im sorry i just dont get the question it makes absolutely no sense

Poll is this poll stupid? is this poll fucking stupid?

kissing: i realize that and my comment is meant to be taken with 3 grains of salt

dont be bitter dude, sorry you dont choose to live in the greatest american city that the greatest american band calls home

who are they opening for?

Yes Jeff was a big fan of the Volkswagon Tower but the Willis tower was a huge downer for him

wendy i do have patience and my work schedule makes travelling tough right now I do look for threads, i just hadnt seen one so i figured I'd start my own and hollinger....no need for me to waste my time anymore

Says Tweedy,

You dont see the white stripes playing any places lately In the past bands with certain allegiances to certain cities play a lot of shows there, obviously its not a blanket statement but bands that tend to have certain relationships with fans or a tendency/reputation as a live act tend to play more shows a year and thus more shows in their home towns. That was an impressive run on sentence The example of the Dead comes to mind immediately but on a smaller scale in Chicago alone look at Umphrees McGee i agree that people in those cities seem spoiled but you cant blame good geography and

yes its been 1 1/2 years since the residency so lets say since the beginning of 07 its been 6 shows counting the residency and lolla are you happy VC? i was simply asking why there werent any dates announced for 09 and if anybody knew of any and to mr hollinger: thanks for the info about no dates being released yet i couldnt have found that info anywhere else!!! it was a half-assed sarcastic type of complaint initially but yeah we can be and deserve to be a bit spoiled in chicago this is the bands adopted hometown you would expect them to play a few times a year especially since they're

wow arent the out of town people touchy on this board sure we're somewhat spoiled living in chicago when it comes to wilco so was san fran when it came to the dead....big deal since the residency they've played one show (lolla) I was simply asking if they had plans to play anything else before september since nothing is listed I dont care if the Autum Defense Liberation or Pat or Glen have solo shows here, sorry while many may clamor over those shows, I do not I was simply asking a question about wilco playing in chicago its not my fault that they and I live in the best city in the Unite

Where is this show? I say you spite her and give me the ticket

So what does this mean? Aside from Lolla last year, they havent played a show in Chicago in over a year and based on the schedule it looks like it wont be at least until september But the Lolla weekend is open, does this mean a repeat appearance (doubt they'd do it twice in a row) or does it mean a multinight fall run?

being there but i havent listened to summerteeth in months so that could soon replace being there

AM: casino Queen: just like the album raw, fun, and not that mature or great BT: tough one....sunken treasure b/c i cant think of another better one ST: Via Chicago YHF: Ashes of American Flags (perfect song for the perfect post 9/11 album) AGIB: Less Than You Think: how can you not pick the song which is supposed to be a musical migraine for an album filled migraines/painkillers SBS: Impossible Germany

"Nothing like paying $100 for a seat, waiting for 2 hours in freezing temps, only to have an obstructed view seat. The obstruction : the LCD on the camera belonging to the hipster dufus sitting in front of you. " damn that sucks on multiple levels but mostly the 2 hour wait in freezing temps I wandered in at 715 and ended up with four seats together on stage left side in the 2nd row behind the 250 dollar section cant wait until this show gets posted

thanks for the info sue if im not goin balcony i have a special secret spot all picked out sue since i probably wont be able to get out of work early enough to get in line for the first 30....remember "Reservations" for Melissa thanks again and see you in a week

So if we bought 100 dollar seats does this mean we cant go up on the balcony? i was hoping to grab a seat in the first few rows of the balcony....if no this really sucks for multiple reasons I understand that you have to try to sell all the tickets but if thsi was an option from day one i would have def been on board

Sue thanks again for such a great thing. and again please dont forget Reservations Fake Platic Trees both on friday night. thanks again

Dear Jeff Please play this song on Feb 13th Thank you sir, Todd

So I saw he played Fake Plastic Trees on 1/29 Was this a first? Does he play it often? Surprised there wasnt much talk about it in the show thread.

Cant wait, unfortunately both of us have to rearrange our work schedules. Last year i literally walked in 15 min before show time and got an amazing seat. Hopefully my secret place is still there

nevermind they were just late Woo-hoo Friday the 13th.....time to get Freaky Deaky with Tweedy

So i guess the 100 dollar tickets are either delayed in being released or will not be released since the show looks sold out?

woo hoo!! thanks sue I've been eagerly awaiting this since last year. PS: Tell Jeff thanks inadvance for playing Reservations and dedicating it to Melissa.
