lazy locomotives

I have to agree on the song choices - totally unexpected...and the camera work on both is stellar...wow. Love both performances, but Laminated is off the charts...

All set with my C-bus tix...some things are meant to work out...

This is TOO cool...I couldn't believe it when I saw it on f-book...Wilco will love you, baby...

ok...I gotta calm down here...all the recent show announcements, to a gig, I had conflicts of some sort or another...the best opportunity was Rochester, but that wasn't going to work out because I'm going to be in...wait for it...COLUMBUS, OH. that weekend...is it possible for them to hit C-bus on the way home? I've been looking at their schedule and I know they're heading to Europe about a week later...so any insight from my fellow VCers? late Aug/early Sep may work as well...keepin' my fingers crossed...

I can't believe how late I am posting on this, but here goes...lol. Absolutely had a blast at our first 'solo' Tweedy show and there were so many highlights I don't know where to start. It felt more like 'An Evening With Jeff Tweedy" rather than a solo show of sorts - the banter and interaction with the audience was priceless. I was also jazzed by some of the song selections, particularly Bull Black Nova, and the Tupelo stuff like, Wherever and Watch Me Fall and of course, Acuff-Rose...also, I have to single out Capital City ...having just recently heard the whole band roll that out in Detroit

Going tonight as well...not sure when the doors open, so we'll have to bundle up! I'm assuming (hoping) it's rather orderly when the doors open for the GA seats? If they're taking any requests, I'd love to hear something like Dash 7, or Should've Been In Love...

absolutely beautiful...thx for posting...

Well, didn't get gold, but we'll be there 3/31!

I hear ya...then I got to thinking...wouldn't it be cool to hear Wilco do a cover of "Uncle Albert"?

Wow, we'd love, love, love to be there! How do we get tix?

couldn't agree more...good stuff.

Well put!

I certainly don’t hate Foo Fighters, I’m just indifferent to them, and since this site isn’t called “Via Foo Fighters”, it’s reasonable to expect some snarky post-Grammy comments. Winning awards is nice, but I don’t look to the Grammys to validate my tastes in music, anyway. Therefore, I applaud Foo Fighter’s win, but will I buy their cd? Nah. I may run to the local library and take it out for a week, tho. Conversely, I’m more than happy to book a hotel, and drive hundreds of miles to see Wilco…I buy virtually anything they put out, and truly love this band, and always will. I’m certainly

Foo Fighters. Meh.

Wow...sitting here watching American Idol (forgive me...the auditions are hilarious)...and the background music over one of the pre-taped bits is "I Might"...am I the only one who caught this? I probably should have posted this in the "Wilco heard around town" forum, but what the heck...

Wow - you clearly work with idiots. Your beautifully written post resonated with me, so I had to join in. IMHO, Wilco is, hands-down, the most significant, creatively relevant American band of the last 40 years and their legacy is astonishing (including UT). It may sound like blasphemy to some, but I put Wilco in the same category as The Beatles and have to really clam up in mixed company. The 'evangelical' reference above is very accurate and I usually choose to simply 'enjoy' my passion and share when the subject comes up, but I avoid pushing it. Many people don't even know who they are,

You and me both...I started a thread a while back on this issue...when, pray tell, will we hear?

So many highlights and definitely a great show…I also enjoyed hearing the Candyfloss/Standing O/I’m A Wheel closer…that was killer. I particularly liked the syncopated variation on Pot Kettle Black’s steady riff...not sure if that’s a new thing this tour or what. The opener of OSM into Poor Places then AOA is epic and is just astonishing to listen to. I Must Be High and Passenger Side were very cool to hear, although I would’ve loved to hear them do Should’ve Been In Love or Dash 7 – my personal A.M. favorites. This was our second time with Nick since October having seen him at The Largo

I hear ya...I've got some commitments lining up next summer and I'm really trying to plan around Solid Sound...argh! SS2011 was SUCH a good time (in spite of the rain)...

Been a while since I posted this, so I figured I'd check to see if anyone's heard anything in the last month...

I would be stunned if they weren't nominated for at least Alt Album...Album Of The Year would be well-deserved, tho...

What a great discussion… One of the things that makes this band so fascinating, are the very touches everyone’s talking about – Wilco is such a detail-oriented band, they make headphone listening imperative. That said, I may as well dive in with what really is a cursory list – there’s simply too many to mention, but here we go: From A.M.: The overall hazy, druggy sound of “Should’ve Been In Love”. Awesome. My favorite track on an already impressive 1st album. From Being There: In Misunderstood, just before Jeff tees off with the “I wanna thank you all for nothing”, the underlying soun

Pissed Jeans and Fucked Up...the 'dad-rock' of 2024.

Any thoughts as to if/when SS2012 will happen?

wow. excellent x 2000. Jesus, I love this band.
