THERE IS A LIGHT … WHAT LIGHT
Jeff Tweedy made his triumphant return to Foellinger Auditorium on Saturday night, and he didn’t disappoint. Playing solo with only an acoustic guitar (of the six he had to choose from on stage) to accompany him, Tweedy commanded the room from start to finish. With his family in attendance, he played a heartfelt, intimate collection of songs spanning the breadth of his career, from a couple of Uncle Tupelo favorites (“Wait Up” and “Acuff/Rose”) to a couple of brand-new tracks. After the jump, the full set list and a bunch more photos.
