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.

Twin Peaks

No one believes that! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to attend this year, but was able to stream Jeff's set. The Vince razzing by Jeff and TJ as enjoyable.

Yes raising $60K there alone. So cool. Another show available for bidding online: https://www.charitybuzz.com/catalog_items/private-concert-with-jeff-tweedy-in-your-living-room-1934000

Great following all the recaps. Thanks for the effort. Pretty great variety over the three nights for a 25 year old band. 86 Total Songs Performed46 Unique songs performed26 Songs performed twice16 Songs performed three times3 fake encore breaks3 actual encore breaks

Whitney's cover of Far, Far Away is streaming on Spotify (and I assume elsewhere) now.

I paid a $13 fee for Vegas for a presale ticket. I think each venue/ticketing service might be a little different.

My money is on them scheduling FL dates after the SC festival in April.

I give up, why is the password "Magic" for presale?

You all are debating this like they'll get in. I don't see it happening. They aren't popular enough. There is not a single artist in the HOF who hasn't had an arena tour.

Yes! Two years to the day of it's last play in MN.

Hopefully VCers in attendance will share their reviews, I found this one online which says they played 175 minutes last night. https://www.kansascity.com/entertainment/music-news-reviews/article237405444.html

Just coming back to say that Meat Hair did not perform and the show was very good. It must be weird to open for Wilco at a medium sized venue one night and play for 40 people in a club the next night. Jessica spoke about her admiration for Wilco, pleasure in being able to open the shows, and said she was still on cloud nine for playing onstage with them the night before. That led to her cover of Reservations which was good.

Twin Peaks' Spiders take is streaming on Spotify...

You just have to love this Pittsburgh Post-Gazette headline Wilco overcomes a bad salad to play another great Pittsburgh show https://www.post-gazette.com/ae/music/2019/11/07/Wilco-review-Ode-to-Joy-Pittsburgh-Heinz-Hall-Jeff-Tweedy-Nels-Cline/stories/201911070116

Meat Hair isn't on the bill anyway (Faux Furrs & Big Syn are). I will be interested to see if they put a Wilco cover back in their set.

Deep Sea Diver

I love it when Wilco (or other bands too actually) get referred to as 'the boys'. Thank you!

The optics on the tour just feel super douchy. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/black-crowes-2020-reunion-tour-dates-910124/
