Thank you.

The Edmund Fitzgerald? Are you freaking kidding me? I really, really, really wish I could be at one of these shows. Maybe someone recorded it...

Don't know about the full set on video. NYC Taper has the audio: .http://www.nyctaper.com/2007/10/wilco-february-15-1997-irving-plaza-lossless-download. Owl & Bear has a few options of audio: http://www.owlandbear.com/wilco-archive/.

I most recently bought the Saturday set from Solid Sound and it's terrific. Also would highly recommend the Red Rocks show and the Terminal 5 show in NYC.

Fascinating stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Full set:

Listening to Saturday's set and Jeff's banter about Foxygen, I remember reading some posts that the most of the band, particularly the singer, had boozed it up quite a bit, which makes it so much funnier that Tweedy dedicated "Passenger Side" to them right before they played it.

The only reason I'm on the fence about picking up the Saturday set is that I've already got most of those songs from previous Roadcase purchases. But what a setlist. SEVEN tracks from Summerteeth? At My Window Sad and Lonely? Oh, hell.

The "In a Future Age" thread is a good place to look for this type of stuff. http://viachicago.org/forum/29-in-a-future-age/

I'd like to say the same for "Shake It Off." Lyrics = good, music = bad.

The best Wilco record hasn't even come out yet.

I have plenty of beer left over from a backyard party. Here, have one. *pksh*

I want to hear one of these shows very, very badly. All of the sets.

It's a most excellent Star Wars reference at that. Empire, actually. The force is strong with this one.

I can only imagine. You lucky, lucky guy.

I love avocados. Just add a little salt and you're set.

SPlendid. Just splendid.

For breakfast today I had a chocolate granola bar and a cold piece of pizza.

I think you mean Anthony Kiedis.

Hey that's a smile!

I haven't heard that either. I know he's not the most exciting guy, but five words? "Hey New York," and "thanks guys," were all he had to say to the audience.
