Got a pair for night #1 at the Ryman. Sec 1, Row P. I'm not stoked about my tickets either night, but maybe I'm just being greedy. Either way, it's time to book airfare/ hotel!

Ha! That was quite an experience-- I wouldn't have had it any other way! Are you guys making the trip up to Boston? I think we're only doing Boston and Nashville. I'm very excited. I'm sure I'll be seeing you! T

that's exactly where i'm sitting for the 2nd night. they aren't far back, but the angle kinda stinks. might try and find other seats...

Are you guys using this link for the Wang? I just pulled up 17th row but passed: http://www.broadwayoffers.com/go.aspx?MD=2001&PID=1808&MC=WL2011MP&AID=V Also.... If there's any word on a Ryman presale, please let me know!

Got tickets for the 2nd night at the Ryman. Sec- Presale 1, row J.

Boston, Pit 4 on the aisle. Trying for Nashville in an hour!

Aren't the shows usually listed on frontgate by now? I feel like this presale is going to be tougher than usual...

it was my first time trying something like this, but i recorded it and cut it into 20 tracks. am i allowed to share?

thinking of flying from boston to nashville to see the two at the ryman. i'll have to see how the presale goes!

I also stayed at the Williamstown Motel. The communication between the owner and I before our stay was very strange. I think he was worried that we weren't going to show up (and he also realized he could make more $$ b/c of the high demand). Regardless, he was very kind when we arrived and the room was just fine. My father and I had a great time again this year. I want to say thanks to the many people near us on Saturday (up front, centerish) that not only made the rain tolerable, but turned the whole ordeal into a really entertaining/ pleasant experience. I'm really not a festival person, b

the track that jeff was playing solo, 'born to die alone', sounds soooooooo good with the full band. i never thought that that quiet acoustic number could become something so.... so wilco. it's great. and i think there were 3 new ones.... i might, whole love, and born to die alone.

i think we heard the title track tonight at solid sound. good, but i don't think it's the strongest of the new ones.

wilco tweet: "is rehearsing new material at an undisclosed location in Western New England today."

tickets go on sale this morning for a show in northhampton, ma. http://www.academyofmusictheatre.com/home/ good luck!

So.... Joe's field opens when the venue opens. I've got mixed feelings about this. It seems crazy to sit there all day, and unfair to put a chair down to reserve a spot. Speaking hypothetically... is it fair to assume that people won't congregate until the usual 1-2hrs before showtime? What is nice is that there won't be that mad dash to the front. That was dangerous last year.

maybe i'm a bit slow here, but who are you referring to? i'm not noticing any updates. (maybe because i'm desperately looking for 'jeff tweedy')

i hope it doesn't. there was nothing melodic about it.

I'll do my best to answer a few of your questions: You'll receive a bracelet, and the bracelet allows you to come and go as your please. They check bracelets on your way into Mass MoCa and also when you leave the museum lobby to go toward the outside area where the stages are. The Wilco shows are on the field. That line starts to form relatively early, but it seemed to me that once you got near the soundboard and further back it was more spacious. I'm not sure I'd leave a lot of belongings, but I'd probably feel comfortable leaving a chair or a blanket there. Last year I think Magic Hat

i'll be at ssf, but ordered the blue 7" regardless. why not, right?

npr has the show available for download as a single mp3 track: http://www.npr.org/2011/05/31/136580866/sasquatch-2011-wilco-live-in-concert

"you look like a bunch of sick bastards that would celebrate the apocalypse" -jt

Someone told me that they supposedly heard a new single on some local college radio station. Apparently the dj introduced it as a "new Wilco song". The person who relayed the message to me isn't a big wilco fan, so she wouldn't really be able to differentiate a new single from a WTA track. Has anyone else heard anything???

too much standing at stadium shows.
