  1. I've been in the Atlanta waiting room since 9:50. Refreshed at 10:10. Still nothing, and I've got two other people on the phone also still in the waiting room. I have seniority in the realm of Wilco tickets, what is this crap?!
  2. still in the waiting room, crying.
  3. let's hope that since frontgate didn't know what they were doing & the process was so annoying that the regular sale on friday will give us all what we need
  4. I'm never skimping on Asheville again! I wish I had gone. GREAT setlist! I think *some* of us are a little spoiled after the Residency shows... I only went to two of them (the first two) and I myself feel quite spoiled! But the last few nights have been rockin' nonetheless! Fantastic shows actually. I think we may have had our heads blown last February......
  5. 2nd time for the Classic Center as well ~ I hate knowing to expect bad sound and weird setup. I thought they might have been in the other theatre on monday....but I got there early anyway to get as close as possible as I knew this was most likely not one of those "enjoy the orchestra/balcony and be blown away by the amazing sound" shows... classic center is definitely a " get drunk, enjoy the gymnasium feel, and be blown away by the amazing sights - and hope for a decent tape afterward" ~ they really screw up with the "bar" section, but it's nothing to do with concrete floor - maybe the CARPE
  6. !!! outtasite (outta mind) AND outta mind (outtasite) ~ that was awesome. Lovin' the (almost) perfect blend of songs from every album. Was hoping for a new song though.... But I really can't complain! What a great show. Fantastic set! Loved the crowd too! Next best thing to a Chicago crowd that I've seen in the south lately Athens, here I come! OH ~ and totally wasn't expecting the opening band!! VERY pleasant surprise, I'm glad I didn't skip it like I had intended to!
  7. !!!!! ummm... someone save me a spot if I don't make it from ATL in time?? This is my 8th show!! SO EXCITED!!!! and the brewery sounds fantastic, I think my hotel is within walking distance!
  8. I'll be driving up there from Atlanta at a ridiculous hour... hope I'm not too tired for the show that night after attempting this! I was sad to leave Atlanta's Record Store Day festivities... until I heard about this!
  9. let me know if you have two tickets for knoxville! rachel2229@hotmail.com thanks!!!
  10. *andrew bird & the venus 3 also on the roo lineup ~ collaborations pleeeeeeease thanks.
  11. Obama rumors!!!! Sweet!! My first Wilco show was Farm Aid 2005....Some senator introduced Wilco... I didn't know why he got a standing ovation (especially since nobody else did - Dave, Neil Young, Willie Nelson... nope, no ovation) and I couldn't figure out why his voice gave me goosebumps... but when I returned home from my adventure and told my Mom alllllll about it, all she had to say is: "That man is our future president" I would love to recreate that moment when our future President introduces my favorite band, and I promise to understand its importance this time around Oh, and I'
  12. I will be digging into savings for this. I go to bed and wake up every night hoping these rumors are true!!!!
  13. Ugh. I read this thread way too fast. I had my entire vacation planned out before my boyfriend told me to read it a little closer...... UGH!!!! It's doable though. Charleston for sure. Asheville would be amazing. Don't tell any of the haters but........I was secretly very very excited that the show was moved to August as opposed to this weekend..... I guess the secret is out! I'm stoked!
  14. I bought a frame from target that looked almost perfect... turns out it was about a CM too small in the width (but on a good note, my wilco chicago skyline poster will fit with no problem )... I guess I'll try building a frame from Michael's if nobody has any luck. PS - If anyone DOES have all 5 posters, I want to see them all together!!!!!! pleeeeease
  15. oh my goodness.... i went to friday & saturday.... but i am sitting in atlanta SO JEALOUS tonight!!!!!!! stupid school/work.... i hope this is the beginning of "anything goes" at wilco shows to come!!!
  16. Wow. Just That Simple... Andrew Bird... a real Encore.... and there is so much more I just can't say it because all I can say is Wow. Best weekend ever WOW!!!!!!!!!
  17. It's 65 here (atlanta) today, and I can't wait to get to Chicago - but I wish I could bring this weather with me!! I mean, what can you do, other than wear everything you own, to stay warm?!?! I'm scared....
  18. Is this the wrong place to ask if cameras are usually ok at this place? I had to beg at the auditorium theatre for my expensive camera not to get thrown out.... it was very scary and ended up tossing the batteries to call it even. But I dont want to bother bringing one if it's gonna get "tossed" before I make it in
  19. most favorite wilco album in my vinyl collection: Down With Wilco.
  20. Well, we're staying in the Medical District, so I think we'll be eating gyros and calzones all weekend!
  21. Welllll, since we're on the topic of restaurants in Chicago, I am very very very open to suggestions on where to spend Thursday (Valentine's Day! ) with my boyfriend, as we'll be arriving early that evening. We'd love to have dinner downtown or uptown to celebrate our favorite city, favorite band, and favorite people (each other) ~ doesn't have to be fancy, outrageous or expensive, mainly just some freakin' awesome food! Anyway, any direction would be great! Thanks! OH YEAH AND I FORGOT TO MENTION HOW EXCITED I AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :rock
