My uneducated guesses: Courtney Barnett Death Cab for Cutie Ohmme Jenny Lewis The Nude Party Jen Cloher Phosphorescent Hop Along Sunflower Bean

As long as we're doing jokes about this seriousness...he covers full albums, maybe there is an opportunity to do 'At Folsom Prison' or "Live in Cook County Jail'

I believe so. It is a great hat, even on a warm Chicago winter evening, but can't say that I condone wearing ones own merch. Flashbacks to the Pour Some Sugar on Me video with the singer wearing a shirt with his face covering the entire shirt...

Yes. I was on the ramp with my height challenged wife. Saw you closer to stage/Max during JT but then couldn't find you between sets - do you move??? I had mentioned to the wife ahead of the show about Max's connection to Jeff and the fact that most of the songs he performs are about death so it was amusing when both those things came up. It was a fun night - two live debuts by Jeff is more than one could ask for. Has Jeff ever worn his own merch during a show before? Is that cool?

I wonder if they can't announce USA dates until after Jeff's solo tour - a lot of times promoters want people to buy tickets for the current show vs buying tickets for the next show. Jeff is hitting a lot of markets March/April. July looks open on their schedule, but Nels has a couple shows booked in August. Maybe USA is winter tour? Those are better venues imo anyway...

Only outcry from me is the non-European date format! Ha

Chicago Theater shows were close to $100. I think rempish is on to something.

Any guess on average ticket price for the upcoming Wilco US tour? Seems like Jeff is charging about the same as Wilco was on their last tour for his solo shows (which are in smaller venues). Does that mean we are close to $80/$90 for tickets this tour? I'm hoping to score tickets for the Beck/Cage/Spoon tour and was surprised by the $120 cost for many of the seats...

They were all there the other week - and had a band outing to the Blackhawks game (minus Pat who was in town but must have had other evening plans) - which one can piece together from their various instagram accounts.

I thought I remembered that. Please cross post with the Various Wilco Demos, Downloads, Etc. thread. Thank you.

They immediately added a 2nd show in Chicago and both sold out. Underestimated their right venue size maybe?

Shake it Off - mainly for the repetitive nature of the chorus. The Tweedy machine is wisely playing up the song 'Warm' on social this week. Hope they are selling some hats and scarfs.

Nels in Berkeley next week. February 02: Nels Cline performs with Dave Harrington's Merry Pranksters at Threes Brewing in Brooklyn 04: Nels Cline performs as part of "Scott Amendola's 50th Birthday Thing" at Freight & Salvage in Berkeley 07: Glenn Kotche alongside Ate9 Dance Company perform calling glenn at the Northrup Auditorium in Minneapolis 07: Nels Cline 4 at Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix 08: Nels Cline 4 at Outpost Performance Space in Albuquerque 09: Nels Cline 4 at Ophelia's Electric Soapbox in Denver 11: Nels Cline 4 at The State Room in Salt Lake City

The shows are listed on wilcoworld which hasn't always happened (in my recollection)...and...you can request a song there...

their first album had a couple great great songs. A real bummer when subsequent music came out.

FACS

Yes! Also, their hats at merch booth just say 'Bad Bad' which I thought was well done. Great songs. So so live. Seeing them open for the Beths in a couple months...

Bad Bad Hats

If the brothers were smart, they'd use the publicity surrounding the publication as an opportunity to put out more previously unreleased material. It's hard to imagine that actually happening, but it is sad knowing how many likely songs there are out there that may never see the light of day...

Yes! See you there. It's as close as we can get to Lounge Axe these days...

Per a post on Lincoln Hall's Instagram, at the event "each artist will be covering some of their favorite love songs"

How is this not sold out after more than 24 hours on sale??

Great news on the Lincoln Hall show. Jeff does so much for so many good causes. Updated full list includes Jeff's spring tour + a Nels show in PA + second Ray/John shows in Melbourne & Sydney February 02: Nels Cline performs with Dave Harrington's Merry Pranksters at Threes Brewing in Brooklyn 07: Glenn Kotche alongside Ate9 Dance Company perform calling glenn at the Northrup Auditorium in Minneapolis 07: Nels Cline 4 at Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix 08: Nels Cline 4 at Outpost Performance Space in Albuquerque 09: Nels Cline 4 at Ophelia's Electric Soapbox in Denver 11: Nels Cl

A recording of this event is featured as the latest episode of the Talkhouse Podcast. As mentioned in early posts, unfortunately, it truly wasn't moderated very well.
