Ghostlight and Greensky Bluegrass. I'm exhausted from SBS but the shows go on.

Nothing irrational about that. Those 2 songs killed, I've always loved hearing them live.

We were told 1800 tix sold. Like first SS, very good for the patrons, not so much fore the promoters but they look at this as a long term project. From my perspective and interractions, I'd say this is a solid Wilco show. Don't get any vibe this is a resort vacation and yeah, we'll here some music kind of crowd. But YMMV. Nice to finally get to meet our intrepid reporter Paul last night. And i got my Monday!

BTW for you CB fans, the new tune was absolutely fantastic! I great guitar riff tune. You'll be happy to hear it.

I was wrong about that. Courtney was solo but very much electric.

Yes, we were at Mikael’s set. I didn’t know what to expect and was thrilled to hear all funk and soul grooves. It was such a nice add to an already amazing night

That was one show of three. I’ve got patience

Epic show for me and my crew. Outstanding. That set list and the band delivered powerful versions of each. And a lot of rock n roll.

Sky Blue Sky: Courtney Barnett-solo acoustic Wilco and then everything listed through Tuesday

Very psyched about this release. A freaking classic show. I had this on cassette going back years and it was always a fave. Fantastic Spanish Jam. That entire jam sequence is a winner. Will be glad to have this cleaned up.

Phish

in 108 row 14 tonight. We'll be at the Blind Tiger pre-show

Hey, let's play two! Phish Phish after-party midnight set at Sony Hall with Medeski, Martin, Metzger and some guy Nels Cline!

Spiders! I came into town for the Sunday and Monday shows knowing I wasn't going to catch everything, but damn I would have liked to have heard Spiders. I was at that last one played in St. Paul.

Ian O'Neil of Deer Tick is opening. Any thoughts on whether that's a set I should catch?

Lucero

Yes, I noticed the absence of any mention of Pat. It's criminal, I love Pat's guitar work on that blonde Tele, in addition to everything else he does but particularly his guitar playing.

Agree I also did not perceive this to be a special hometown show, but to my first time in Chicago ears it was very cool to hear Via Chicago in front of the hometown crowd, a definite extra buzz in the audience

Wilco and Robyn Hitchcock for me too! On a plane waiting to take off from BOS.

Woke up this morning in Boston and all of a sudden it hit me that I'm seeing Wilco 2x in Chicago starting this very weekend! Psyched

The link says they're broadcasting the Thursday show.

Everyone's looking for different things. I always have tons of fun and get a lot of joy from seeing Phish. Friday was a particularly special night (although the Saturday show totally killed) as I was there with my 29 year old son on the exact 22nd anniversary of his (and his sister's) first show (the Runaway Jam show in Worcester). So that was extra fun, although he would have much preferred the Saturday show. Speaking of Big Cypress, I've been listening to a podcast series about Cypress, "After Midnight, Phish's Big Cypress Festival." Very interesting.
