This may be the coolest fundraiser of all time.

So what 20 Tweedy songs would you pick? Remember, they will be played solo, in your own home.

How unbelievably awesome would it be to have Tweedy play a show in your home?

20 songs? "Via Chicago" is a given, as it's been my absolute favorite Wilco tune lately. The rest? It'd be tough narrowing 'em down.

It's really impossible to narrow down to my Top 20, but this is a good set. Alphabetically:

1. Alone

2. Ashes of American Flags

3. Cars Can't Escape

4. Gun

5. Handshake Drugs

6. How to Fight Loneliness

7. I Am Trying to Break Your Heart

8. I?m the Man Who Loves You

9. Jesus, etc.

10. Laminated Cat / Not for the Season (any version)

11. Misunderstood

12. Muzzle of Bees

13. Outta Mind (Outta Sight)

14. Radio Cure

15. Radio King

16. Red-eyed and Blue

17. She?s a Jar

18. Shot in the Arm, A

19. Sunken Treasure

20. Via Chicago

Sheesh. I could barely fit an air guitar in our living room, let alone Tweedy and 20 friends. Plus, I'm not sure Jeff would appreciate it if, in the middle of "Misunderstood," my wife shouted down the stairs, "Quiet! Baby's sleeping!" (She's just miffed that I left off "Heavy Metal Drummer," and that John Stirratt isn't coming.)

I had no room for so many others... "Chinese Apple," "Dash 7," "Pot Kettle Black," "Hummingbird," "Hell Is Chrome"... etc.

That is just not cool, Andy. Not cool at all. Rolling Eyes
