    Wilco's one of my favorite bands but I know nothing about them- is Tweedy difficult to work with? He seems very amicable in concert.

    The documentary "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart" makes him seems rather passive-aggressive, but he never comes off as mean or overbearing. Quite good documentary, if you haven't seen it.

    Nels Cline is an absolutely amazing guitarist. The few tracks I've heard sound like Fugazi or Sonic Youth playing jazz. It's very fast and aggressive stuff.

    It's a great documentary. You're right he did seem a bit passive-aggressive and you could see from the beginning that he and Jay thought differently about things.

    Have you ever seen the documentary about the making of "Mermaid Avenue" ? From watching that it also appears that Tweedy and Billy Bragg occasionally did not see eye to eye.
