I sought the advice of my wise and knowing audiophile buddy . Here's what he came back with. I may need to take this up with Kung Fu: "Looks like the colored vinyl was done at Independent Record Pressing in NJ, the black vinyl at QRP in Kansas. QRP is an awesome shop. Might have to go black on this one. Lots of complaints on the orange wax, a number of people say their pinks are perfect, we’ll see. http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/wilco-schmilco-new-lp-2016.567432/page-11

It's September 13...tick tock on the announcement. C'mon Tony!

My orange vinyl is noticeably noisy and hissy. I'm pretty sure it's not my stylus/cartridge, but I haven't had a chance yet to spin anything else to compare.

Given it only 2 good listens so far, once under some good headphones. My response to the music is still developing, but I can't deny that so far I was hoping for more of the "fucked-up country' sound. Whatever that is I don't know, but there's nothing "country" about this to me. Absent that, I'm missing some good old Wilco rock songs. Hard for me to fathom these tunes were recorded at the same sessions as Star Wars. Seems like night and day to me. Are a lot of songs I connected with immediately, including the 3 that were pre-released and We Aren't the World (Safety Girl). In a blind listen

You must not have been standing with us when that electrified guy with the eyeballs rolling out of his head sidled up to us with a pipe filled with some psychedelic white powder

I was there Wednesday, the night before (Jeff really ragged about the crowd). You may recall that the next night after Wilco's 3 night run, Phil Lesh was coming in for a series of shows. I always took Wilco's decision to close their run with Ripple as a sort of tribute and "hand-off" to Phil and the Deadheads who were about to take over the place. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but that's my fantasy and I'll always think it was a really nice touch by Tweedy and Wilco.

Quite true. We caught many great Hartford shows, including the May '77 show that was officially released as "To Terrapin." Also one of the weirdest shows (at least for us), Colt Park.

I watched the first set live Sunday, and then watched the second set last night. What a great show! Awesome set list (for me), great show to close out the run. Trey was into that First Tube, for sure, see if you find a video of that.

Tonight's first set from Dick's is absolutely killing it #couchtour Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Awesome! I hope to be tuning in. One of my concert bucket list items: Wilco in Chicago; any show at Red Rocks and Phish at Dick's Now that my son is living in Boulder, I should be able to get to ## 2 and 3. Had hopes to get to RR a couple of weeks ago when we were out there but our schedule did not permit.

no idea who they are, but that is one hell of a shot Tim.

I'm sure there's hours of endless noodling in this website: Trey's Guitar Rig. We're going to have a rainy Labor Day, I'm going to dig into this. http://www.jambase.com/article/new-website-alert-treys-guitar-rig-details-phish-guitarists-setups

My experience has been just the opposite. Maybe you should just toss disc 5 like a frisbee? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Christ for President!

That's what my wife and daughter thought

I had a hard time discerning any difference in the stage setup from the pics i saw on Twitter and Insta

TTB is an awesome band, glad you had your introduction. Don't miss them next time they're in your neighborhood. We were away with friends this weekend so my time was spotty, but caught a bunch of both Phish shows and a little of Phil. I completely missed MMJ but by all accounts they were the set of the festival. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I was in the Worcester Centrum with my family for the Runaway Jam show. Longest single song performance in Phish history. At least it was. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Those are 2 fantastic in depth pieces in CoS. OK, who's the VC'er from Des Moines? Give yourself up

I guess nobody here went to Lockn'. I went the last 2 years and had an absolute blast both times. Hope to watch the Phish show tonight. Free webcasts.

I'm a big fan of The Whole Love. But I digress.

The WELL

I hear you Boss, I miss them as well. I was with them pretty much from the get go, still remember hearing Radio Free Europe on the BC college station, and going over to the Harvard Coop in downtown Boston to buy Murmur when it was released. Don't listen to them often these days but when I do my head always explodes with how much I love their music. Don't know if I will get this, but likely I will, just don't know which offering.
