Wilco is going back on tour, rescheduling a whole bunch of previously canceled dates, and here is their schedule. Also, did you know that there's a feature to request a song? Pretty sweet!

Here's our song of the episode: "An Empty Corner." Meredith mentioned Chris Lambert's podcast "Your Own Backyard." Here's "Are You Listening?" - the song Paul Hobbs wrote about Meredith going away to college... and "I'll Miss You Then," the song he wrote when her brother went off to college. It's a whole genre.

We're talking about "We Were Lucky."

Have a listen to our song of the day: "White Wooden Cross." A Chicago Tribune article about roadside memorials felt appropriate given Wilco's Chicago ties.

The star of the show: the "Everyone Hides" music video! "Love is Everywhere" will get its own episode soon, of course, but it's also the other upbeat song Mary mentions in this episode.

If you haven't listened yet, here's "Quiet Amplifier." The other Wilco song that features a present joint vocal (okay, so most of it is unison, not harmony like I said. So sue me!)
