Did John play with a band or solo?
And did he play any X songs?
thanks
Yeah, he played white girl (i think that's what it's called). DO NOT MISS John Doe. He rocked out. Definetly the best opener Wilco has had in a while.
It was a strange night in a strange venue. The boys did seem a bit haggard and Jeff did apologize for his hoarse voice, but they busted out a tight 24 song set. There was tons of funny banter and everybody seemed real loose. This was the closest we have been to the stage and they could've played anything and I would've been happy. Seeing the subtle interaction between the guys and all their expressions was great. Jeff blew the little harmonica part on she's a jar and got a funny little smirk on his face. Stuff like that is priceless.
My highlights: Remember The Mountain Bed - The only song I requested. Thankfully the two guys in front of me stopped talking when I politely informed them that it was one of my faves.
Summerteeth - Nuff said. I gotta check my video for this.
I Can't Stand It - It seems like this is making it into a semi-regular rotation and the is a GOOD thing. Great energy song and the band rocks it.
Kingpin - woooooooooo. Loves me some call and response.
All in all while it was a "standard" setlist the boys sounded as great as ever and we had lots of great folks around us dancing, singing, and having a blast.
p.s. we only met one fan from Cleveland. Everyone we met was from somewhere else.

Thanks for the heads up b. Break a leg with the taping. As always the hard work of the tapers is always appreciated.

What is this Johnny Mango you speak of Wilcogirl?
-
Great arrangements Max. They really brought out the soul in some songs (walken, hate it here) and added depth to others (blood of the lamb, pieholden). I wish you guys were doing the whole tour. Thanks
-
Are there no soundboards of these shows?
No, not usually. Wilco is kind enough to allow audience taping. For that we should all be grateful.
Info regarding recordings of shows can be found in the reflecting off your cd section

The kids and I all do back up singing to this. You gotta start em early.

You know what's weird? This is the music for the traffic report on a classic rock station here in Memphis.
Weirder than box full of letters as the music to the letters to the NPR business report?
Nice scream!!!!
-
Truly a band at the top of their game!!!
-
OK, I'm ready for more. At least we don't have to listen to the play by play guys telling us about the rug!
Jeff wears a rug?

I set my telescope up this afternoon and it was a good call. Beuuuutiful.

Fucking static, messing up "hummingbird" and shit.

Eh.Erm. Uhhhh...no?

This lineup has really nailed all the summerteeth stuff live. I can't imagine it sounded this good live back in the day.
-
I think this kills sbs. maybe?
-
Put on shoes real quick: Shod yourself.
-
One of my faves. I love to sing back up on this one!
-
best version ever.

Just went out to grab a beer and the moon is 1/3 gone.

Give the tapers a little time (a week is standard practice). Keep an eye on the reflecting off your cd section and someone will generally post if it is up.
Hey Vulture, I drug my wife to her first Wilco show and now we've seen them in London (Ontario), Lansing, Chicago, Toronto, and Cleveland as well as a hometown show. If you get copies of any of the recent Chicago stand you will understand why this was an "off" show.
