New date in Minnesota in September at a 16,000 seat amphitheater at a casino. The beginning of a fall tour? Casino circuit?

The Musicares event which honored Aerosmith this year.

Nice that Joey was able to appear. I slagged Aero for opening Vegas shows with Joe Perry's Let The Music Do the Talking and I'm sticking with that but Foo Fighters sound pretty great doing it. “Rats in the Cellar,” Cheap Trick “Crazy,” Jonas Brothers “Angel,” Luis Fonsi & Emily King “Dude (Looks Like a Lady)” Ashley McBryde “What it Takes,” Gavin DeGraw “Janie’s Got a Gun,” Kesha “Cryin,’” Yola & Gary Clark Jr. “Livin’ on the Edge,” LeAnn Rimes “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing,” John Legend “Home Tonight,” Jessie J “Walk This Way,” Melissa Etheridge with Nuno Bettencourt “Back in the S

Bob Seger's ShakeDown is his only #1 hit 26 years into his career & Cheap Trick with their only #1, The Flame, 15 years into their career (they didn't write it) are other examples

I sort of assume the short set is the result of age/stamina + the casino wanting those people on the casino floor and may even have set length guidelines in the contract...

The payments for his replacement are not really in dispute by Kramer so I don't know why we are making a big deal out of that. Can we talk about how Aerosmith is opening their residency shows with a Joe Perry Project cover instead?

High Water fest daily schedule is now out. Wilco headline on Sunday 4/19. Same night as Mavis Staples and Sharon Van Etten so hoping for some collaborations!

You are so right. I deleted my confusing post.

Nice. Compare the two Chicago Theatre Winterludes variety-wise: 2017: 106 songs performed with 49 unique songs. 2019: 114 songs performed with 48 unique songs.

Wilco delivered. It was a fantastic show. My jaw dropped during Bull Black Nova. We Were Lucky was stellar. The surprise Spiders was intense and featured the South American guitar riff crowd participation. SVE opening. Sort of speechless still.

I must be missing the awesome parts of the review. Seems like the latter to me. Mentions all band members in the article except Pat.

I totally agree with bbop. I was there last night and it just isn't a good energy for a Wilco show compared to many other venues. UIC was a better big option. Last night was show #74 for me. The fake and real encores were pretty stellar, but other than that a very subpar experience. I really couldn't dislike OtJ more so that is likely a big factor for me.

John's part of a benefit show on Thursday (prior to Winterlude finale) at the Chicago Cultural Center: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/gather-remember-act-tickets-85183334647 Cup (Nels & Yuka C Honda) have a West Coast tour on the books February with stops in Portland, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Nels also has a few late December shows/appearances in NYC.

And less sloppy than their first show back after a few weeks off...

UPDATE: XRT's live broadcast with Wilco is being rescheduled from the Sunday night concert to Thursday night’s show at the band's request. The Thursday show marks the final night of the Wilco Winterlude and is the band's last performance in 2019.

The show looks to be at Chicago Athletic Association fwiw

The online auction went for $37.5K! Great news for this charity.

Wilco is playing Songkick Live on Monday at noon. "An intimate live performance at a unique venue"

On Sunday, December 15th, we'll be broadcasting the opening night of the Wilco Winterlude as Wilco takes the stage at the Chicago Theatre. Beginning at 8:30 PM Central Time, listen on the RADIO.COM app and hear Wilco kick off the first of four shows in Chicago. https://www.radio.com/blogs/93xrt-staff/93xrt-broadcast-special-wilco-live-in-chicago

But, who is Wilco's Dick?

It's so great they are releasing these. Do we actually know how they (and who is they?) are selecting which shows from the archive to release? like, is there a Dick Latvala (Dick's picks) for Wilco?

Ha. No! Not at all. Their original material had people moving around - semi-moshing, pogoing, jumping and shouting the lyrics. Nothing like that for Spiders.

Sort of interesting to see them perform their cover of Spiders (Kidsmoke) last night and the sold out crowd's reaction. It was the least popular of all the songs they played last night. Sounded pretty good to my ears though.
