For those of us who will be seeing Nick Lowe opening on this tour, and for anyone else generally interested in what Nick's up to these days, nice piece on him in today's NY Times: \ http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/14/arts/music/nick-lowe-back-with-a-new-album-that-old-magic.html?_r=1&ref=music

How did Art of Almost sound live?

Rockpile was one my faves back in the day.

Nope, not tonight apparently.

Indy

Encore break by 10:50, 16 songs played pre-encore.

Add Dawned on Me. Love that song.

Set backdrop is the same as Friday night of Solid Sound based on twitter photos

Add BBN, In a Future Age, IATTBYH, Handshake, War on War, Born Alone, Germany, to the setlist

Art of Almost to open the tour! Love it. That song has opener written all over it.

Show starts at 8:00, with Nick Lowe opening. Show ends at 11:00. Doesn't leave enough time for Wilco. A less than 2 hour set. Damn.

Having these lines without reference to the specific song is like a treasure hunt.

I don't mind the tweeters. They don't interfere with my space. What I do mind is the cell phone picture/video takers. This summer at MMJ, I stood behind a guy who held his phone up in the air for good portions of the show taking video. I found myself watching the band through the 4 inches of his screen. Ugh! Now cut that out. If someone wants to tweet the setlist in real time, I have no problem with that. I see that others here don't get it, but I've often followed a live action setlist for shows I'm not at. My wife doesn't get it either, but I think its kind of fun.

Jacob Wirth is a good choice. Close by, huge beer menu, good food, etc. Here's a question: with the will call only ticket policy for everyone, how bad of a clusterf*&$ do you think it will be getting into the Wang? I'm expecting it to be fairly brutal. I don't care if I'm in my seat for Nick Lowe though.

Many many years of seeing live music, and I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a show! Saturday night my wife and I came home from seeing Lewis Black listening to the new album in the car, and found ourselves dancing in the kitchen at midnight to Whole Love being so psyched for next Tuesday.

That line gets to me too, every time. About 20 years ago my brother suddenly died. I was the one who had to tell my Mom and Dad. That line, and the whole mood of this song, definitely tugs at the heartstrings.

Did someone post a tab to this? I thought I saw a mention of a tab for this song, but now I can't find it.

Love Sky Blue Sky. And I've been listening to Wilco since Being There was issued.

Me too. Every time I hear it. And I listen to it several times a day.

What song is that from?

Ditto that for me.

Really? Nels gets a bad rap? I just can't imagine, the man is a guitar god of the highest order.

Great, the day before the Boston show!

Nice. One of my favorite ways to spend time between music at Solid Sound was to peruse the Wilco poster collection they installed at Mass Moca. Which I think is now a permanent installation.
