Alex brags on foreign spas filled with mineral pools where all the molecules are massaged so they flow in unison, and the hands of the masseuses are encased in casts of paleolithic mud twixt sessions.  I don't know where the Grove Park Inn ranks in his world, but in mind it was the best spa experience I have ever had. But maybe that's just cause Karen was with me.

I do know that wilco sounds really good and the first song of this steaming concert bodes well for the new album.
