would be great to at least have some idea of when those will be sent out.

Wow. Where/when was that filmed?
Kinda looks like Neo or The Hideout.

Got to see Tweedy play this song in Champaign a couple of weeks ago as part of the Ellnora guitar festival. A great last number but unfortunately no encore.
