Just caught this on my local NPR station, luckily. I guess they don't archive the interviews, so you'll have to catch it on the radio or Sirius/XM. It was about a half hour long and they talked about a lot of the things that have been covered in previous recent interviews, but it's always good to hear Tweedy talk, in my opinion!

My husband and I will be there both nights.... Can't wait!!!! Thanks for the tip, leatherman, about getting our tickets from will call early! That makes things easier. See you all there!

Not only have they been blocked, but it's by Warner when Wilco is under EMI now. Hmmm...

What's that about??? How can they do that?

Woo woo! can't wait!

Anyone need a place to stay for Solid Sound? I have another lodging opportunity and am hoping someone will take the room I have reserved at the Williamstown Motel. PM me for details.

We have a room at the Williamstown Motel for Friday night through Sunday night that we don't think we'll need as another lodging opportunity just arrived. If anyone's interested, contact me ASAP.

Awesome! Thanks Sarah!

both...

I can't see these pictures and the links to them don't seem to work - what am I missing??

Some thoughts:

This was my 5th Wilco show and probably the best - or maybe a tie with the show they played last April in my hometown of Athens, OH where we sat in the 3rd row pit center. My husband and I were in the 4th row pit next to the obnoxious drunk guy this time. (I kinda wished they hadn't let his friend back in and that he would have left too! Sorry obnoxious drunk guy if you read this forum!) Sound was great in the pit, and I thought the set list was totally awesome. I love-love-loved the acoustic stuff - I have been hoping they would do something like this for a while. So happy I got to see Laminated Cat live! And Spiders like that was awesome - I loved it. We went to the Savannah show the night before, which was an excellent performance, but not as incredible of an experience since we could only get balcony seats. There were so many talkers at the Savannah show... (Why don't people just shut up and listen??) Atlanta in the pit was definitely more satisfying - all singers, very few talkers. Also happy to see lots of people STANDING at the Atlanta show - I was asked to sit down by someone a few rows behind us in Savannah which was pretty annoying!

I'm A Wheel was fantastic, as was Poor Places, Casino Queen, Via Chicago, Wishful Thinking... and everything else! Loved when Glenn stood up before I'm the Man Who Loves You (only caught the last word he said - thanks for translating, Sarah!)

I was happy to finally be in a crowd that Jeff thought did good on Jesus, Etc. All the other shows I've been to he was never that satisfied with us. The last show in Columbus, OH we saw he seemed kinda not that into being there (he had thrown up off stage at the beginning I think), so it was great to see him smiling and in good spirits in both Savannah and ATL.

Can't wait to see them again someday soon!
