Madcap

We were out in Napa last week and stayed about a 2 min drive from Oxbow Market.  Really cool place with great food, although I wish our timing was just a little better so we could have seen the show!

My Half Life/I Can't showed up today and both songs are just awesome.  Their next album could be OTJ part II and I would love it.

Very exciting to see that they changed the set up a bit, hopefully that bodes well for the rest of the tour/future shows.

Yep, I inquired about the Half Life single as well since I already got the SK one.  $18 is steep but I'm excited that it's being offered.

Fun show, I was pleasantly surprised at how spacious summerfest was, and the level up area was fantastic.  Still a little disappointed at the lack of variety in the setlist, even though I kind of figured that would be the case.  Very curious to see what the full show fall tour brings on that front.

How early did you all get to the shows to get the Wilco b sides single?  I showed up at merch about 5:45 last night and it was sold out .  Split single sounds great though!

It is now a little after 8 AM, and I just got back from the beer line. Why did I miss?

 

I hadn’t been to the pritzker since the last time Wilco was there and I was stunned to see that they hadn’t remedied that issue at all.  I have no idea why they didn’t have all the tents open, just leaving money on the table.

Going into the show I didn’t think I would be bummed about a short Wilco set since we had SK as well, but damn 90 minutes went by super quick. Seeing them again at Summerfest and I’m guessing it’ll be the same thing there too. Hopefully they vary the set a little bit, but I’m not holding my breath.
 

They were also sold out of the OTJ b sides 7 inch when I got there a little before 6 which was a major bummer. Hopefully that shows up in the Wilcostore soon.

It’s $60 for a year, not $60 a month or something, totally worth it.

Awesome, thanks!

Couple of questions for those who have seen shows on this tour - How long has Nnamdi been playing and how efficient has the vaccination card checks been?  We have a dinner reservation at 4:30 (lol) on Saturday and am a little nervous about missing Nnamdi’s set.

Really hope HTW sticks around for the rest of the tour.

Sleater Kinney announced that proof of vaccination or a negative test within 48 hours of showtime is now required for a bunch of the remaining Wilco shows.  Hopefully Wilco announces something similar for the rest of their shows after the SK tour too.  It's the only way forward it seems like.

Oh man they better still have both of those available for Chicago!

Signed up for the mid-tier option, hoping to get some cool tour anecdotes and stuff.  

Extremely jealous of anyone who is able to go to that Jeff/Nels show.

Hopefully we can start filling this thread again soon!  Jeff is playing the opening of a new venue in Brooklyn on 9/30 and 10/1.

We did tulum and cenotes/snorkeling with turtles last year and while they were both pretty cool, not sure we’ll do any next year.  Spend more time at the beach and allow myself to enjoy the late night shows without having to worry about the next day.

Such a painless process, but I'm also glad that we had an early presale time and went with one of the more generic room types again.  Would be great if every ticket buying experience was this easy!

lol that’s me in the packers hat and my wife on the store picture on the front page of the site.

Lineup is so good.  Was curious to see how they would top the first one and it’s possible they did.  Will definitely be going again.

I mean, Spoon, Kurt Vile and Malkmus is insane.  Very pumped that there’s a Nels set too, even though I wish it was the singers.  Can’t wait to start familiarizing myself with the other artists.

Looks like I'll be bailing on the Trampled by Turtles show in Green Bay in favor of two nights of Dead and Company that weekend so I will likely have a gold circle ticket available if anyone is looking!

Is that date official? I don’t see it on summerfest or Wilco’s website.

ope, see you can filter by date. Awesome.

Summerfest just announced their initial lineup and Wilco is a ground stage headliner.  Will have to be one of the first two weekends since the third weekend is the TBT tour dates.  Haven’t seen a ground show at summerfest in 20 years but I think I’ll break my streak for this!

I like that Jeff seemed relatively confident about the SK tour, but even hearing it in question has my anxiety through the roof!

Trey and Mike have both been quoted as saying summer is unlikely, maybe fall, and definitely 2022.  I honestly wish they would just rip the bandaid off and cancel already if its not going to happen.  I was supposed to go back to Deer Creek for the first time since 2010 and it bums me out that its likely not going to happen.
