I've been trying to find an episode of The Tweedy Show in which Jeff discusses the intention behind "She's a Jar." I thought it was a really early one but can't find it. 

I've also been going through the recaps but no such luck.

Anybody know?

Nothing really good to add here, but I just wanted to say that if anyone ever decides to do a Tweedy/Wilco wiki, that it should be called "Wilcopedia."

 

That's it.

 

Sorry, everyone.

Someone has written a book by that name.

Does anyone know what songs were broadcast on Wilco's show on Austin City Limits that was broadcast on November 3, 2007? Please let me know if you can.

Thanks,

Daniel

Hey - 

           I'm working on a project involving Wilco's TV appearances. Wilco played The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on May 28, 1999. Does anyone know what song they played?

Thanks,

Daniel

Yes, I know those dates. I can find only one recording from those shows - 11/19. That show's version of the song doesn't have the same dedication or anecdote.

Question for the hardcore (sorry for the length) - I have a live track of "Give Back the Key to My Heart" that doesn't have a venue/date. It has Tweedy dedicating the song after its performed to Doug Sahm because he "died the other day." Tweedy said “When we recorded that song…he said, we were playing sort of sloppy you know in Uncle Tupelo ‘you guys go ahead and do it your way, when I do my part, it’ll be perfect.”

Now since Sahm died in Nov. of 1999 I'd think it would be a show shortly after but I can't find a recording that lines up with the track I've got. Anybody know what show it came from?

Thanks so much, man! Really appreciate the link.

Does anyone know where this Jeff Tweedy quote about "The Lonely 1" comes from? -

"There’s two characters in ‘The Lonely 1’ and that’s the rock star and the fan, and that’s all it is to me. Music means something different to everybody and the stars are different to everybody. A lot of people don’t care who Ian Hunter is, but if I was in the same room with him, I wouldn’t be able to talk."

I can't seem to find it online.

Thanks

I'm looking for a copy of Wilco's show at the Riviera Theatre, Chicago 2/20/08, part of the residency in which they played their entire catalog. It's not up at Owl and Bear, and Sooutoftune.org has been down for a while.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Hey - 

         I've been trying to find a copy of Wilco's appearance on Sound Opinions 9/18/01. I've seen a thread about someone looking for it before but I've messaged those folks and haven't gotten any response. I've even messaged Greg Kot about it. 

Can anybody help me? Thanks in advance.

Is there anywhere online where there's a breakdown about what what date each track on Kicking Television: Live in Chicago is from? The bonus 8 tracks too on the vinyl box would be nice too. 

Thanks in advance.

Hey - I have a comp that has a track of Tweedy doing a solo version of the Grateful Dead's "Ripple" in which he barely sings any of the verses instead making up lines because he doesn't know each and every word about how he's not a Dead fan. I think it's a Lounge Ax show but I can't seem to locate which one.

Thanks!

Let me add another question, but about a Letterman appearance. Anyone know what Wilco played on the Late Show on 5/15/07?

Thank you, Pop Quiz Kid!

I've been trying to find this info somewhere online without any luck so I thought I'd ask here: what songs did Wilco perform on their appearances on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on 8/14/97 & 1/25/08?

Thank in advance for any help.

Hey - Getting different reports on how many songs Wilco played (and what they were) before they were rained out on Sunday night. anybody got the facts?

Anybody have the complete setlist? Trying to put it together from that above pic and all...

Does anybody have a copy of Jeff Tweedy's studio cover of Dylan's "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight"?

It was an outtake from the soundtrack for I'm Not There back in 2007. I heard it on a website back then back can't find it now.

Can anybody hook me up with the McDonald Theatre, Eugene, OR 9/4/03 show? Can't seem to find a good source online.

Since we're nearing Wilco's 20th anniversary I was wondering what folks consider to be their best ever, most essential bootleg recordings over the last 2 decades.

My top 5:

1. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Demos & Outtakes

2. The Troubador, Los Angeles: 11/12/96

3. Their 5 night residency at the Riveria in Chicago playing their entire catalog: 2/15-2/20/2008

4. Grant Park, Chicago: 7/4/01 (Jay Bennett's last show)

5. Solid Sound Festival 6/21/13 (completely kick ass covers)

Hey - Was anybody here at Sasquatch? I stayed up listening to the NPR broadcast and loved it.

I posted the setlist and Tweedy quotes from the show - My link

Hoping to read the impressions of the show from people who attended.

It's not just "sort of behind" - it's way behind. I like the site a lot and would love if it was updated now. I'll keep checking it though.

You should be able to go to Wilcobase and get all the setlists you want. It's just sort of behind at the moment. All you need to do is say - "setlist courtesy of Wilcobase".

 

Information wants to be free.

Thanks. I will do so.

You don't have to credit me specifically or by name, but you could say you pulled it from viachicago.org or whatever sources you're aggregating from. The point is attribution should always be made when you're taking info from another source. Journalism 101.

 

I'm not always the person who happens to post a setlist—mdpoet did it just the other night—so I don't know what others prefer in terms of how they want to be credited. But I would think that if you at least said you obtained "x" info from this forum (or wherever you got it from), that would be a step in the right direction.

Mr. Cheeztastic -How would you like to be credited? I can use your whole name if you like or just use "Mr. Cheeztastic" - whatever you prefer.

Thanks,

Dan
