Might violate clause #3 of the new hip insurance contract? I'm not sure too many people on their second set get in the pit and try to love someone.

Agree. I went to all four and the 3rd show in the run is my favorite Wilco show of all time. Yes, basic setlist way too heavily focused on AGIB and YHF, but the energy in the room and the musicians just nailing their parts was outstanding.

Fun idea. Good choice since the length of that show is short enough to then go on and play other songs. Should we start asking them to recreate 5/7/05 (the extended/technical issues show at the Vic and final evening of the Kicking Television live set run)??!

Yes indeed.

Hoping to find a ticket for this one actually!

I was! Guy had a video running on his phone that he didn't know about. I've since edited that detail as to not offend anybody, but yeah, my thought process at first was whether my phone was making noise, moved quickly into who else could it have been including Sammy doing something Poor Places like on stage.

Any chance Jeff changed the lyrics in Feel Free at First Ave swapping "Paul and Tommy" in for the Beatles? That would have been a really nice touch...

Jeff Tweedy and the family band performed for one of the most enthusiastic crowds I've seen in a while!

I was there! Free show! "These are the happiest songs I have. I usually get asked to play for an organization called Growing Hopelessness." Jeff did a good job in a very non punk-rock environment with a mostly non-Wilco fan, but Wilco-curious, crowd of a few hundred. They 'sold' all 2,000 tickets (most for free), but most people didn't show up. So there was plenty of space for anyone who wanted to be there. Big shout out to Susie from Jeff. I wouldn't be here if not for her. I don't just mean here at this show. (or something to that effect). Audi

They are announcing Friday's set later this week per instagram. Seems early. Hope they can top Eras!

I thought it might be fun to see what creative ideas we all have for the band to adopt for their themed set. What do you all think? My best suggestion is 90's night: Play up on all that the 90's had going for them via visuals and wardrobe and them dedicate a set to songs from AM, Being There, Summerteeth, Mermaids, etc. The audience could be invited to get into the wardrobe thing too. Other decades are doable - I'd personally lay off the 2010's, but 2000's Wilco would be awesome as would 2020's. An obvious parrellel would be an era's setlist a la

Fun release coming up next month. I'm scratching my head on what we know/don't know about the tracks on the listing. Is there an explainer out there somewhere? https://recordstoreday.com/SpecialRelease/19250 Twelve rarities and unreleased tracks highlighting fifteen years of music on dBpm Records, most available for the first time on vinyl.  Includes a previously unavailable version of “Casper The Friendly Ghost” by Daniel Johnston and Jeff Tweedy, and Wilco’s cover of The Beatles’ “Don’t Let Me Down.” Red vinyl exclusive for RSD Black Friday. Side A 1

I wish Elkington was on this run too. Sima's outstanding at guitar and I bet we're not lacking for killer guitars between her and Jeff Tweedy.

I'm sure they'll play nearly exclusively Jeff Tweedy solo catalog music + a few select covers as in the past, and they have occasionally played CA Stars already, but.... What song would you want to see Jeff, Spencer, Sammy, Liam, Sima and Macy play on the upcoming tour? My thought is something with some violin for Macy to nail + a great chorus opportunity: Reservations and/or Either Way How about you?

I don't care what they say bbop, you know your audience! Thanks for the direct comparisons to the Wylico show. Looks like another fun night on tour despite the VIPs.
