I thought people were rowdy at both shows. In St. Augustine crowd didn't really understand that he was asking them to quietly fade out and end the song that way. I loved the acoustic version as well but I'm a sucker for that song.

 

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, terrific crowd in St. Augustine. But you are exactly right, there was just a miscue on the final bit of Misunderstood.

I ran into them at like 2 AM at this cheese steak place in St. Augustine. I think they are a very talented band, but I'm not sure they were a great fit as an opener for Wilco. Very nice people though, and a good band nonetheless.

They looked bored but the crowd goes for it. I promise you'll keep hearing it.

 

Yeah, HMD is one of the 2-4 songs they play basically every show. Jesus is another one. Though there is something quite funny to me about how the band can be so not into a song (in terms of body language) and still fart out an amazing sounding rendition.

Have to say the encore version of "Misunderstood" is probably one of my favorite parts of the current live show. Especially when the whole crowd sings along, didn't happen as much in St. Augustine, but was still excellent to hear. I was disappointed when it wasn't played at the Sunfest show.

But I think that's going to be the standard final song for the full 30 song setlists this summer, Jeff has it down to a science now, when he gets the final "Nothing at all" out and waves goodbye.

I freakishly catch Magazine a lot. Twice in one week? I've decided to like it. Now maybe it will go away (JK). I've seen in 03, 04, 11, 12 and now 15. Probably see it at Solid Sound too. 

 

Yeah, I think it may be my favorite Wilco song, but so hard to choose just one. They definitely slightly increased the frequency of it this tour for the Alpha Mike Foxtrot boxset, but was neat to have that and Cars Can't Escape. Again, that's the type of songs you would have only heard at Solid Sound (at least during the same show) as I remember during 2010.

 

I really can't remember if I knew Magazine befroe Solid Sound 2010, but I vaguely recall being excited when they started playing it. It's in i am trying to break your heart, so I think I knew it from there.

i'd like to hear a 2015 version of Gun with the band... not just solo. they could tear one apart with 2 or 3 guitars

That would be interesting. Coincidentally I am listening to that right now from the final UT show (the one Jeff mentioned at the show) - has Wilco ever done it? I know way back in the early days they would have Jeff do a solo set during some shows and play UT stuff, but I don't know if the band ever did Gun.

That show was absolutely incendiary. Fantastic set list, great energy from the band, an enthusiastic audience. Jeff was all smiles the whole night! Highlights for me were Pot Kettle Black, Camera (I'm a convert), the ever-raucous Monday, Dark Neon (never heard before), and, of course, Hoodoo Voodoo. With cowbell.

 

Thank you, Wilco, for bringing the magic to F-L-A!!!

Do you mean you are a convert from Kamera to Camera? Or just the song in general? I think I prefer Camera to Kamera (unreleased version to released version, in case it wasn't clear.)

 

Though to an extent they are different songs so I appreciate them both. Definitely love Camera at live shows. Dark Neon was the only song I didn't know, I was in shock because this doesn't usually happen at Wilco shows, luckily Mr. Heartbreak was there so I could ask him.

 

And "Monday" has been great these past FL shows. The band is really in top form, should be a great summer tour.

Yeah, agreed Mr. Heartbreak. I heard Magazine at Solid Sound in 2010, figured that was it. Now we've heard it twice in a week. And as we discussed, I was really hoping they would play We've Been Had again.

Nice meeting you, btw.

So, Wilco just told me on Twitter that I am on the list for a free ticket with a plus one (I made a joke about selling platelets to buy tickets, but I wasn't planning on going since I saw them in Tally and West Palm and am 4 hrs away) - soooo guess I am driving to St. Augustine in an hour.

Missed Orlando and not going to St. Augustine, but Tally and Sunfest shows were excellent (I prefer Tally becaues it was strictly Wilco show and I was like 20 ft away the whole time, none of this VIP area nonsense like at Sunfest but my homeland of South FL loves to make everything into a matter of who paid more and who didn't) - so I imagine Orlando was amazing too as will be St. Augustine. Gutted I have to wait another two months until Solid Sound but I suppose it will be worth it.

Sunfest crowd was more into it than I expected, but I think Tallahassee show was still more lively, plus I liked the acoustic encore at the end. At the same time, I did like how they played through the encore at Sunfest, saved me energy from clapping and yelling for an encore.

 

Wish I had gone to Orlando now that I know they played We've Been Had.

Best Wilco show I have been to so far. I was in that dancing pit up front from Airline until the end, what an experience to be that close for a show. Great venue too.

Yeah, I heard that a few weeks ago. BUT I bought a lawn ticket the day they announced the show. Wilco tix are cheap, so, not a huge deal. It's really cool though since I can bring plenty of friends who otherwise may not have paid. And/or a nice girl to slowdance to Jesus, Etc. with.

 

I was driving by the venue yesterday since I haven't been, and I was in the area. It's a very nice park. Must be very new. The ampitheatre itself didn't seem that big (it's probably the same size as Cruzan Ampitheatre in Palm Beach, if you're familiar with that, but maybe not) but it seems like a nice little venue. Convenient location, sort of. Parking may or may not be a mess, but then in Tallahassee as a student if you don't mind walking, you can park anywhere.

Same here guys. I'm about 30 minutes from Sunfest (10 minutes from Cruzan, so it was cool when they were there) - but I go to FSU so I will be in Tally for their Tally show, and like five minutes away. Depending on my finals schedule, I would like to see them at Sunfest too. But I am going to Solid Sound this year as well so, I can live with only two shows. Ideally I'd see all their FL dates.

Mr. Heartbreak, Weir sang back up for most of Ripple and then took over for the last or second to last verse.

 

I took down the setlist but you guys have already posted it, so I'll just give a short review.

 

I was very pleasantly surprised to see how big the turnout was for this concert, but I suppose there were 3 relatively popular acts (plus Bob Weir, who I think was actually a huge draw for the concert based on how many baby boomers in Dead t-shirts I saw, but many of them seemed to like Wilco too, or MMJ, and obviously Bobby D as well) and I was misinformed by the Miami Beach concert from last year where Wilco had a paltry showing (crowd wise, the band was great) at the Fillmore.

 

Anyway, MMJ were pretty good but I was too pre-occupied waiting for Wilco to really care. Bob Weir was great too, really liked his set. Wilco's set was very good, Glenn didn't stand on his durms I believe, but they were very tight as always and very good. A bit heavy on songs from TWL but I love that album so it's all good.

 

I was also surprised when they called Bob Weir up, then very unsurprised when they played Ripple with him. I figured they would play it with or without him since they played it Friday at Solid Sound. Weir stayed on for California Stars, sang back up. The older Deadheads were SO excited when they went into Ripple, so that was nice.

 

I left about halfway through Dylan's set, I love Dylan, but he's re-arranged most of his older songs anyway and I wanted to get home so I could get to sleep at a reasonable time. Besides, I mostly came for Wilco.

Anyone else going to this concert?

 

I always get so pumped when Wilco come to SoFla, and the fact that Bob Dylan is playing too is perfect.

 

Last year I had to drive to Miami Beach to see the boys, this year they're coming to my backyard!

Does anyone have/know where I can find chords to any Bill Fay songs?

 

Google has been relatively fruitless, with one or two exceptions. It seems there just aren't any transcriptions out there.

Ok so, based on this video of Jeff on that Canadian show, I have transcribed the lyrics and tried to figure out the chords. Fair warning, this is my first attempt at doing this.

 

Capo 4

The verse chords are: C, F, G7 (that I'm somewhat sure of)

Chorus: F, Am, Dm, G7 (or maybe C)

Lyrics: (each line starts again at C)

 

I would throw myself underneath the wheels of any train of thought

Running off the rails I’ll sail you through the waves of your brain

If I could bring a light to shine upon the dark and disobey t

he night so young but I still say to old clichés

 

Chorus 1: Oh I can only dream of the dreams we’d share, if you were so inclined….I would love to be the one to open up your mind

 

I could base my whole existence upon the cherry strands of your gold hair

And I would almost insist upon treating you kind of fair

 

Chorus 2: Oh I can only dream of the dreams we’d have if our hearts were so intwined…if you would let me be the one to open up your mind

 

I’ll still be myself beneath the banks all broken aside the stream

Ready to return your thoughts unlearned so it goes, so it seems

 

Chorus 3: Oh I can only dream of the dreams we’d share if you weren’t so defined……I would love to be the one to open up your mind

If you would let me be the one, to open up your mind

decent interview and performance, especially the bon jovi comments.

 

jeff should really make a solo record.

 

That seems unlikey, Jeff's a team player.

 

Except for guys named Jay. He hates guys named Jay.

Hey guys,

 

Does anyone have a tab of Walken as Jeff plays it solo?

is video of him playing it the other night in Montreal, that's the version I'm looking for.

 

Thanks.

Ah!

 

I always get so jealous when I miss a great show.

 

I wish the guys and/or Jeff would just come down to Florida. Sigh.

 

But the setlist sounds great, I'm excited to hear the new song(s).

Thanks guys!

Hey guys, my friend just showed me this video and I'm really curious (as is she) as to what it's from. The interview from the beginning makes me think of a documentary obviously, but I'm 100% sure there isn't some newish Wilco documentary I haven't seen

I was at the Dylan show the night before in Davie, the venue (Arena at Nova State) was awful, the acoustics were terrible and the sound was muffled.

 

I'd like to say that Bob and his Band put on a great show but I couldn't tell.

What are the chords for the version Jeff plays live?

Yeah ok, the snake. Let's talk left and right in terms of audience l / r, like us looking toward the stage I was to the right of the snake just barely, right at the soundboard rail. Silver stand, yes.

 

Oh wait, try this - I was the only guy who didn't have a mic umbrella - that help?

 

I was pretty close to you I think, I was basically on the snake, if by snake you mean the black thing covering the wires, I was about 25-30 feet ahead of the main soundboard though.
