  1. So excited, just bought my Tweedy tickets for Auckland!

    What do you think, any chance Wilco might come down at the same time? They have a gap in their schedule.... And it's been a while...

  2. Gotta say, it is kind of shaming to have such a feeble response from Aucklanders, especially when the show was so fantastic! But at least the general apathy has forced me to finally sign up here and post, rather than just lurk :blush

     

    Thanks for posting the set list, Monster - I never have complete recall, and the show was two and a half hours of bliss for me. just to add to your comments about the show, my only wish was that the audience had been a bit more animated - I got the feeling it was a bit of a disappointment to the band (even though in the words of Jeff "we feel like we live here!") that we weren't up dancing. I love, love, love the Civic, but maybe it was the wrong venue for this show? Those comfy airline seats seemed to make everyone a little sleepy, and it was almost like people felt they were in their own living rooms, with a beer, watching tv, rather than being at an interactive show.

     

    Still, it was a visual spectacle, so hey, maybe sitting down was appropriate, I dunno.

     

    As for the singalong, if Wilco keep coming back regularly, I'm sure we'll get enough practice in to make more of a noise! (I know I was shout-singing!).

     

    My favourite bits? California Stars under the twinkling stars of the Civic; "Three cheers for Wilco!"; and Jeff's banter, of course.
