I think that perhaps there should be a little announcement pre-set "suggesting" that people to pack up their little set-ups, ie chairs and especially blankets, if they are situated, say, anywhere from the soundboard up to front of stage. Just for the sake of everyone involved...Yes, people that suddenly make a push for the front can be a little annoying, but hey, this is a general admission rock show. That's what happens. More annoying are the huge blankets that take up so much valuable space. Again - this isn't a bluegrass fest- this is a rock show... People talking too much? i can't even b

thanks...and yes - I won't write her off completely, and i do recognize she's a talent for sure...i heard a little of Middle Cyclone actually a couple years ago, and it was good.

THIS...i was trying to be as PC about it as possible, but i like your directness ....i just find lots of alt country-ish or americana stuff sort of boring, so that's just me. And yeah - the Xu Bing installation was incredible.

Sunday was super chill, but my wife and i really enjoyed it. Bloody Marys, no rush, less folks.....guess also because we used the time to really explore the museum and such, see The Loft, and just stroll around without any anticipation of "where to position for wilco set.." Plus, any day that has Autumn Defense is cool for me. Love that stuff especially for a sunday. Mind you, we left early too, essentially right after AD. Neko Case...cool lady, obviously talented. Just not my really my thing - kinda middle road for me. Guess i'd rather have more weird stuff (Foxygen!) or psych rock stuff (w

ah, cool...pretty funny either way.

I was next to the foxygen guy getting dragged out through the museum lobby by the frontman and security....he was wasted..ahh, rock and roll. So i tend to believe Tweedy. I really enjoyed their set - i saw them a few months ago open for Unknown Mortal Orchestra in Boston, before i knew who they were, and was "whoa, these guys are a trip. Who the fuck are they?" Definitely wakes you up on a sleepy, hot, humid, lazy saturday... i need to think more about my whole experience....missed friday night, so maybe i don't have the complete picture. Really good time though, as expected. The sat nig

Hoping to snag two saturday only solidsound tix. probably a tough get, but would be really happy if anyone happens to need to unload. tuckerwalsh@gmail.com

i don't post much here, but need to stop by and give some love to (The Album). I wasn't overly excited at first by the record, but over the last couple of years i've come to realize (for me), that "One Wing", "Deeper Down," "Bull Black Nova," and "Solitaire" are 4 of the best/prettiest songs on any record. Not sure why it took me a bit to realize it (well, i did love "Nova" from the get go, as it punches you hard right out of the gate). But yeah, there is definitely love from me for (The Album). I am probably way off, but i kinda thought that "One Wing" had become sort of a set list stapl

wow. i'm seeing Wilco at a brewery in Cooperstown. My first visit to the BHOF. i was planning a possible summer visit anyway. Now this happens. Life works good sometimes. Very tough choice - Newport or Cooperstown....love the bill at Newport, and gorgeous site....downside is expense of course. Gonna go with the low cost camp option. But yeah, can't really go wrong either way. Days past, id have gone to both - but....those are days past...

yikes....i have completely forgotten then. I'll chalk it up to the material being so new then, and not early onset old age.

that right there is key - Pat's Dungen shirt. somehow it makes me feel good when i see a member of a favorite band rock the t shirt of another of my favorite bands. It also let's me know the band is in good hands, especially with Pat more at the production helm. I love the rootsier, alt country side and all that, but if Pat is at all influenced by Dungens gloriously melodic jazz/rock psychedelic explorations, then you know Wilco shall continue to explore the universe. It reminds me of when Pat said he wanted the new record to be more of a headphone record. Re: the title track played here.

"Also, think of it this way: the next time they come to New England, they probably won't play half of those songs from TWL." wow...for some reason didn't really consider that, but yes, it's obvious - they'll not do as many of them next time, for sure. I wish I'd been thinking of that during the show, to truly appreciate. I really did dig them all last night, and they translate so well live. Sound overall was pretty stellar - dead center, Orch, row T (if i remember correctly). Had two (dudes!) talkers in front of us, which was driving me crazy...but - great show. tough when the last one the

sorry to start a thread on something sort of lame and probably easily answerable, but I've not been 'round here that long....I've seen Wilco live about 7 (or 8?) times, and never seen a "Pieholden Suite" (what does one look like anyway?)...I gather it's not played a ton, right? is it fairly regular and i've just not seen it, or is it indeed essentially rare? thanks. I'm dyin' to see it

I think you're right....thx. Yes, the lighting/set design was amazing at Solid Sound. Especially night one, with the ghost-like figures hanging. Really trippy.

In over 35 years of seeing live music that was a top 5 show for me. "An Evening With." Can't be beat, wish they were doing that again. wow! I agree (been seeing live music for like 25 years. It is easy top 10, if not 5. that was a great night. I will say, if that's a top 5, night 2 at Solid Sound is like only a couple slots below that. That was pretty magical for me. ok now...orch far left row M, or orch center row X....grrrr...what to do....
