The Mobile, AL show was also filmed. There were at least 3 cameras in the pit area and at least one more in the balcony, those are the ones I saw anyways.

This is a review from the local paper, the Mobile Press-Register: "To judge from Wilco's appearance at the Mobile Civic Center Theatre on Monday evening, rock music does have a future. And it will be loud. That may be an oversimplification. But Wilco did prove a couple of significant points. The first is that a band known more for wowing critics than for winning over a lucrative mainstream following can draw a respectable crowd in Mobile on a stormy weeknight. Word from the Civic Center was that about 1,600 patrons had turned out -- some 300 short of a sellout, but nothing to sneeze at.

Capacity was 1900 (or so). I read this morning they were 300 short of a sell-out. You really couldn't tell this was the case though. The balcony may have been less than full, but the floor level was very near capacity. I was surprised, Mobile very, very rarely gets decent shows. The majority of shows here are crap rock (Nickelback and their ilk). The last decent show was Ryan Adams at the Saenger Theater, and that turned out horribly.

This was a great show. Just got in. The band must have played nearly 2 1/2 hours. I'm sure someone else will post a setlist later. Mobile is notorious for lack of enthusiasm for shows and sometimes rowdy crowds. Tonight could not have been further from that. The crowd was great, a good portion of the audience stood for most of the show and were very enthused for the entire catalogue spanning setlist that was played. It sounds cliche, but the band was on fire. Nels performed one of his greatest solos yet for Impossible Germany (standing ovation). The banter was at a minimum, but the band m

Anybody going to this show? We've got tickets to Section E. I don't think they are gonna be that great location wise, but we're getting to see Wilco in our back yard, so I couldn't pass that up.
