Funny stuff when Jeff commented about the speed of the repair to Glenn's bass drum pedal being like NASCAR.

I had fun. Thanks, Wilco.

I am not distracting to people around me in the least. It's super low key. I have friends that can't be here that like to follow along in real time. Relax, folks.

In case anybody here is interested, I was posting the setlist as it happened last night on Twitter, along with some pics & it turned out to be a pretty fun thing to do with those playing along at home, so I figure I'll do it again tonight. So if any of you are interested in following along, my Twitter handle is @bryontreece. Although, I'm probably bound to get stumped by some rarities, so take it easy on me if I screw up! I'm sure this final show of the run is going to be a doozy!!

I can't figure out how to delete this post, but the tickets have been sold. Thanks for your interest. Good luck to ALL!!!

I'll be at the show tonight Wed. 10/29 if you want to meet up there, otherwise we would have to meet up near Port Jefferson on Long Island sometime today or tomorrow. I have two GA floors available for Thursday night. Total after fees is $160.19, but I'm just looking for $60.00 each to make it an even $120.00. Either reply here or my email address is bryontreece at gmail dot com. Drop me a note & we'll work it out. Thanks.

Was there banjo in WTWGIS??

I'm pretty sure that's not how this works. The studio audience for the taping of the actual Late Show will be completely gone before the Wilco show. Letterman tapes his show, I believe, around 4:30 or so. The place will be cleared out & after that it will be ALL Wilco fans entering the theatre @ 7:30pm for Wilco's 8:00pm show.

I have to drive into the city tonight for the Letterman gig. In consideration of all of these traffic issues due to the UN business, if I'm coming in from Queens, do you think it would be best to avoid the LIE/Midtown Tunnel, & take Queens Blvd. to the 59th St. bridge, or just go tunnel?? ANy sage advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Yes! I am one of the Twitter Haiku contest winners!! This is gonna be special. I believe the Ed Sullivan Theatre's capacity is only 400. It's my wife's b-day that day too, and needless to say, she is a huge Wilco fan as well. Can't wait!!

D'OH!! Spoke too soon....I just got 2! Very nice.

Well, the AMEX presale for NYC was a total fail.

Ahhh...good to know!

Thanks for the tip!

Yup.

Thanks. I've never done an AMEX presale before, but I've heard that you do have to put in a password, but then you can actually use any credit card to complete the purchase once you're in. We'll soon see....

I was on @ 9:50am to try for 2 NYC tickets. Got thrown into the waiting room & by the time I got out of it, no more tickets available. I'll try for the 12:00pm Amex pre-sale. Anybody know what the pasword is??

As Triumph the Insult Comic Dog says, "I Keeeed!" (that's "kid", as in "joke", if it's not apparent.)

That may be the first time such a statement has ever been uttered! **Just Joshin'.

"Word on the street is that the rainbow SG also made an appearance, which makes sense as I think I've only seen it used on Casino Queen." The Rainbow SG did in fact make an appearance. It was used for all 3 encore songs.

Oops on the Outtamind acoustic faux pas. Now I'm really going to sleep!

Mikael "The Situation" Jorgensen!!

I have no idea what "heightful" means. Are you going for "hateful"?? Or are you referring to him being taller??

"Wishful Thinking" has always reminded me of the Golden Girls theme.
