We’re nearing the Christmas season and yet no announcement’s been made…

Warren

Finally, unofficial word’s starting to trickle out about the 18th Annual Warren Haynes Christmas Jam. Bluestraveler.net reports:

Jeff Tweedy: Foellinger Auditorium, Univ. of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign – 10/27/06

During his 20-song set at Foellinger Auditorium on the campus of the University of Illinois, Jeff Tweedy appeared happy and willing to go along with the hooting and hollering of obscure requests of college kids enjoying their Halloween weekend. In other words, he’s come a long way from the panicked and uptight figure that had to seek medical help in the past.
