The entire set was tremendous. The beach ball prank was glorious and set the mood for the evening. Art of almost was a great song for the prank cuz it gave Jeff time to take it all in and even punch a beach ball. He was smiling as much as us! What a set. The forecaster must have been future casting the set list. Jeff was screaming parts of carried away. Wooohoo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thought the set was great. Some sound problems with Pat and I couldn't hear Mikael too well but it was Super cool! Made some great friends! Had a great time! A train went by right next to Joes field. I believe after I'm always in love. It was right when the song was ending everyone looked over and laughed while Tweedy n the band grinned ear to ear it was special. Nice to meet people! Donna. Beth, Vince Pete John Lisa Colin anyone else I missed... Sleep now big day tomorrow!

No not at all just made me that much more excited! Can't wait to see your noodle!

Just finished my work for the week. HOLY CRAP I'm leaving for Solid Sound in less than 10 hrs! I barely know any of you but I can't wait to see your beautiful unknown faces!!!

As having never been to a SS, the documentary was definitely a great way of informing me and satisfying my quench for visually seeing the space. I thought it could have been better but I have watched it through twice and think it is pretty good. The title Every Other Summer reminds me of the summerteeth lyric "one summer a suicide another autumn a traveler's guide."

I haven't seen any love for Ryley Walker his new record is great! Wonderful way to start Saturday IMO. Bill Frisell, Mac Demarco, Nels, Richard, Parquet! Hope for a lot of interaction with the VC'ers too. Think it will be a great way communicating about hidden gems around town and possibly the festival too. We can all help one another out to have the best possible experience!

Wow I'm overwhelmed by the plethora of awesomeness y'all! I've never been to a SS before so I feel like a kid awaiting the unknown wonders of Disneyland for the first time. Joe's field, isn't there a nice hill you can post up on with a blanket? Is this too far out for an obsessive Wilco fan? Should I plan on arriving pretty early for both Wilco sets?

yes I definitely noticed the facial expressions and body language acting out the song. It pushed it to another level. Some really tall guy slamming PBRs next to me when the band kicked in goes "freaking kamera and they're playing it the cool way!" I gave him a bro fist in my mind

I was planning on mailing in the photo that made the post dispatch for the STL show of my mom sister and I all in different Wilco shirts. Which is also my new avatar!

Hey thats my Mom, sister and I right there! Check out my cool new avatar! I thought the show was killer! I saw them in the fall at the Ryman over two nights which was also stellar but the two shows seemed different than the St. Louis gig. The band seemed to be more on point. Nels was extremely into it lighting the place up. Tweedy looked over during multiple solos which sparked a laugh between him and Stirratt. I couldn't tell if Tweedy was oogling over him shredding or laughing cuz they were stretching out the jams more so than other nights. As Sarah said Kingpin was tightened up,

I was wrong it was the whole band (Tweedy) plus Liam's sister who sang backing vocals on a couple songs. it was 4 songs from Suekierae, a Mavis Staples song, and a Neil Young cover. I went about an hour early and was right in front of the band. I thought it would be a mad house but it looked like half the record store was filled. There was an awesome exclusive poster for the show and Tweedy hung out with Spence and signed whatever. I thought Suekierae was the most appropriate obviously. Tweedy joked around a lot! Talked about how he use to work for Vintage Vinyl and his old boss remind

The in-store is at 2PM. It's a stripped down appearance of Tweedy from what I've heard. There is also an album signing. Just him and Spence. They have been giving out wristbands for the past two days. They're website said they had 50+ left as of yesterday at 1pm, however my gf went around 9pm last night and scored 2. There is also a bad ass poster up for it. It says Tweedy and has a list of song names from Suekierae scattered throughout it. When I went there yesterday morning to get the wristbands there is a window display with pics of him and spence and the entire store has been stocked

I was bummed because I missed this set and it sold out fairly fast now I've seen bids on ebay copies already going for almost 300. There are copies over at Bullmoose.com its 4 dollars off too at 85 dollars and you get free shipping on 25 and over! Also they have copies of Ryley Walkers Primrose Green Vinyl pressed on you guessed it Green Vinyl. Just wanted to make a friendly PSA

I love how Jeff produced this. Minimalistic with enough nuances to make it sound fantastic. Spencer adds some great drumming. Jeff's guitar work is great as well. Nice to hear some straight blues riffs from him!

Thanks for your insight Raspberry Jam! you too hummingbird! I am now even more excited if that is possible!

Should be fun tonight enjoy guys! If there are lots of extras I may head up for 8 and 9!

This will be my first year at SS. Really looking forward to it. Just booked a little motel 3 miles from the grounds. I'm from St. Louis and bypassed the Chicago Winterlude with my sights set on the Moca. When do the fest grounds open and close? So are there venues around town for late night gigs? I thought a major appeal was the fact it is a scaled-down-festival with an intimate setting is it becoming overcrowded or was this just a problem with the smaller stages?

Ya I was in the balcony both nights. I was definitely willing to stand the entire time but It was my first time at the Ryman and I wasn't sure if it was appropriate. The first night people were up and down the entire first set while the second night nearly everyone sat til the encore. Also the crowd around me the first night seemed a lot more intoxicated the first night than the second. Which actually worked considering the setlists and how the nights were presented. So cool either way! Definitely heading back to the Ryman soon! Wish I could for Isbell this weekend y'all enjoy that!

This was a special show. The 1st night was awesome don't get me wrong, but tonight was just so good. I loved it. First time Ryman goer as well. That place is just fantastic. This will be a great tour. 20 Years 20 More! I met Jeff as well! Stood by the bus right before soundcheck like a fan boy. Snapped a pic with him. It was cool and he was smiling! Used my iPad too (JK)

Hey I'm looking for 2 floor tix for tonights show. I have balcony seats as I did last night and would rather be on the floor with the standing crowd let me know if you have something. Feel free to text me 314 799 2419 names Curt. Im going to be around town Thirdman and wherever else people tell me to go. Floor Me with a Kiss of Kidsmoke thanks either way. side with the seeds Curt

I was in the balcony. It seems as if the crowd doesn't know to sit or stand. Tonight should be great. Im in the balcony again tonight Row H too so maybe I'll stand the whole time as well!

Side note. I finally got Cars. 20+ shows hard to believe thats the first time I've heard it live! Chills

Great set. A roadie came out before the show at the gates and said the band was going a straight 3 hrs no set break. I wasn't expecting the lights to kick so early. Hoping for a full 3 hrs tonight either way the Ryman is bliss.

If still available I'm at venue in a black fleece and a maroon country tee

just got in from St Louis. I'm just looking to upgrade from the upper right mezz. Id give you 30 a pop on em and prob miracle my other two mezz seats… let me know if interested. Im at hotel bout to head round the city
