I feel like it’s right on the tip of my tongue, but what was the music being played right before the Worm started at the Chicago shows?

It was Brian Eno!!! Hit me on the way home that night. From Another Green World.

SILKWORM and ???
Jam Room Music Festival in Finlay Park (Columbia SC)
Saturday Nov 15th, 2025

Jam Room fest is FREE and outdoors in downtown Columbia.
It appears to be legit cool. Check out past lineups here. You got yer Arkestra, Tortoise, Mtn Goats, GBV, etc.

Thanks to everyone who made it out or thought about making it out for last week's festivities.
It exceeded our unreasonably high expectations.

love,

I had a great silkweek in CHI - only regret not being able to meet more in person since I went to the Tues show only. Seeing other bands with CHI ties that I also love leading up (Dehd, DIDJITS) made it even more special.

I kept telling my wife - and anyone else for that matter - that it felt like I wound up cheating on life for a week. What was supposed to be 1 night of SKWM became a week of 30+ bands in 2 cities and 3 different living accommodations across 9 nights, record shopping, book shopping, coffee shops, great food and friends, etc.

The frame for my poster arrives today.

Made it to Thursday and the Tolono show and easily could have taken a third night. Having never seen Silkworm and Dianogah only once way back, these felt twice-in-a-lifetime special. Superlative. Thanks to both bands.

Yep, the whole week I kept thinking, "I feel like I'm getting away with something." Or that I didn't deserve to see them so much or something. Absolute trip.

Wouldn't change a thing. Setlists were perfect, songs sounded fucking MASSIVE, whole deal was incredible.

I was driving home from Urbana and got very, very choked up thinking about Joel singing a lyric (in a song about him, pretty sure): "...I won't forget to eat." I could swear he patted Tim on the back when he sang that line, too. That was wildly fucking heavy, man.

My favorite band ever, nothing really comes close, and I'm just so happy they seem happy as fuck.

35 songs played over 5 nights! 27 alone at the second Sleeping Village show!

I was also wondering this. I'd pay good money for it too.

No plans but maybe?

F*cking Dremate man, jesus christ it's just too good. Hopefully the Sleeping Village take turns up.

Not possible for me to get down there but it's been a real treat to catch bits of these gigs on the 'tube...
