I'm amazed that i've been to these the last 5 years and have yet to see a sunken treasure. Do people just assume somebody else will pick it or is the song not nearly as popular as i think it should be?

Sue: thanks for the last minute request for laminated cat. Was supposed to be for Melissa (my wife's) soon to be born child but it went just to melissa instead.... we were happy nonetheless

have 32 of those albums

ready to die deserves to be way higher on that list

Tried to PM yesterday and today and said you cant receive messages.....do you still have them?

toddhagle@yahoo.com

I'll buy them now

Ok so my wife just got her work schedule changed and .....................friday night is now sold out.

Who wants to make a pregnant woman happy 4 weeks before she's due?

sweet i made the video

Ok so I didn't get a metro ticket. That means I could really use one for lincoln hall. Cmon I like wilco, I like charity, and hopefully you like me enough to get me in.

IF you didnt get rid of it via trade. I would love to trade you cash for the ticket.

oh my email is toddhagle@yahoo.com

Yeah i really could use one. In exchange I can provide you with good ol' American cash (of course equal to the face value of the ticket). Its a win win for you. You get the pleasure of sharing in the holiday spirit by getting me into the show and you get to walk away with money.

interested...lets chat

Have one for tonight....toddhagle@yahoo.com

Woo hoo. 4th row just left of center. It will be our 4.5 month old fetus' 1st show.

i have one for tomorrow if you want it, sorry its only one but you're halfway home

My friend (not on this forum) has an extra for Monday

row 0 seat 30 balcony left

face value plus ticketbastard charges

please message me here or at toddhagle@yahoo.com

he's in chicago city

oh yeah... and "the best life never leaves your lungs"

this quote is so good you wont ever know

The song has been mentioned but not the line: When I forget how to talk, I sing

I love "Short on long term goals"

"I shake like a toothache, when I hear myself sing"

god there are so many

The opening bass line with slowly building guitar intro to Radio Cure. I never really appreciated this song until I had it turned way up on a great surround system.

Its hard to describe why and how good the first 20 secs or so (before the vocals) are.

Why are you surprised? I got two tickets and I'm still in shock that I got them. I had no doubt that this woudl be an extremely difficult ticket. Only Chicago show in over a year, at a tiny beautiful place.

I have 3 friends who i think got shut out. Is there another presale ?

No idea.. When did you get them? I might have messed up. Got in at 10:00 and 2 seconds or something and got denied for center, then put in for 2 left of center tickets and got row E seats 6,8.

Psyched, thought this would be a lot tougher.

Ripple!?!?! damn and I decided to stay home tonight.

Also to whoever was taping...first row third section on the right (unfortunately right in front of Jeff's life coach who wouldn't shut up).

Please let us know where and when you will post/upload the show.

Thanks in advance.

He went on at 740 last night. We got there at 705, walked right up and found 2 seats center in the 5th row of non 150 dollar tickets. PERFECT

"So i'm kind of on the fence about going. I've seen wilco lots of times and always loved it, but I've never seen Tweedy solo. What can I expect? Like how long does he play for and is there an opening band?

I'm just not sure because I'm kind of worried if it will be lacking something since it's not full band. I've heard plenty of Jeff Tweedy solo shows, but I'm not sure what it'd be like to actually be there. Anyone have any insight?"

I've seen Wilco probably less than I've seen Jeff solo now. Living in Chicago surprisingly gives you more chances to see Jeff than the band alone. I actually prefer these shows. The setlists are less predicatable (especially at the charity shows) and there is something so natural and perfect about these songs performed by just a man and an acoustic guitar. It definately gives them a different life which, in a lot of instances, I actually prefer.

Great all around show as always

Random Thoughts

1) Shake it off: great, not sure why this is considered a "controversial Wilco song" surprised at how good it sounded solo

2) Laminated Cat: still amazed and how much sound he gets out of one guitar for this

3) Overall setlist did have a great mix and was psyched to hear Employer and Thirteen

4) As far as the sing along comments....it works for some songs, but to be honest I want to hear Jeff sing, not my wife or the guy next to me. I appreciate the quiet respectful crowd that sang when appropriate and I didn't think it wasnt "lively"

5) Surprised he said something along the lines of "this would be a great sing a long but most of you probably dont know the words" before Candyfloss.

Was really surprised that

1) He didn't open with Spiders (I loved Future Age so I'm not complaining) just figured with April 15th being the traditional Tax day that it was the perfect opener

2)Surprised he didnt play I Got You after At My window...would have been a perfect way to close

THANKS SUE!!!!!

Woo hoo!!!!

Oral Boards for Anesthesia that week, what a great post test present sue!!!!
