The Duluth Wilco show just rocked! It was a surreal exprerience with the freaky blowing misty weather and then having the band sort of just lean into it. Then, how about the 1000 foot laker drifting along the venue and then under the bridge out to Lake Superior during the show. We were standing about twenty yards back and center and heard someone say this was the best concert they'ed ever seen. It was just a lot of fun despite, (because of?) the elements.

Dang, that really bites. Was so looking forward to the show tomorrow night with a pre-show bar-b-q on the deck and friends coming up from the twin cities. At least the show wasn't cancelled - just have to wait a few more weeks for the return to Duluth. Hoping for a full and speedy recovery.

There are nice hotels in Canal Park, and also a Radisson and Holiday Inn - all walkable to the park - and a Sheraton (not so walkable). There is plenty to do including getting out on Lake Superior, Park Point, going up the shore, the Lakewalk, and hanging in Canal Park.

New member and first post. Anyway, getting totally fired up now for the outdoor Duluth, MN show Aug. 14 at Bayfront Park. It's a great venue adjacent to Lake Superior and the harbor. Saw Dylan (homecoming for Bob) and Paul Simon there a few years back (a most impressive setting and night). Wilco played indoors here last July '06 for the first time in Duluth and here they are again the following summer. What a deal for northern MN!!
