I still don't know if my seats are assigned or Ticketmaster is just goofy. I guess I'll just get there before 7 to be safe. Wilco fans are fun to talk to, anyhow.

so my Friday night ticket just showed up and it has a start time of 8pm listed, which I believe is an hour later than what Sue's post stated. Can we cet a confirmation? Thanks!

Err. Sorry, I meant to say her LAST post (see above) says, "Doors open at 7pm, show starts at 8pm."

That's also what Ticketmaster says.

Hi all,

So, I got some of the $250 tickets, and they say G.A. as we all know. But they also say Row G5 Seats 41 and 42.

I was always under the assumption that there were just different sections of G.A., but no assigned seats. My tickets have seat numbers. What's what? Are the seat numbers valid, or is it just ticketmaster doing the goofy things ticketmaster does?

Any ideas?

The past week has meant more to me than possibly anything in my life up until this point, and no, that's not hyperbole. It really did.

Thanks, guys.

I don't like how I never know who to look at more!

Two nights in a row now, I've been so focused on Jeff and Nels that I am nearly completely missing out on just how amazing of a guitar player -- and showman -- Pat is! Truly, the only conclusion I can come to is that the band needs to play on a much smaller stage, possibly in single file, with spotlights to direct our attention where necessary.

But seriously, I hadn't picked up on the different strengths each member brings to the show in past concerts to the degree that I have noticed it in this residency, so far. Maybe it's the unique nature of the shows getting them pumped up? Maybe it's the hometown crowd? I don't know. But these are far and away the best Wilco shows I've seen. Hell, best concerts I've seen, period, really...

My pictures from the first two nights can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kowgod/collec...57603922842347/

Be gentle. I don't claim to be a skilled photographer in any stretch of the imagination. They're mostly for my own enjoyment. The remaining shows will be posted, as well.

What? Well let me roll up onto the sidewalk and take a look.

Thanks so much!

Downloading and seeding now. I really appreciate it.

Hello again, everyone,

I don't claim to be an excellent photographer. In fact, I explicitly claim to be a rather crappy one! But I figured I'd share my photos with all of you. You can check them out on my flickr if you'd like.

At the time of writing this, Night 1 is fully uploaded, and Night 2 is in the process of being uploaded right now. But check back sometime through the week for more. I'm going to all five shows.

Hope someone can enjoy them, other than me

(oh, and I'll be going back through and captioning them in time, as well)

Dime won't let me sign up. Says they're full

And I'm incapable of deciphering this bt.etree site mentioned. Tried various logical variations of that as a domain with no joy.

Oh well, guess I'll just have to remember it in my own head for now ...unless someone can offer some advice?

Just do what I did.

1) Watch the SBS dvd.

2) Ascertain the name of a certain business shop as seen from the shots from the loft.

3) Google said business and find the address.

4) Drive to that location, look around, and it should be fairly obvious

I don't look at it as stalking. Heck, I traveled all the way to Ireland to stand outside the Windmill Lane studios of U2. Millions of people go and have their pictures taken in front of Abbey Road studios. It's just what fans do.

I had no intention of knocking on the door, or anything like that. Yes, it's true, if I had happened to see any of the band on the street, I would have probably asked to shake a hand or so, but this would be no different than if I met them walking down Clark St. or what have you.

I'm glad I did it. It was fun. I don't think there's anything particularly sinister or creepy about it.

I'm Pete, by the way. This is my first post after, well, years of reading!
