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.

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.

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. -

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.
