    “Walken”

  2. Griswald Says:

    2nd song was Walken, which I thought they rocked. Much better than Hate it Here, IMO.

  3. Mr. Matt Says:

    2nd song was Walken, also off of Sky Blue Sky

    Walken was the second wilco song played.

    Walken was song 2, complete with Tweedy in his best Nudie/Gram Parsons suit. Here’s a link

    While I enjoyed the songs they played on SNL, I wish they would have been able to play “Impossible Germany”, but that song is way too long for an SNL performance slot.

    Let me get this straight…the name of your blog is Muzzle of Bees, named after a Wilco song, and you do not even know that the second song played on SNL was Walken? Lost some cred there bro.

    Why not “I Am Your Face”? That would’ve fit onto SNL …

    Tweedy’s song selections for SNL were sort of bratty. Seems like he wanted to spotlight the Seals-&-Croft aesthetic that he forced into parts of Sky Blue Sky.

    It’s sort of like on the “Ghost is Born” album when he forced in that 6-minute keyboard drone. It was pretentious, sounded uninspired and people talked about it more than they listened to it.

    Honestly, how many Wilco fans actually listen to that drone or “Either Way” on a regular basis?

    I challenge everyone to show me one great and innovative pop musician who hasn’t forced some aesthetically awkward (or just plain bad) material onto his/her fans … Lou Reed, Jagger, Brian Wilson, Pollard … all those guys put out plenty of misguided stuff.

    Anyway, they should’ve played “You Are My Face.” Maybe there would’ve been too much spotlight on Cline for Tweedy’s liking. I don’t know.

    While listening to Wilco band one feels that their music is special. Since its creation in 1994 the band has recreated rock music and added a lot to it. Their style attracts a lot of people, and I’m no exception. Their popularity is fairly noticed in their concerts where it becomes so hard to find a ticket and prices become so high. I come to discover a site where to compare ticket prices for free and it’s really a great idea because this way one could look for the cheapest prices offered.

    It’s good to be thrifty but not mean especially when we want to watch such great bands.
