This was my first Wilco show and it was a GREAT ONE. However, I have to agree with this statement about the sound. I was over on Nels' side, about 15 or 20 feet back. The sound was thick and muddy, which I have to say kept me from achieving total bliss. It got very crowded around me just before Wilco came on, lots of folks elbowed through who hadn't gotten there early like the rest of us. But that's been the norm at any concert I've ever been to (over a hundred, probably). Nothing that took away from my enjoyment of the night. Just another picky . . . Lee
