Oh, man. Really sorry to hear this.

I have 4 hard tickets for STL at the Fabulous Fox. Orch 2, Row K, outside aisle, seats 21-27. $50 each, no fees. PM me or post here. Vince

YIPPEEE!!!

"Nope" is a Mikael-driven krautrock / EDM mashup with some seriously heavy pedal steel woven in, with very few lyrics which are mostly indiscernible.

I totally get the premise. My first reaction to the album title was a groan. It's like they're looking for names for novelty records, a la Weird Al or something. For SW, we were able to hear the music at the same time we heard the title, so there wasn't much time to react solely to the title. And I love the music on SW. And the first two songs we have from this one sound great too. But yeah, the titles are off-putting for me. Not indicative of the music at all. I get that the band isn't taking itself so seriously, so that's great. But it sure seems like they're going a little over the

This tune would not be out of place on Sukierae either.

I didn't. I put in my email, and it took me straight to a download screen. That email was the same one that Wilco already uses to send me updates, fwiw.

Funny, I was just listening to that Rochester show over the weekend, and yes it's quite good (even considering it's outdoors). I have night 6 of the Winterlude shows from the roadcase, and I think it sounds great. I'm probably biased on that one though. VC-->BBN. Hoo boy.

I got a long legalese email on this last month, and I can see around 15 or so vouchers and ticket pairs listed today. My favorite line in the email was this:

Mostly overplanted basil... which will lead to an oversupply of pesto... which is just fine with me.

Make it happen! But skip the opener, so maybe that'll help with logistics.

Day off! woohoo! Smokin' a couple butts out on the deck... pork butts, that is.

I liked "Dreams" a lot, but I'm just not into the full scale hip-hop stuff. Hoping the new record will swing more to the "Dreams" end of that scale.

I'd call that the "Best Set List Possible Without Bull Black Nova"

You totally made that up, didn't you?

No, not quite yet.

Most fun I've had at a show in a while. Gary looked / played / sounded great. The new stuff mixed right in with the rest of the show. The band came out after the show and mingled and merch'ed for quite a while. Great crowd (definitely a Friday night crowd).

The Jayhawks

We loved seeing everyone again and really enjoyed the show on Friday. The banter throughout the evening was a real treat. Jeff mentioned at one point how great we were as an audience, not being too interruptive, and that we should keep it like that. Naturally, things got more interactive after that. On the "Star Wars" album title, Jeff said that he asked his lawyer if the band could use "Star Wars" as the name the new record. His lawyer said no. Then Jeff suggested "Schindler's List". His lawyer then said "Let's go with Star Wars". The audience questions (first 30 in line) were jotted

Hey, it's Friday the 13th. Your stuff will move itself!

Ok, I'll start - Jeff Tweedy!

I'm all set... locking the thread. See you all Friday!

once more with feeling - BUMP!

On May 1, 2014, Wilco announced "Solid Sound returns to MASS MoCA in North Adams, MA, June 26-28, 2015." As today is May 2, 2016.... boys, you're late. Let's get with it.
