Just noticed the setlist as someone posted it over on jayfarrar.net. They played Too Far Apart!!!!! Are you fucking kidding me? That might be the best setlist I have seen in years. According to Wilcobase they have only played it like 26 times live.

How do you know that its at night? Most of the ACL tapings occur during the afternoon or early evening. It would not be likely that they would play the ACL basement and then head straight to Stubbs, but its not impossible either. Heres hoping they head across the street to play a secret show at the Hole In The Wall after the taping. Now that would be cool.

I wish they would ban chairs. It's nearly impossible to move close to the stage when you have a thousand fat, stinky, hippie men and women clogging the way. A good portion of the audience plops their fat asses down in front of the stage making it impossible for the real fans to get up close and personal.

Did anyone else notice that in todays Wilco newsletter it mentioned that they will be taping another ACL show (THIRD TIME) the same weekend of the festival? I still am optimistic that Wilco will play SOMEWHERE in Austin on Sat night. They have surprised us before. Summerteeth at Antones in 1999 (wasnt really a surprise) and the "private" show they played at the Mercury Lounge (now the Parish) before the first ACL festival in 2002. Bands love playing unannounced gigs here. Just this past month we have had both Gomez and The Decemberists play very intimate, low profile shows.

Good news for those of you coming down to Austin for the ACL fest. Every year that Wilco has played the ACL fest, they have also played an additional show (usually the day before their ACL set) which is sponsored by Charles Attal ( the festival promoter for both ACL and Lollapolloza). For the festivals first year (2002) Wilco played a relatively small club called the Mercury Room (now called the Parish Room) as a "secret, private show." I was lucky enough to attend this show (which Tweedy would latter dub, the band's best show ever.) After 2002, Attal began booking festival bands to play "OFFI

I was at the cd release party at sxsw and heard most of the album. Not a huge Bright Eyes fan, but I was impressed with thie record. By far the most rocking Bright Eyes album to date.

What is this?

I miss Dev!!! Hey one good thing came out of this jayfer malfunction. I bought some phentramine and can now fit into my skinny jeans. Problem is i cant sleep a wink, I guess i need to purchase soma too?

Excellent show!!! I actually liked the fact that they played in San Antonio (somewhat of a neutral site, forcing the diearhards from Austin and elswhere to make the drive, and leaving the talkative assholes behind.) Crowd was very into the music, at least from my perspective. However did notice that after the second encore, the guitar tech brought out Jeff's acoustic, but he waved her off. Could of had the first third encore of the tour!!, but I guess Jeff didnt want to break precedent. Sunken Treasure more in line with the album version, though Jeff stopped after the first chorus and re-s
