Last night, we went over to Tim and Vickie's house to look through their expansive archive of photos from the last twenty years. These pictures really fill in a lot of gaps and have finally supplied us with many amazing photos of Joel Phelps. It's been virtually impossible to obtain live footage of him in the band, so it's nice to finally have something that can help us document this era. We shot some beautiful footage of Vickie telling stories and sifting through the pictures as well. I said "That's awesome," way too many times but I think I'm the only one who noticed it. I took a little over three hundred photos with me.
We woke up early this morning and headed back over to Tim and Vickie's to do the Tim & Andy interview. These guys have know each other since middle school, so you can imagine, we didn't have to give them much to run with. Very honest, funny, and serious all in the same go. We had a great time.
After grabbing lunch in Andersonville, we drove over to Jeff Tweedy's house. He was very gracious and has one bitching jukebox (We listened to a 45 of "Itchycoo Park" by The Small Faces while we set up). He said some really great things about the band and really put into perspective what it was like touring and recording in the early to mid-nineties. This interview has always been on our wish list and it's really great that we get to cross him off. Buy this man's records!
We got two more tomorrow and then we're back home to Nashville. So far, so good.
