Loved the show! The OTJ tunes were intense. Like someone said, very well paced setlist. Every time I see Wilco I come away absolutely marveling at Glenn and tonight was no exception.

Wilco! Night 1 of 2 in my hometown!

I get most of the GD releases and box sets. Ready or Not? I say "not."

Tedeschi Trucks Band. Taking a road trip to the Beacon.

Wrote to Kung Fu and they immediately sent a new email with the download. They always have the best customer service.

Got my vinyl yesterday. Not a "reaction" (yet) but did anyone get the email with the download code today? I haven't.

David Byrne-my turn tonight (after having to miss the two shows I had 5th row center seats for)

Me too!

They've been doing this for several years in some form or another. During JazzFest in NOLA and I think at the Cap Theater, I don't think they've taken it on the road before but I could be mistaken. Anyhow, I'm in for Boston. Some may call it a cash grab, but I'm looking forward to seeing Warren (I'll see him do anything) with Modeski, Don Was, Cyril Neville, Terrance Higgins, et al play the Last Waltz. The music is timeless and I'm pretty certain I'll have a great night.

Hot Tuna and Dave Mason

Great work Tim. We missed our first SS this year but your piece brought it all to life. Great shots and words.

My take from my living room with the FM stream. Too much karaoke. I was frustrated not hearing Jeff sing these songs. Part of my issue was I thought the guest vocals were way too high in the mix, amplifying the off key parts and pushing the instruments into the background. My wife liked it better than I did. Loved Poor Places and CB on Handshake. Spoke to friends who were there (who were skeptical going in) and they loved it. Missing the visuals on an FM stream took away a lot. Also heard it was packed to the gills.

This is the first SS my wife and I will not be attending. Hope everyone has a blast! We'll be listening in tomorrow night.

Gov’t Mule

Steven Hyden is an excellent writer. He used to cover music and culture for the Grantland site. And he's a Wilco fan. Does anyone other than me want to hear You Satellite again? And again, and again?

Drive-By Truckers

Sounds and looks great. Jeff’s voice sounds a little shot though. Especially on Whole Love.

Same, I can't do it anymore. So slow and sluggish, every song the same mid-tempo. The end for me came when I got home from the Wilco St. Paul November 2017 run and went to a Dead & Co. show the next night. I thought my head was going to explode in frustration at the lack of any dynamic range. I see as many JRAD shows as possible. My favorite way to see live GD music these days.

I wholeheartedly agree. 1991 was the last year of good shows that I saw or still listen to. The Boston Garden fall run specifically. I saw several 93-95 shows, any moments of inspiration were few and far between.

Based on Glenn's drum skin should we be expecting some Batman themed album title?

What year was that? Pretty sure I was there too.

So many excellent albums listed here. I had not realized 1989 was such a significant year. Thanks.
