Scalpers can't use paperless tickets. They have nothing to sell. paperless tickets would almost eliminate scalping

it sounds like quite a few people waited by their computers for every opportunity and got shut out. some of the shows sold out in minutes

Wilco is not a jam band, and neither is my morning jacket. both bands are similar in that they write intricately structured songs which include guitar solo sections which more often than not are played pretty similarly night in night out. both bands might play some songs a little longer on any given night, but they are planned. I personally do not care for jam bands, i know it takes talent, but it reeks of indecision to me. Like they can't decide what they want to do so they play a song 20 minutes and do everything haha. I go by the theory that shorter is better because it forces you to

I'm sorry to hear that! That sounds like a mess. I also was in the same boat in terms of wanting 3 seats but only able to get two through presale. It's just such a mess cause I remember 5 years ago having no problems getting these tickets. I'm glad wilco is getting more recognized, but unfortunately in cases of these small shows it's at the harcore fans expense, so to speak

yeah i guess i was wrong, it holds like 3,600! I didn't realize it was that big

I don't think they need to play larger venues, but they do need to do something about tickets. These venues they are playing are very small, like 2,000-3,000 seats, and wilco could probably sell them out with only die hard fans. So I say, forget presale and all that, but have something where you sign up with wilco's website and join a "fan club" (free or small lifetime fee) and then you get access to tickets for a whole week prior to public sale. Having something like that might eliminate much of the scalping and give us big fans more of a chance to get tickets. They might be removed, but

I'm quite frustrated right now. I wanted to get my brother and his fiancee Wilco tickets for Minneapolis as a birthday gift. Got on there at noon, floor seats came up, and when i clicked continue with purchase, a ticketmaster error popped up and the tickets were gone. Now it's sold out. Fantastic! can't wait to see those seats on stubhub. what a joke

i always feel like nels needs to be turned up during the end of one wing. he always sounds too low in the mix to me

what have they played so far, just got in

So they wouldn't let you get more than 2 seats, yet for the chicago show there are already scalpers that have more than 2 seats together. ....sounds about right

should have been a 1 ticket limit! lots of people would have gotten seats!

anyone know how many presale tickets they sold? regardless scalpers will have a field day for the general onsale and the remaining tickets will probably sell out before they even go on sale

i'm actually pretty upset about the two ticket limit. so if me and two friends want to go one of us would have to sit alone? i get you want to stop scalpers, but when you're doing a small theater tour it's pretty easy to do without setting up a two ticket lmiit

two ticket limit is pretty dumb in my opinion

Sorry if it is in poor taste to ask, but I'm not a member of waffles so I can't get it there, but does anyone know where I can find this, or perhaps PM me a download? I can't wait to hear this on vinyl! Unfortunately I wasn't home a lot yesterday and I'm leaving shortly today so I could only listen to it scattered about one time through, sounded good though!

when I saw him in Chicago it sounded like he did this little lick for the "voices whine" part F..............C Voices wine -1----------------------------------------------- -1-------------1---------1p0------------------------- -2-------------0---------------0---0-------------- -3-------------2---0h2---------2-------------------- -3-------------3----------------------------------- -1-----------------------------------------------

it doesn't help your cause that you don't even know the name of the song you liked haha.

i don't know exactly, but isn't about something in one of the wars where people could send slaves to fight instead of them and they receive money (possibly freedom?) in exchange. I always thought that's what the song was about, but i could be wrong

too many times bands go into studios and their output almost sounds like a tin can. everything is so clean and crisp that it doesn't sound natural at all. that's why i love MMJ, their records are raw and a lot more real sounding than most bands. Their live shows live up to their albums without any issue, which is more than a lot of bands who overdub the hell out of stuff in the studio can say

i liked evil urges, it's just that songs like sec walking and two halves sounded too cute, if that makes sense haha. circuital though approaches that on a few songs, but doesn't take it to the same level. My favorite tracks off circuital are Victory Dance Circuital The Day is Coming- approaches Evil Urges, but I still like it, the melody is catchy! Wonderful First Light Movin Away - absolutely love this one

i don't think so, i think they all cut off there. I really like it as of right now. The last song, "Movin Away" is just fantastic. I don't mind that it's a slower album, nothing wrong with that, they have a lot of rockers in their catalog, so I'm cool with some slower tempo tunes. and they aren't as hokey sounding as Evil Urges in my opinion, they feel more organic

wow, holy crap. that's crazy. there's more tickets left for one chicago show then there are the other 6 combined. very strange. i know tickets went on sale a little later for the chicago show, maybe that's why. either way that's really a random thing

absolutely, i love bands that can write great poetic lyrics, but at the same time, don't take themselves too seriously and can be funny at times. and when they can do both in the same song, it's really impressive. case in point, built to spill's distopian dream girl. My stepfather looks Just like David Bowie but he hates David Bowie I think Bowie's cool I think Lodger rules and my stepdad's a fool then in the same song, this line really gets me If it came down to your life or mine I would do the stupid thing and let you keep on living

wilco has a bunch of tunes like that i'm a wheel just a kid Wilco the song (to a certain extent) kicking television pecan pie kingpin

it's actually kind of a cover a thai pop song. the band acknowledges it so it isn't plagiarism or anything, but here is the original
