hey all - got photos from last night's show: http://www.chromewaves.net/concertPhotos.php?concert=wilco7 was only allowed to stay for the first three with the good gear but will be back for the whole show tonight with my decent little cam, 3rd row. Will post those in whatever thread evolves for that show.

here's some photos from the balcony front row last night: http://www.chromewaves.net/concertPhotos.php?concert=wilco6

Feist was at the Mod Club that night - boyfriend in Bahamas was opening for BSS-mate Amy Millan. Glad she showed up on Thursday, and that I chose that show to attend.

I was granted a ticket row A seat 48 (second last to house right) but have been sitting on my order confirm page for 10 minutes. I do not trust the: "We're processing your order #6840236. Attempt 1 out of 3. This may take up to four minutes." is truthful. Guess I'll cross my fingers for friday.

if anyone is planning on going to the screening at the Royal tomorrow, I have an extra ticket that I need to unload. Please get in touch!

Hey everyone I've got my photos up from the show on the 4th: http://www.chromewaves.net/concertPhotos.p...cert=neilYoung2

Well I had my SLR rig cause I had a press pass, though no photo pass - that only got you into the pit. But no, it wouldn't have been hard to get an SLR and a couple lenses into the show.

I've got some photos of the ACL set from way stage left: http://www.chromewaves.net/austinCityLimits2007.php?autoID=4 but cropped to make more interesting compositions. I was also at the ACL taping, some recollections here: http://www.chromewaves.net/index.php?itemid=2760

well I had to shoot from way off on the side of the audience so I didn't really have much choice than to get everyone onstage in the shot, I couldn't get any closer. But I'm pretty pleased with what I got.

Seen them nine times, that may well have been the best one. I've got photos: http://www.chromewaves.net/concertPhotos.p...=468&y=2007 Only from the first three songs - the joys/pains of getting proper media accreditation.

I've seen them live a couple times now - at SxSW in March and just this weekend at NxNE. Great live show - not the tightest performance, but so much energy and both the old stuff and new stuff sounds great. One of my favourite bands in the 90s whom I never thought I'd get to see live, let alone twice. Photos from both shows, if you want to see how they've aged: SxSW: http://www.chromewaves.net/sxsw2007.php?autoID=30 NxNE: http://www.chromewaves.net/concertPhotos.p...=481&y=2007

Shannon McArdle just stopped by and commented. I haven't had this much drama in my comments section in a long time. It's a little strange.

I've got photos and a review of the SV show in Toronto last week. They sounded great and Jay's not someone I expect banter from, so I wasn't disappointed he didn't chat much. And less talk = more music! Review: http://www.chromewaves.net/index.php?itemid=2598 Pics: http://www.chromewaves.net/concertPhotos.p...=467&y=2007

I'm pretty sure MusicToday had the first 7 rows, RCF and LCF, reserved for the presale. 30 seats a row, that's the best 210 tickets (approximately) in the house. I'll pay a premium for that. Things would have been tricky if Massey Hall also had a block reserved for presale like they did last time - I think they got the front couple rows and the MusicToday allotment started behind them. And there's no duty on tickets - I've preordered for pretty much every wilco show the last four years and they're always delivered, safe and sound, with no extra charges. Usually a couple weeks before the
