Hey everybody. Missed the onsale of these shows, and of course they sold out in minutes, so here I am ticketless.
If anybody has an extra for any of the nights, I'd gladly buy it off of you.
Thank you!
-
The album title and the album artwork are hilarious. I love it. Such a welcome surprise. Bring on the Schmilco!
-
If anybody has an extra ticket for this show, I'd gladly buy it from you! I'll buy you a drink at the show as well. Cheers!

It was rough, but from the get go I searched for only a single ticket and snagged a front row orchestra seat for the Sep 14 LA show.... so pumped.... Sometimes it pays to have no friends. Ha ha.
These are presales though.... Hard to know how many tickets the band had available for each night. Might have better chances at the general sale on Friday.
-
Or if a band recorded an album that sounded like R.E.M.'s "Around The Sun" and then a couple years later put out an album that sounded like R.E.M.'s "Accelerate"...
Oh. Wait a minute...

Lotti, I don't know you, but you're awesome!
-
That Lotti fan mail reading was one of the most bizarre/epic/hilarious/entertaining things i've ever heard. If Jeff wants to release another book of poetry, just publish those emails. I'd buy 3 copies like that.
Such a great night, the setlist was excellent, and Jeff was in a very talkative and joking mood, which was great. His version of "I Hate It Here" was just awesome/hilarious.
-
Bumping this up again, just in case anyone has any extra tickets for any of the 3 remaining Largo shows. I'll gladly pay you for the ticket plus buy you dinner/provide good company and display proper audience etiquette as well (no annoying offtime clapping or randomw outbursts of yelling and hollering).
Thanks again, I'd love to go to any of the shows!
-
Just saw this thread, this is the coolest. It makes me so happy to read and to have witnessed. That was definitely a highlight of the Santa Barbara show!
-
Sounds awesome, I love the Largo and would have loved to have gotten a ticket to any of the shows this week. Saw Andrew Bird there last year and it is such a cool, small, intimate venue. (that having been said... if anyone has an extra ticket for any of the next 3 Largo shows I'll take it off your hands and buy you dinner as well.
Hope he beats this cold soon, he was sounding like he was catching something in Santa Barbara. He wiped his nose once in the middle of The Ruling Class I believe, and then made a weird "why did I do that?" face afterwards. Funny, but no good when you have a string of shows lined up.

I made the drive up to Santa Barbara from L.A. after the Largo ticket fiasco yielded no tickets. It was a great show, I was close to the stage, 3 rows back on the right side. Unfortunately I was in front of the annoying clapper that provoked Jeff up until his "blow up" in Bull Black Nova. Let me tell you, Jeff was totally justified in getting upset and annoyed, this guy really was ruining the show for me as well. I couldn't believe how inconsiderate this guy was. The weird thing is, from the looks of him he looked like a huge Wilco/Tweedy fan. He was wearing a Wilco shirt and a Wilco scarf.... I think in some weird way he thought he was being cute/funny/somehow enhancing the show by interacting directly with Jeff. He kept clapping/chuckling with his friend about the clapping comments up until Jeff directly yelled at him during BBN. I guess being publicly called out does the trick because dude didn't clap once more the entire night. Not after any song, end of the set, nothing. I just don't get why people pay $50 for a ticket, buy a bunch of merch, support an artist, and then show up and be a jerk. Baffles me.
And it really bothers me that this clown along with a couple other goofballs in the crowd may have made Jeff cut the set short. I would've killed to hear Art of almost and Misunderstood live.

Hey everyone, now that these shows are just around the corner I wanted to check in and see if anyone has any extras for any night at the Largo. I'd love to go, help a fan out! Thanks!
-
That Largo fiasco was a complete clusterjam. A friend and I were both trying for 45 minutes, entering info over and over, error page after error page. Ended up having to get tickets for the Santa Barbara show.... road trip her I come.

Hey all,
Tried for 45 minutes to get through The Largo's primitive ticket site, even got far enough to enter credit card info a couple times, but nothing went through. Sad.
If anyone has any extra tickets I would really really really appreciate it if you let me buy them from you. any of the 4 nights in L.A. would be excellent.
Thanks!

Thanks!

Sorry to be a bother, but could someone PM this track? thanks!

Awesome show! The surprise duet with Feist was worth the price of admission alone. Plus, we got gems like Pot Kettle Black, Can't Stand It, Passenger Side, Pick Up the Change, I'm Always In Love, and the killer closing number Outtasite! My only small complaint was I was hoping for another unexpected opener like Via Chicago from Tuesday night, but that's it! Alll in all, it's been an AMAZING week of Wilco shows in southern California. THANK YOU WILCO!!!!

And here's a couple from closer up:
(In the words of Otto from The Simpsons... "You know those guitars that are, like... double guitars?")
Such a great show. This was my 6th time seeing Wilco, and it was hands down the best yet. It was so great to hear the unexpected songs like Pick Up The Change, Passenger Side, Hoodoo Voodoo, and especially Can't Stand It! After seeing the band play setlists containing songs primarily from YHF on through SBS, it was so great to hear these older tracks. Amazing.
One of my favorite points in the show was during Jesus, Etc. That was one of the first times I really noticed the interaction between Jeff and the awesome kids in the front. Jeff was looking at them, grinning ear to ear while singing. And when I followed his gaze over to the front side of the crowd, I saw some of the happiest, most darling kids, singing along to EVERY WORD. It was such an amazing, cool moment that was followed up by the entire crowd singing along with the "Our love is all of God's money" lines. It was such a beautiful musical moment, one that I won't ever forget.
Amazing, amazing, incredible night. I'm sooo excited for the 3 Wiltern shows. I can't wait to hear what other surprises the band will throw into their setlists!

I have an extra ticket. I've sent you a PM with my contact info. Let me know if you still need one!
-
Would someone mind PM-ing me a link to the rip? I would be forever thankful.
Thanks!!!!
