Win Jeff Tweedy’s New DVD, Wilco Poster

Following up on the Primus contest I featured last week — the correct answer was “Winona’s Big Brown Beaver” — I’ve got a copy of Jeff Tweedy’s new DVD, Sunken Treasure, and a Wilco poster to giveaway this week…

The DVD will be released on October 24 and MusicToday is currently offering up some goodies for fans that pre-order the release.

“Recorded over five nights during his February 2006 solo acoustic tour, the first ever Jeff Tweedy solo DVD features footage gathered from concerts at Seattle’s Moore Theater, Portland’s Crystal Ballroom, Eugene’s McDonald Theater, Arcata’s Humboldt State University, and The Fillmore in San Francisco. The disc showcases songs from Wilco, Uncle Tupelo, and Loose Fur, including the unreleased “The Thanks I Get.”

Every DVD pre-order will include a limited edition 4-postcard set commemorating posters from various Jeff Tweedy solo shows dating back to the Lounge Ax days. Each 4″x6″ postcard boasts a hi-gloss finish and is approved for mail (stamps not included).

The winner of the contest will get a copy of Sunken Treasure and the Wilco Poster of their choice from the Wilco Store.”

Drop a comment telling me what you like most about Jeff Tweedy and/or Wilco and I’ll choose a winner at random from the list later in the week…

My first big concert was G. Love & Special Sauce opening for Wilco. I went for G. Love (being 14 at the time) but stayed for Wilco who I heard for the first time that night. Tweedy’s lyrics and songwriting abilities transcend genre and I’ve seen many rocking shows since that first one, always pleased by the experience.

I think what I like most almost the band Wilco is the lilt in his voice as he sings… There’s something about the way he sings. Aside from that, the use of instrumentation and their songs are nice to listen to also!
Favourite song: I am trying to break your Heart…

That after many years and many listenings, Ashes of American Flags still chokes me up. (I’m getting teary eyed just thinking about it!)

I am a theologian (in graduate school), and his lyrics keep me humble:

“theologians, they don’t know nothing about my soul.”

perfect time for this question, as i just watched “i am trying to break your heart” yesterday.

i love the way that jeff makes his music despite what happens around him. most people’s music ends up being purely reactive – its all about the things that have happened around them. jeff makes his music no matter what his circumstances are. theres the scene in the doc where after his solo show everyone is trying to ask him questions about the next record and finally he just gets fed up and says hes done and walks off. he doesnt feel it a necessity to explain his art. and thats exactly what it is – pure art. most bands that make music that stands well as art usually are painfully pretentious and painful to listen to but jeff makes his art still so palatable without compromising his values and visions. i love that.

i hope that made at least a little sense.
