Infinite Jest

Jealous of you for getting Magazine and Shouldn't Be Ashamed (which I had requested for Stuttgart ), and especially When You Wake Up Feeling Old...

Here's the setlist from the official site. Looks correct to me. I saw a printed setlist, and it had I'm A Wheel listed after Hoodoo Voodoo. I felt that the gig got better as the night went on. Early on, it seemed a bit....mechanical, I guess. Like I was watching Wilco rehearsing, or doing a TV filming without an audience. It felt like the band maybe weren't totally into it, other than Nels who was thrashing around on his guitar like normal. It definitely improved though, and by the end everyone seemed to be having a good time and the crowd were much more into it. Not much stage banter. Af

Dawned On Me. Hummingbird into Shot In The Arm

I'm sure she's a very nice person, but I'd really rather listen to Jeff talking to the crowd.

Weird, I was just copying and pasting that exact same list There's a bunch of other videos on Youtube. Jeff also sang on Kizza Me and Blue Moon. The way they handled the guests was great. They didn't announce them or anything. Just at the end 'Jeff Tweedy on vocals'. Not making a big deal out of who they were. A lot of people recognised Jeff and some of the others, of course.

This rates as one of my favourite Wilco shows, mainly for the exceptional crowd response. Set: 01 - Poor Places 02 - Art of Almost 03 - I Might 04 - At Least That's What You Said 05 - Spiders (acoustic) 06 - Impossible Germany 07 - Born Alone 08 - Laminated Cat 09 - How to Fight Loneliness 10 - Whole Love 11 - Too Far Apart 12 - I'm Always In Love 13 - Jesus, Etc. 14 - I'm the Man Who Loves You 15 - Dawned On Me 16 - Shot in the Arm Not a lot of banter. Jeff mentioned that HtFL was a request. After Impossible Germany when everyone was applauding Nels, Jeff introduced him

At Primavera Sound in Barcelona a few days ago they played How to Fight Loneliness, which Jeff said was a request. At a show in London I requested Laminated Cat and they played it (but maybe a coincidence?). When Jeff played London solo most of the set was requests, taken by his wife and children going round the audience before the show. I don't know if that's common practice for his solo shows?

I have one spare standing for this show. Can't use as I'm out of the country. Ticket is in hand, my girlfriend can meet you in London (ideally central) this week, or probably before the show.

I have one, if Preferred B's is unavailable for any reason.

Bump

I have one ticket for each of the London shows (tickets not yet in hand). I'm unable to attend as I'll be out of the country. Total cost was £37.10 each, including all fees. Will accept reasonable offers. email: infinitejest@gmail.com (As I'm a newbie here, check my Songkick and last.fm profiles if you want to see that I'm a genuine Wilco fan ).

I was ecstatic by the time they'd played '...Loneliness', 'Someday...' and Laminated Cat. And then they just kept playing the classics. It was wonderful. A perfect companion set to the End of the Road show two days earlier, very little overlap. They played my website request (Laminated Cat) and I also begged them to mix the set up a bit, so whether they were listening to me or not, it was great to see. The sound was great, as bbop said. I don't like seeing Wilco in seated venues, but after hearing that show, I can understand the advantages of playing there. Jeff seemed in a very good mood. S

A good festival show, with a great crowd reaction. End of the Road is a small (5000 or so) capacity festival that has been running for five years near Salisbury (about two hours south of London). It features a mix of pure folk, Americana, indie-pop/rock and post-rock (Along with Wilco, other headliners were Modest Mouse and Yo La Tengo on the main stage, and Caribou and New Pornographers on the second stage). I highly recommended it. Wilco followed an energetic set from the Felice Brothers, and a reverentially hushed, well-received set from the Low Anthem. With an hour between TLA and Wil

Thanks for that, will have to look through these over the next few days. Wasn't my favourite ever Wilco show, but was still fun (and the first time I've heard Misunderstood live, which was nice )

I'm afraid not . I'm only really familiar with Dylan's 60s stuff, and even though I've been listening to Wilco for 10 years, I haven't really listened to Uncle Tupelo or Loose Fur. Oh, you were the planner (or something like that)? I was second row on the left, behind the student guy that he wanted to support him when he crowd-surfed. I managed to sneak out before he talked to me... Likewise, and I agree it was wonderful: Union Chapel tends to get good crowds who know and respect the music/ians. I've seen some great shows there. Nice to see Sue and the boys taking requests, but I wis
