OK,who´s Anvil? Anvil is a Canadian heavy metal band from the 1980's. I do believe they are still kicking around.

I thought this setlist from the Hamilton Spectator was funny. My favorite was Handshake Drums. LOL http://www.thespec.com/Entertainment/article/727519

Amazing show,Here's the complete setlist, Wilco the Song Bull Black Nova I am Trying to Break your Heart One Wing You Are My Face Company in my Back Shot in the Arm What's the World Got in Store Deeper Down Impossible Germany When the Roses Bloom Again ( my personal favorite of the night) Handshake Drugs You Never Know Jesus Etc Poor Places Reservations Kidssmoke Hummingbird Broken Arrow Via Chicago California Stars Box Full of Letters Hate It Here The Late Greats Walken I'm the Man who Loves You Incredible sound, Jeff was in a great mood, they played for exact

1/. Neil Young 2/. Lynyrd Skynyrd ( Ronnie Van Zant, just amazing) 3/. AC/DC with Bon Scott( he was Rock & Roll) 4/. The Band 5/. CCR 6/.Led Zep 7/. Wilco ( only discovered them at Farm Aid in Chicago.) 8/. Tragically Hip 9/. Blue Rodeo ( sort of the Canadian version of Wilco) In reality Neil is definItely my favourite & the last few years I have been obsessed by Wilco. I am also getting into the Drive- by Truckers also. They are playing a small club in April in T.O. Can't wait!! Really enjoy Grace Potter & the Nocturnals also. Man, can she sing. It really is

As a longtime concertgoer I find the whole sitting /standing a pain in the ass! In the late 70's, early 80's it was never a problem. Everybody stood & partied their asses off!! Oh those were the days! Nowadays with the aged fans & the much tighter security things have changed. Being from polite Canada we have a real sitting problem up here. It drives me nuts. Oh I'm pretty sure I'll be unfortunately sitting in Hamilton. Maybe Wilco should have a standing rule for floors. I.E. Standers take precedent over sitters. I find one of the problems with Wilco they choose these lovely seated

I am thrilled to see they did When the Roses Bloom Again!!! Now I know I have a good shot at seeing it done in Hamilton! My fingers are crossed!!!

I am hoping for When the Roses Bloom Again to be played in Hamilton. It is in the top ten requests right now. I would love it if the fans could come together to vote for this song. I find this song to be one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. From some research I did this song was sung by soldiers around the campfires by both sides during the Civil War. It is just so sad & uplifting at the same time. It's been a long time since Jeff & the boys have played this live. May 2008 in fact. I think it's time to pull this beauty out of the vault. Hopefully this request thru th

Heard One Wing at my local grocery store in Toronto last week. A few months ago I heard Impossible Germany at the same store. I have never heard them on the radio in Canada. I got into them when I went to Farm-Aid in Chicago a few years back. The shame is I missed so many shows they played in T.O. Looking forward to Hamilton next month!!!

You should check out Grace Potter & the Nocturnals. Grace could sing the phonebook & it would sound amazing! They have a late 60's, early 70's classic rock sound & she's not hard hard on the eyes either!! They have sort of patterned themselves after The Band & they just recently played at Levon Helms Midnight Ramble. Check out the songs Nothing but the Water(Boston music awards version is the best) & Big White Gate on YouTube.

Yee Haw, just scored 4th row for Hamilton!!!!!!!!!! Seats right between Nels & Jeff!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!!!

The national post had a interview with John Stirratt & he was talking about starting to work on the next album in the new year. Does not sound like a band about to break up. http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/theampersand/archive/2009/10/13/q-amp-a-john-stirratt-of-wilco.aspx Hope this link works! Cheers

Pumped up, maybe Jim Cuddy could get up for Cali Stars!!! Saw all of the Tragically Hip(except Gordie)at the Neil Young concert in Kingston ON rockin' out. What Local Toronto stars should we be watching for the next 2 nights? Anybody know?

As a fairly new fan I find this thread very interesting. I have only seen Wilco twice & both times it was only for short sets. So I am very excited to be seeing them for the 2 nights in T.O. I think everyone here should be estatic that they are one of the few bands that put out for 2 1/2 hours per night. I am sure the main body of the sets in T.O will be the same but you also know there will be a few surprises each night. I am sure the belly aching would be much worse if they started playing for 1 1/2 hours a night. So bring on Shot on the Arm & Handshake Drugs!!!!

Hello everyone, my first post!!!! I am from Toronto, i have never met a Wilco fan here. I have introduced friends & family to Wilco but I still don't think they get it. My wife is lukewarm to them. I had never heard of them until i went to Farm-aid in Chicago a few years back. A guy i was sitting near was a huge fan of Wilco. ( his wife said he was obsessed). I understand now. They reminded me a bit like a band called Blue Rodeo from the Toronto area. Kinda Alt country with a huge Canadian following. Influenced by The Band(sound familiar) Worth checking out. (recommend t
