It's clearly photoshopped, so I doubt it. If the band is willing to photoshoot a camel's birthday party, this would be a walk in the park. The Notorious Wilco Brothers, however, is very interesting... edit: not ever having listened to the Byrds, I didn't notice the reference to that album.

Pat has been showing off his muscle lately with leading the production side of TWL and even on-stage (using his Billy-Bo for "Red-Eyed and Blue/I Got You at the Cap show stands out in my mind) but I would personally like to hear less of the late 60's/70's aesthetic moving forward. I would be interested in seeing what the band could with less guitar. Summerteeth stands as the only up-front synth record (Art of Almost aside) and but that lacked nuance and was buried under chugging baritone guitar or steel guitar ala Nashville (I'm Always in Love, ELT). In my mind I see giving Mikael the lead

I don't think Wilco should ever make an attempt at "The White Album". I think people forget that the Beatles were easy to listen to with such quick succession because they had three (four twice and 1/2) songwriters that made cohesive yet disparate records. Here, it's just Jeff with varying band input (now that Jay has been long gone). I like Sukierae, but it could have been a stronger single album if only for the style fatigue factor. As for 2004 holding the last "masterpiece" album, that is affected by when you started listening. If you look at Wilco in phases (1:AM, BT, Mermaid(s). 2: Sum

"Hotel Arizona" (They played it at SS4 and he didn't forget the lyrics this time!) "Shake it Off" "Black Moon" Honorable mention my all-time favorite Wilco songs Muzzle of Bees and Pot Kettle Black but I don't think they are particularly forgotten about.

It poured on Friday night in 2011 and left Joe's Field flooded that entire weekend. However, that was still an amazing Solid Sound if not for the sheer volume of songs that they played that I rarely get to hear ("Hotel Arizona", Hell is Chrome"). I would say that it was better than Solid Sound #3 because two nights of Wilco is better than A cover set (however special that was) and no "A Ghost is Born"). Simply put, come equipped, spend time in the galleries when the rain is hardest, and enjoy the show because this does only happen "Every Other Year". Maybe one day they will go back to the orig

This almost seems conflicting... Are you baffeled because more people don't like them or because people like them? I love Shake it Off and request it every SS. Sunloathe would be pretty sweet in the acoustic show if they have trouble pulling it off normally.

I think "Wishful Thinking" has enough respect in the community, but "One Wing", I was sad to see that song disappear from the live set. They should bring back the pairing with "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart", that was my favorite part of the W(tA) and Evening With sets.

Did anyone notice that the official wilcoworld set list has "Shake It Off" on it despite the fact that they didn't play it? A big disappointment here, been shouting that song since the first Solid Sound.

I'm definitely a member of the "AGIB is Wilco's best work" party but I also think that SBS is their third best outfit. Call it boring or whatever you like, but IMHO the second half of that record (and the first for that matter) get right inside of specific emotions and human moments that the other records missed out on. That's what makes Wilco amazing, they continue to explore different things as they move on like Jeff discussing parenting on TWL's "I Might". I don't know where you place yourself on "the second half" of SBS but "Shake It Off" really angles on moving through depression and t
