“Misunderstood (Live on VH-1’s Hard Rock Live)” - Wilco (via shukowinz) (via Stereogum)
I’m so bummed out to hear about Jay Bennett passing away. He was a hell of a musician, by most accounts a hell of a guy, and more than likely screwed over excessively by the Wilco documentary. Sure, he probably needed to leave the band (and was, if nothing else, equally at fault), but he was haunted by the film for the rest of his life.
In that sense, “Misunderstood” might be the perfect song to send out to him tonight.
