I know it may be a bit premature but I haven't seen a new album topic on here since SBS came out. Any thoughts??

Also, Is the band really going to be on SNL??

Sorry y'all. The tix are taken.

I'm so envious of everyone that has gone to these Riv shows so far. The setlists are flippin' amazing. I really hope they are saving some juice for the next leg of the tour! What am I talking about? They've never disappointed me before. It's all good.

Appropriately enough, just got a call during "How To Fight Loneliness" Thank you....

They played HTFL? Dang. They haven't played it in a while (9/1/07). I hope they play it in New Haven.

I've got two extras. They're orchestra, row M, seats 2 and 4 (isle). Email me: dmd1977@comcast.net.

Does anyone know if they are performing tonight at the Grammys??

I heard the Beatles are coming this year!

If the play the Pines Theater this summer, I'm considering bring my 5 and 6 year olds. It could infringe on my good time. It isn't all about me me me. Is it? No, really, is it???!!!

I'm hoping for a third consecutive Pines show this summer myself. Shelburne was a great venue. Jeff commented on how many kids were there and seemed quite pleased. I am unfamiliar with the Tulsa venue but, as folks have already said, a reserved seating show doesn't really allow for any running around. If they can sit still and are into rock n roll than I say bring them along. Kids are never too young to be exposed to good music. Enjoy the show!

"I myself have found, a real rival in myself. I am hoping for a re-arrival of my health."

P.S. I've never seen a live version of PKB, one of my favs.....come on New Haven!

Nope. He would be played by Jason Lee.

Oh wait...

...and Jeff Tweedy would be played by Billy Crudup!

 

 

 

 

Oh wait. Nevermind.

Neat.

"An Evening With Wilco". Damn good show that turned me into the fan I am today.

Holy crap! James Joyce and Wilco together? This may be the only time in my life that my favorite band and favorite author are one.

I'm thinking of ordering a Dublin poster:

 

I always forget to buy a poster when I'm at a show. Hopefully I'll remember. It will help that I'll have a seat to set it on. I know I won't be using it for anything else, besides my coat!

I lived in CT for the first 30 years of my life. Hartford is a ghost town compared to New Haven which has way more culture and Yale's tax base to boot.

As for the Shubert, I've never seen a show there. I'm not surprised that it sold out quickly as it's a pretty small venue. I've never seen the band in my home state. They have only played there twice since I've been a fan, both in '03 and I couldn't make it to either one. It should be a great show.

As for Toad's Place, surprisingly, Wilco has only played there once, back in 2000.

Does anyone know the password for the New Haven pre sale that begins tomorrow morning at 10am? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks much...

I don't think they've yet released the presale password. I just called the Shubert Box office and they were closed because of the storm and will reopen at 9:30. I believe this is a reserved seating only venue and thus there will be no GA tickets sold. I'd like to get me some good ones too. Best bet is to call there in the morning (203.562.5666) or check back with the presale website on tickets.com. Good luck.

I haven't heard yet about presale stuff but would also like to know as I will be returning to my home state of CT for this party! Can't wait. I'll be hitting up Philly first though of course. What part of New England are you from?

OMG They are finally playing in my (former) home state! February 24th in New Haven. I am so freakin excited. Parisisstale and I will have to rock out.

Corduroy Cutoff Girl !!!

She tasted like Mountain Dew.

Plus, Cars Can't Escape is one of my top 3 Wilco tunes.

I believe he was at that show. That was you I met there, right Dave?

 

Anyway, I have family close to there so I'm up that way from time to time. I'll be sure to get in touch next time I'm around.

That's right, I was mos def there. What a great show. We met there rather randomly. Is your name Mike?? Sorry I have forgotten. Get in touch next time you come up this way; we'll grab a coffee.

It was my 30th Birthday that day and I met Nels for the first time. He told me to follow my dreams and they would come true. It was very cool. Jeff was rather standoffish that night backstage. It was probably because I snuck back there an hour after the show. Now the Shelburne Museum is 7 miles from my house. Neato. I hope they come back to VT next year sometime.

I also saw them at the Memorial Auditorium (9/30/04). I was hammered (thank God I don't drink anymore) and don't remember too much of it. They played "Cars Can't Escape" (one of my favs) and I have no recollection. Boo.

Happy Turkey Day to all!!!

Roanoke is beautiful. I love the Mighty Blue Ridge. The Shenendoah Valley is one of my favorite places.

we got a ride home from a crack smoking prostitute.

Touche!

Went to see DSO's 10th anniversary on Sunday. It was right in my hometown, how lovely. They are a Dead tribute band, the best in the world. What an awesome show. They played an original setlist that included a bunch of infrequently played songs. These included: "Unbroken Chain," "Dire Wolf," "Sittin' on top of the World," and "Alligator." "The Scarlet Begonias>Fire on the Mountain," "St. Stephen," and "Sugar Magnolia" were all solid. It was a great show with a lot of energy. Anyone into the Dead who hasn't seen this band should make it a priority.

Hey all. I haven't posted in a while. I moved to Burlington last week and am curious if there are some diehard Wilcos in town. Feel free to send me a message.

Dave

Phil Lesh has never performed "Ripple" live with Jeff Tweedy.

it always bothered me that Theologians and Im A Wheel weren't on the list. Especially Theologians, because it's such a good cut live.

True 'nuff.
