  1. I love that mask! I haven’t posted here for so long, but I’m so happy to see the play-by-play synopsis ... thanks to u2roolz and everyone! Love it!
  2. I thought she was talking about the “first 30 people in line get to request a song” thing. Like maybe it might become a solo fundraiser show where Jeff plays what he wants to play, and however many songs he wants to play. I think he mentioned on stage that 30 is a lot! That made total sense to me at the time, because it’s definitely a lot of work for him to brush up on the songs and create a proper setlist sequence on the spot. Fans like to stump him with deep cuts which he hasn’t played for a long time, and he literally walks in the building without any idea what he’s going to play. It’s
  3. Calexico - new one coming out in a couple of weeks. "The Thread That Keeps Us" - a couple of songs below "End of the World With You" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsuWX5TMF4w "Voices in the Field" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TU1lFU__2fI&index=2&list=RD9Xq2CnmSB_M
  4. I am able to re-watch this, so if you missed it, it seems still available for view. I can't leave a link since it's on my TV and I don't know how to do that right now. Can anyone else post a replay link?
  5. Just like Jeff said they did in South America!
  6. Yes! Second encore! Completely agree with the great opportunity this video provided to see Mikael and Glenn from that overhead vantage point of view! Awesome!!!
  7. It took me 2 songs worth of time to key in the URL for my TV with better sound system. But worth it if you can't be there in person! Band is sounding and looking great!
  8. Aaaahhhhh! I love it - "If I Ever Was A Child" Just beautiful! Two weeks until Seattle! (Edited to add we also heard new "Locator" )
  9. Did you click on "Start New Live Stream" in upper right corner? From this link: http://www.thecurrent.org/listen
  10. Great stream! I even got it to feed through my new smart TV, which I'n not used to yet, but has some good speakers attached! Yesssss! Agree, lost highway! This sounds terrific!

    Agree! And I like it ... a lot!
  12. I have had the worst nightmares with streaming audio/video since upgrading to Windows 10. Only got to see last few songs by the time I "fixed" it. At least that included "California Stars" with Jason Isbell joining in with Nels!
  13. Finally I got some decent seats (way off to Nels' side though) for Sat. in Seattle.
  14. That is not Jeff's handwriting, it's Warner's. Nice style, I agree completely! "More ..." worked really well stripped down solo acoustic, a worthy choice for the solo setting. In fact, Jeff did mention appreciation that we chose some newer songs from his catalog!
  15. Shut out here for Sat night Seattle. Not surprised, this is a pretty small venue.
  16. Incredible day of music and friendship this past weekend in Chicago! So grateful to Jeff and Susan Tweedy for returning to the Second City Letters to Santa auction after a few years break, and once again offering Jeff to perform to raise money for the Chicago charity. According to Jeff, this evening was the first solo debut of "King of You." It also turned out to be a most beautiful day weather-wise, allowing us to be outdoors and enjoy the sunshine before the show began, and the full "Blue Moon" at the end. Many thanks to the amazing Coleman family for their hospitality and the many old
  17. To the original poster: Here's our thread about visiting Chicago,. It is lengthy and has been added to over the years, so be aware some info may be outdated. You'll have to verify important info yourself. I think there is some "Wilco tourism" info in this thread, you'll have to scan to find it. http://viachicago.org/topic/35877-going-to-chicagowhat-to-do-see-stay-etc/ Good luck visiting Chicago's Wilco locations!
  18. I would really have liked to visit this venue - I love the little places!
  19. Ashtray, I'm with you! I'm thinking its some incredible combination of awesome Hollywood/Second City alumn actors and comedians with love for Wilco and Jeff & Sue. You know they're out there. Nick Offerman. Jon Hamm. Fred Armisen ... I think we had a thread here once upon a time about celebrity fans of Wilco. Any one of those folks might have a little extra dough for charity And It's a tax write off, ya know! It really is all good.
  20. According to a friend who was watching this online auction from Canada, it went into "extended bidding" at $67,000, and ultimately sold for ... ... ... $135,000 !!!!!!!!!!
