I was at this show. I'll have to buy it. They keep getting my money by putting out shows I was at! I bought the May '77 box mostly because I was at the St. Louis show, I'm very glad I bought it. Just don't remind me how much it cost.

I agree with everything Nels says about the way TWL came out. I'm sure he'll be relieved to know that.

I'm not seeing any of these shows, will be out of town when it hits Great Woods, but I'm really hoping to be reading about a Richard Thompson-Wilco collaboration. The Nels-Richard fireworks would be something to behold. Was Richard playing electric with his trio?

Ok, but what explains why still nothing posted tonight yet?

And after all that getting the 2 audience sources and trying to figure out which one, both nights drop into the Roadcase today and they sound fantastic!

Nyctaper did a nice job with the Friday show, but the Roadcase versions kick ass! Only listened to a couple of tracks from each night while setting them up, they sound great. Don't hesitate.

I was surprised that Hidden Track had not done a comprehensive review, and here it is posted today: http://www.glidemagazine.com/hiddentrack/review-and-photos-wilcos-solid-sound-festival/

Trying to figure out what he meant by that. I think he must have been referring to the back into DS after CS? I thought I read somewhere that Nels sang. I listened to this, sounded to me that Bobby was singing DS.

Wilco's Atlanta set now up on bt.etree.

That's a great photo. Totally blows me away just to see a picture of Weir up on stage with Wilco. A convergence of my musical obsessions I never imagined to see.

Dark Star > Cali Stars > Dark Star. With Nels playing Duane's Goldtop. Doubly loss for words. Wilco playing Dark Star. Who would have ever thunk it? And based on that c lip, totally nailing the Dark Star. Wowsa.

Wilco certainly nails that transition back into Dark Star. sounds eerily like the Dead. Wilco is amazing.

And to add to the DS mind melt, Nels was again playing Duane's '57 Goldtop. Damn, please let there be a recording of this somewhere.

Awesome! Dead Flowers! One of my all time faves. Wilco nailed it at SS. Would be so happy to see this stay in the rotation for a while.

I can only imagine the fireworks between Richard Thompson and Nels if he sits in with Wilco for some songs. Damn, I'm missing the Great Woods show.

A hysterical take on Don't Fear the Reaper and the cowbell from SNL. Wilco's cowbell guy had all the right moves. http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/719364/

That is great news, Brennan's Friday recording is excellent! Can't wait to wrap my ears around Saturday night again at full volume.

I can't imagine anyone but Richard Thompson playing that song. Whenever I see him or listen to a show, it's always "does he have to do that song again" and then he does it and my jaw always drops. Much like Impossible Germany. I'll have to check this out.

His Friday videos are pretty good, definitely worth checking out, I think i've seen them all. He only has snippets for some tunes though (Cinnamon Girl comes to mind)

What Richard Thompson song did Mark Mulcahy play? You're familiar with Sentimental Lady from a mix tape, try to get to listen to all of Bare Trees. Pre-Buckingham and Nicks Fleetwood Mac, one of the big albums among my friends in jr. h.s. and h.s. I've listened to it recently, still fantastic.

+1 on that, been listening to the stream at work, sounds great. I chatted with the guy with the rig on the field, about 15-20 feet in front of the soundboard. He recorded both Wilco sets and said it would be a couple of weeks before his friend gets the recordings up.

Is there a full show You Tube playlist put together? It's probably easy to do, but I've never done one and don't know how.

I caught everyone but Reggie Watts, who my wife saw and didn't like too much. I was already a big fan of Jen Kirkman from Chelsea Lately (plus she's from Needham where we live) and Al Madrigal, and both their sets were hysterical. John Hodgman emceed, and he was not that funny. So for me, the comedy cabaret was all about Jen and Al.

It's the Wilco telephone "It's for you" shirt. I imagine you've seen it.

The Btree source is definitely brighter sounding. Hardly any unwanted crowd noise, just enough to catch the energy. A very Solid recording.
