Is it just me or was this the best version of Passenger Side ever?

This song just reminded be. . . whoever it is who maintains the lyrics website at bemydemon.org is my hero. It's so nice to go to a clean, well organized site for a lyric without popup ads.

Wow, they are really stirring the pot on this show, aren't they? GREAT to hear all these songs!

Sure am glad I caught the show last night, 'cause I ain't having a bit of luck tonight.

Holy mother of god, 39 songs, if I counted right! How do they do this night after night?

Amen! I was thinking the same thing. Even though I'm home alone, just me and my computer, I feel connected to all you Wilco fans and to Jeff and the boys. What a show!

I guess it might come off as a little cranky when Jeff schools the audience, but that's what's so refreshing about him. Last night in Richmond, for instance, I had yelled out a couple of requests for Passenger Side (OK, 3 times) and then when he got ready to play it he said something about "well, I know somebody's just been requesting this song, but that's not why we're playing it. It was on the setlist already." Like, hey, we're not doing you any favors! Some might interpret that as cranky, but to me it's just Jeff being Jeff. He's got integrity, and I love him for it.

I was there last night, after finally being able to score a ticket (thanks, Scott!) and what a show it was. I'm so glad everyone has posted setlists--I get so into the moment at Wilco shows that I don't remember anything but feeling overwhelmed with joy. I'd love it if someone was taping the show, just to relive it a little. The National is definitely a great place for hearing live music, and the perfect venue for Wilco. Big enough to get that crowd energy going but intimate as well. And let's not forget the fact that it's general admission, so no sitting allowed (on the floor, at least)! I ki
