“The first time I said ‘New York,’ I got a big cheer,” remarked a chatty Jeff Tweedy last night (9/23) at BAM’s Howard Gillman Opera House. “The second time I did it…you all felt a bit silly, didn’t you? Shall we try it again?” A receptive and vocal crowd and game performer made for an enjoyable night as Jeff and son Spencer made their NYC debut as Tweedy who just released their first album. The Tweedy set came first, complete with Lucius‘ Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig on backing vocals, and then Jeff stayed out for a long set of songs from throughout his career, plus a lot of funny crowd interactions. For the finale, the Tweedy band came back out for a few covers and ended with “California Stars” from Wilco & Billy Bragg’s Mermaid Avenue with Nels Cline coming out to join them. Pictures, setlist and BAM’s archived video stream are all in this post.

Opening the night, part of BAM’s Next Wave Fest and Nonesuch Records 50th Anniversary celebrations, were Brooklyn’s Hospitality who were back to a trio, at least for this show. Pics from their set, and more of Tweedy, below…
