"And the crowd goes mild..." - JT

If at all possible, I think I love Jeff even more after listening to this.

Man, The Sinclair is such a great little venue. I'd love to see Jeff there-- though I think it's probably a little too small.

They have been really inconsistent with their communication with me for the past two months or so. We stayed there last year and it was great; I was hoping to return this year, but I'm really not sure what's going on.

I was referring to years previous--- sorry if that was unclear. I suppose the point I was trying to make is that SSF doesn't feature any band, aside from Wilco, that I actively seek out. maybe this year will be different... regardless, i'm totally stoked for 2 nights of wilco.

easy now, big guy. i never said the acts weren't any good... my point was that most of the bands on the bill are bands i've never heard of, and the ones i am familiar with, i'm not all that interested in seeing. & you're right the "wildly popular, completely shit act" i could go see is my favorite band, wilco.

I predict: A bunch of bands I've never heard of/ aren't interested in seeing.

2 tickets purchased! here's to hoping we get some lineup announcements in the near future!

10 am via Front Gate?

Does anyone have any info regarding the preferred seating vs GA tickets? Preferred is sold out, and I'm wondering what spots are available for GA ticket holders. The site says that preferred holders get early entry to an area adjacent to the stage. I'd rather be in front of the stage vs adjacent to it... I'm thinking of flying to CO for this, but am hesitant if it means getting a lousy spot. Thanks!

wow. i'm not looking to instigate the nels vs jay debate, but i will say that wilco are at their best with this sort of playing.

I want to add: I really hope some of the video that was recorded eventually surfaces!

Last night was exactly what I hoped it would be. I was against the rail, between John and Pat's mic, and couldn't have been happier. I thought the latter part of the setlist was a bit more exciting and was particularly excited for "Wishful Thinking." Having only seen the Newport show on this leg of the tour, the band seemed way more excited. See you all at SSF3.

I've tried watching The Royal Tenenbaums on multiple occasions, and have never made it all the way through. I started The Darjeeling Limited and made it halfway through. I went to see Moonrise Kingdom in the theatre and think that it was one of the best movies I've seen in a very, very long time. Is this because MK is an atypical Wes Anderson movie? Which WA movie should I try next?

does anyone have a guess to how hectic the parking is going to be? it's my hope to get there around 2pm. can't wait!

I have two tickets, side-by-side, in Orchestra C, row J. Looking for face value, or best offer. I've sold and purchased tickets on Via Chicago in the past! If buyer is interested, I could sell tickets in person at either MoCa or Newport, RI show. Please PM if you're interested.

I just called and paid via credit card. the woman who answered was very nice, and explained that they have been swamped today. She also said that she wasn't sure if we would be getting "personalized" confirmation emails, a generic email for all of those who purchased, or no email at all. Either way, I'm in for 2 tickets for MoCa, Newport, and Hartford, and I can't wait! Edit: I was also told that they aren't shipping tickets--- we just need to bring a photo ID and we will get a wristband.

yep: "Congrats! While your bid was not among the high bidders, your bid was selected in our Wilco ticket lottery, which enables you to purchase the number of tickets you requested to MASS MoCA’s benefit concert by Wilco..."

wasn't a high bidder, but won a ticket via the lottery. i'm pretty stoked! that should be a great space for them.

ahh, i see. well congrats to you! that's probably cheaper than the whole bidding route, and you're still supporting MoCa with the cost of the ticket and membership.

how is that possible?

2 for RI, and 2 in J for Hartford. hoping to get lucky for MoCa as well...

in a fit of excitement i became illiterate. thanks. feeling better now.

that picture is beautiful. i think i'll be going to ny for that one!
