  1. Thanks for recapping these! I tend to catch a little each night but not all. We are fortunate that they are doing these each night.

     

    I'm sort of curious if they'll ever cover a song from the last 20 years.

  2. Ok. I'll play. I was late to the REM arriving for Monster tour in Ann Arbor which was fantastic.

     

    Went to Blossom in OH to see them & Wilco Summerteeth era and we were on the lawn. The sky opened up raining cats and dogs for the It's the End of the World encore which I still vividly remember 22 years later.

     

    Made a Wilcation out of the 2003 shows where Wilco opened for REM in Vancouver and Seattle and wow were those great shows for both bands.

  3. Yesterday, looking for an pandemic activity, 3 Wilco fans and I drafted and created a 10 song album of Wilco (+Mermaid) originals. Your vote matters. Who did it best? Also, what song would be your first pick?

     

    Mods, feel free to delete if this is too far off brand for 'Just a Fan'

  4. Has anyone seen anything about tomorrow’s presale?

     

    Yes! There is one. There pw info is really easy to find on Wilco's tour page and in the text of the youtube video posted above.

  5. Show still on for tonight in Madison, Wisconsin...should be fun. 

     

    Nice! Glad they are at least getting this leg going. Hope they make it Vegas where I'm catching them

  6. "one recently unearthed (but never released) cover of “Casino Queen” by Billy Gibbons featuring Jeff Tweedy himself on guitar."

     

    nice!

  7. Really? Are all/most shows in Seattle currently being postponed or canceled? Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately), I had to skip the Seattle Wilco shows on this upcoming run anyway, so it doesn’t affect my plans but I was just curious.

     

    It doesn't look like shows are currently being postponed, but the situation won't likely get better there any time soon. Amazon & Microsoft have told told all employees to work from home. Schools in a district N of Seattle are closed for up to two weeks. Hopefully it all works out, Wilco and YFF play amazing shows and everyone stays healthy. 

  8. I wonder why they just dropped two Fillmore performances out of nowhere like that? I would have thought they would have announced this with the rest of the March shows a few months ago.

     

    Two? What do you know that we don't?

     

    I suspect they either held onto this to make an announcement that would prompt sales at other gigs, OR had to sell out the Oakland shows before announcing, OR had an open day reserved for media appearances that didn't come through and booked it up. Either way, hell of a venue. Is it the venue they've played the most gigs at? Probably either that or Riviera in Chicago?

  9. Picked up tickets to see Chris and Rich perform at Lincoln Hall in a few weeks. Going to be interested to see what the song selection is like for the show. I'm hoping it veers off of Shake Your Money Maker liberally. They couldn't have picked a better Chicago venue.

  10. Pit GA for St. Augustine. $200 total including fees. Damn. I wavered for a moment, but went ahead. I know it's the market, but it seems crazy. I paid $60 for 2 w fees a few days ago for Lucero later this month. Wild.

     

    $200 is for two tickets, right? I'm seeing $77 + fees as the ticket price. I too wish the market was not at this level (at either $100 or $200!)
