Alright, before I start slamming Drew's list (and I will), I gotta first show some respect. To Jay Bennett because he passed away this year - due to lack of health insurance... probably due to lack of record sales... probably due to being kicked out of Wilco - and because the whole Yankee Hotel Foxtrot drama was probably the best mainstream 'moment' of this bullshit decade. If Jeff Tweedy thinks he's ever going to make music as good as when Jay was in the band, he's kidding himself. Kanpai, brother Jay, and goodbye.
Can we get a list of essential sidemen who leave the band, foreshadowing its decline? Matt Sharp, John Cale, Lou Barlow are a few names. Who else?
