Great Quotations: Jeff Tweedy On Wilco’s Worst Gig

The first time we played the Sasquatch festival [in 2005]. We went on after Arcade Fire, who were just becoming huge at the time. And they are so anthemic. And they’re climbing on the scaffolding and they’re out in the audience beating drums. It was berserk. It was like having your ass handed to you by, like, Cirque du Soleil.
