  1. Apparently they're gone now, but there were a few really really good front balcony seats available mid day on friday. Also, by the box office I mean go to the actual theater. They have some that aren't sold online. Boxes at the back of the orchestra

  2. Hey guys,

    Its my recording, and I know what you're talking about! It was a guy directly in front of me that honestly seemed like he intended on recounting his ENTIRE F*$KING LIFE to the guy next to him. Needles to say it pissed me off (seemed to make the guy on the recieving end a little angry too). Other than that guy I hope you guys like the recording.

    My first Umphrey's show. Had no idea what to expect. Left addicted.

  5. Shit. Having seen 8 or 9 shows...sound-wise, this was the very worst ever...I was so bummed, I thought the sound TOTALLY SUCKED!!! I kept moving around, lawn, shed, left. right...nothing helped. I asked the sound tech what he thought..he said "I'm really struggling here...", so I knew it wasn't just me. I finally gave up and just danced, but seriously....I thought this as the absolute worst sound EVER!! Is there anyone out there agrees with me?

     

    Can't wait to hear them in a good venue again. loved the Nudie Suits. Missed Jeff's banter and his way of connecting. Missed the audience participation.

     

    Loved: the sky blue sky of the day, the scene, bringing my 15 year old son who is now not only a Wilco fan but who discovered Radiohead's In Rainbow's on my iPod and couldn't stop listening...we were so bummed we didn't have tix for their show the next night.

    I've been to my fare share of concerts, and the sound was great to my ears, other than Nels being a bit quiet.

    You want bad sound, go to the Webster in Hartford

  6. Hi all, I'm new here, and pretty new to Wilco in general.

    I just got back from the show tonight, it was my first Wilco show, and I'm am Blown Away!

    Andrew Bird's set was nice, his looping was very cool, but started to get old for me about 45 minutes into it.

    Then, when Wilco came out, my friend and I jumped over the barrier of the lawn, and quickly made our way up, passed a few guards and into row M in the front section on the right. It was an amazing night, you could feel the energy, and I was getting goose pumps non-stop, which never happens to me at concerts anymore!

    Jeff seemed to be in a great mood, commenting on the one piece of graffiti in the bathroom, that said "music is gay" :lol

    The suits were very cool, and everybody seemed to be on fire!

    The second encore was deffinetly the part that stood out the most. We moved up to row F right in front of Pat. He went completely hardcore rock star for the whole second encore, doing what seemed like ever pete townshend move in the book.

    Amazing evening. I am now hooked.

    Thank you Wilco
