Grown out of founder Isaac Tigret's love for blues music, the House of Blues is dedicated to educating and celebrating the history of Southern Culture and African American artistic contributions to music and art.

i love how jay questioned the condescending chuckle about him being a teacher
He sounds like the ultimate surfer dude cool band guy. It's especially obvious when he sings.
lol they shouldve used the end bit of this interview in the Jay doc
This is fantastic, but that's not bassist John Stirratt. It's multi-instrumentalist Jay Bennett, who sadly passed away in 2009.
Opps, thanks for the help. We fixed it!
Glad to help! Thanks for posting this interview.
young too - In his mid 40s. Pastemagazine has an article (excerpt about Bennetts life from a book about Wilco put out in about 2013.
Was a beneficial and tumultuous relationship, partnership. A study in band personalities and people
@Jairo Bjorn Yea, I've been watching on Flixzone} for since december myself =)
8:00 it’s crazy how much Jeff and Spencer look alike here and that he not only became a musician, but one that plays with his dad a lot
Jeff is def on some sorta opiate bcs he keeps itching himself all the time. Congrats to Jeff for staying sober! I hope he keeps on that path to recovery
Maybe, but I know I do that when I'm nervous or uncomfortable and i've never even done opioids.
The sniffles and itching… sad. So glad you persevered. Cheers, to the Bob Dylan of our generation.
This was the Vicodin Jeff period. Check out how dilated his pupils are. Glad to hear that he's recovered and in a much better place now.
4:21 "Dawn on Me"...get it? ha
ya lol
I think Jeff should touch his face more in this video.
what year was this interview from?
so young
This is definitely baby Wilco, but it's so cool to hear them from this period.
Jay is totally oblivious that he is constantly stepping on Jeff’s toes. Jeff is the leader. What did Jay think was going to happen?
By doing what? Speaking?
@@michaelgraham9774 perhaps you are unfamiliar with the phrases, “read the room,” or “conversational consideration.” You’re probably the type that likes to speak over top of other ppl, too.
@@getwhatyougive You're probably the type of person who talks without saying anything.
@@michaelgraham9774 when
I think their mainly Jeff’s songs ? So he probably should do most of the talking?
Pretty interesenting seing that knowing that Jeff is not a junkie anymore. Seems a completely different person.
Well someone who has the disease of addiction/alcoholism (which is pretty much the same thing) is very different once they have been in the recovery process for awhile. Once they start taking the steps to learn and dig deep inside they start to figure out and learn the thinking patterns that has caused them problems, and once they start to practice changing the old thought process that they've had they slowly start to change which is what has happened to Jeff and many other addicts/alcoholics in recovery. One important thing to remember is that NO ONE is ever ever out of the woods. That part of them stays with them for the rest of their days, and if they stop taking the proper steps of the recovery process it is a matter of time until a relapse happens and its back to square one. It is a very scary disease which takes constant work to help remain sober. Also Jeff was never what is classified as a "Junkie" a junky is someone who is addicted to heroin. Even though heroin is an opiate just like vicodin, it doesnt really matter but thats a very derogatory term for someone who is an addict/alcoholic
Not really... his answers here are still thoughtful and similar to stuff he's said in more recent interviews. it's kinda wild how when someone admits publicly to struggling with addiction fans go back and tear apart old interviews and songs to look for all traces of drug influence. though we mythologize drugs as completely changing somebody's personality, that's not always the case. sometimes it's just a health problem in the same way that bronchitis is a health problem
@@eht12369 Yeah, it makes sense to me. I still see a very different person though. I'm not a diehard teenage fan, I'm a 37 year old person with it's own background and what I see is a young dude being interviewed, but the point here is that I just expressed myself terribly wrong with this word because I didn't know the meaning of it by the time I wrote that so I'm sorry if I've offended someone (geez I probably did, I'm ashamed now).
@@drago6769 Oh, I see. My mistake. I'm brazilian, so I didn't know how heavy this world is by the time I wrote it (I was too impulsive on having an opinion too). I'm sorry because I probably offended someone here. Lesson learned.
@@johngoody8204 I wrote that 7 years ago bro. It was pretty stupid. We don't need a word that compares someone with a health problem to trash. It doesn't make much sense, and this is why I kept it. Hopefully it'll make others think about stuff before talk. Actually I don't feel ashamed anymore, cause I'm not perfect neither trying to, I just wanna be a better person and fuck up sometimes, as everyone, and it's ok. You're wrong.
Fuckin' Tweedy....always gets the last laugh .
1:24 oof…. foreshadowing
7:59
That's pretty ironic looking back, cause his first son Spencer did end up becoming a musician.
I am IMark Serelépi
Back in the day I didn't know they were junkies.
he did some pills.wouldent call him a junkie
@@johngoody8204 Yes, that's true. One of the factors in Jay getting fired from Wilco was the fact that Jeff wanted to get clean, but Jay was still having bulk orders of prescripton pills FedExed to the Loft.
Junkies = hardcore intravenous use. Not these guys.
This interviewer did a cringe-worthy job.
jmzr65
Seriously....how did this dude get that gig?
What? I thought he did ok
Well that teacher bit at the end was pretty cringeworthy, yes
He a Junkie too!
he works for live nation why are you confused 😂
Lol.jeff looked disgusted by this guy..
