I've never been to a Wilco show where so many people knew the words to the songs. So, maybe it's not just me after all......other people find those lyrics as amazing as I do. I'm very appreciative to the entire band for pouring so much of themselves into the Asheville show. What a performance! I feel as though I shorted them on the price of my ticket: their efforts were worth twice what I paid to witness them. I didn't even have to shell out 500 bucks for a freakin' VIP ticket (my apologies to U2). Don't know if the band ever checks out this forum, but on the off chance they do I'd like to thank them for a great evening. Thanks also to the members of the Asheville audience (at least, the ones I encountered) who politely tolerated my singing and head bobbing throughout the entire show. One of the common threads that runs through every Wilco show I've been to is the downright thoughtfulness of the people who attend them. Guess that's a testament to the band and the music they make. It goes back to what Jeff told the audience at the end of the Asheville show, "You guys take care of each other."
