    There is conflicting information.

    WilcoWorld lists Wilco hitting the stage @9pm. 
    Bank of NH lists Wilco hitting the stage @8:30pm. 
     

    I haven’t seen a show on this tour, but I’ve noticed the earliest that I’ve seen pics & setlist info up on the FB group has been around 10:30ish/10:45ish for the East Coast shows. But yeah, I’d say they’ve been probably playing shows clocking in at 2 hours. WilcoWorld has been a great resource  for set times, etc. 

     

    here is the evidence…lol

    I had the same discussion with a friend of mine last week.  My top 3 are:

     

    Can't You Hear Me Knocking

    Monkey Man

    Sympathy For The Devil

    Re :Can't You Hear Me Knocking\

    Heard Warren Haynes do a nice cover of this in Boston 2 weeks ago.

    Jason Isbel. Covered it in an Encore last week as well.

    Nice homage to Charlie Watts. 

    The song does have a great groove,

  3. Some thoughts on the show.

    i have seen the babd spread out over 4 states in the last two decades.

    This show is in my top 3 out of 22 shows

     

    i would have to harken back to an Evening With Wilco to say those are my other 2 

     

    the show took off like a rocket. The band was tight as usual although lose in terms of mood.

     

    The pacing was great as was JT mood hell he even smiled … twice !!

     

    Great tribute to Charlie Watts and well played I might add. 
     

    Chargrilled that this is it until next year but still smiling at the memory of an outstanding performance. 

  4. Something fun, perhaps swap some song / stories around them.

    1) Midnight Rambler - Being from Boston and just a kid of 12 when it came out I started to like it, and purchased My first Stones Album; Get Yer Yah Yahs Out
    2) Brown Sugar after completing Walk For Hunger walk at 13, I  arrived on the Boston Common to hear opening chords of Brown Sugar was being played live by a local band .
    It stuck with me.
    3) Honky Tonk Women - Always a fun one when The Stones do it live. It was the first song I sang with my buddies cover band.
     
    What's Some of Yours and Why..?
  5. Tomorrow's Drive-By Truckers show in Chicago was just cancelled.  Damn, I guess I'll just watch college basketball instead. Wait  . . .

    As someone posted in a Drive By Truckers FB thread about cancellations in general..

    There is going to be a lot of babies next winter.. 

    Hope it gets rescheduled for you. Just saw them last month. As potent as ever,I  love the last three records.

  6. Yes. Loud. I'm certain I attended louder concerts in my youth, but it was easily the loudest show I've attended in at least 20 years.

     

    Tyler Childers was excellent. He had 75 minutes and made the most of it, keeping the banter to a minimum and playing 16 songs. Loved him. Definitely want to see him headline so he can slow it down a bit, plus play a few more. Fantastic band.

     

    Sturgill played all of Sound & Fury, then 12 more, mostly from Metamodern... and A Sailors.... He did play Some Days from Hightop Mountain, plus 3 choice covers. He was into putting on a show. I knew he could play guitar, but, live it's clear he's top drawer. He had an excellent band just keys, bass and drums. He was in fine voice and the emotion came through. They all wore orange "Nudie"-style suits, but definitely brought the rock. I was glad he played Sound & Fury in order, a few shows he's mixed them up. I was concerned that a big portion of the crowd might not be into it, but all in all, the sold out arena crowd was appreciative. After a blow the roof off, SNL version good, Call To Arms, the show was over. No encore. I found it appropriate.

     

    2 excellent voices made for a great night of music. It was definitely worth the drive from Tampa to the Atlanta area.

     

    The only downside was not unexpected at a Sturgill/Tyler show, some in the crowd were not my type of folks, which rolled off my back, except one instance. The bathroom had a very long line. Invariably, someone made a crack about the coronavirus. Then a guy 3 people behind me in line replied, "Keep away from the Asians". Before I could stop, I loudly said, "What the fuck?", looked at him and shook my head. Incredibly enough, that was the end of it. No one said anything more.

     

    Thanks for asking and enjoy the Boston show.

    Awesome review .. 

    Re ; The encore I am now recalling the very last time I saw him no encore as well. Eric Church started to keep a long main set a few yrs back and announced that he did not want to run off and run back out.. He's rather leave it all out here. I get it .. Im fine with the bands either way..

    hmm either way brings up Wilco .. thats how my mind works - got tkts for the Boston show today.. Man the holdbacks and the bots got the great seats..

    Too bad Wilco does not do what Sturgil did that was a pre qualification thing..

    Before I go tip O' the cap for audience policing more should step up and change the direction of stupidity.

  7. Sturgill Simpson with Tyler Childers opening. Damn, are we excited!

    How was it .. ?

    We are waiting until May in Boston.

    Im sure he played loud and quite good,,

    Have yet to ck setlist wondered about your thoughts on show.

  8. Boston Pre was fair got in @10:00 had to wait 3 minutes in Que and first 15 rows in center ..Gone

    No GA 

    Sides were WC in 1st 10 rows.

    But we have a summertime show in the city and overall I am grateful.

  9. Really a 180 from last night in so many ways ..

    Jeff was more involved with banter tonight

    I.e. repeatedly commenting on the size of lite beers then moving into burning the same folk that were drinking lite large beers and texting.

    We are playing not for you but with you!

    Another comment later “ Get a real Beer “

    Moreover and more importantly it was to me a better range of the band both setlist wise, and Band Wise

    Hell,we even got a banjo plucked by Pat.

    This was a better, louder ( at the appropriate spots)

    overall, crowd than last nite and the band knew it.

     

    It will be another few years before the band plays Boston proper again ..

    As always Grateful ...
