OK the Shit has hit this fan (please consider this a Replacements Official Cassette "Bootleg" reference)!!! The main guy I'm going with has canceled, but gallantly agreed to pay for his ticket if I can't get rid of it...but...to complicate matters, a group of folks from New Jersey who were going to go...now all can't. It was a family. Arrggghhhh... Sooooooooo... I've got 4 tickets in the center 20th row (best possible sound wise). If you're interested PM me, or email me at "HareDurga@yahoo.com", or heck feel free to call me at (585) 582-6331- I can always edit that out.. The 2 in the pit are h

Thanks! You too!! And glad this works out for you, so you can make it!

?9) Columbus, OH- August 4th? It's a Saturday &... it would allow me to see my old friend Michelle & her family (I'd stay with them in Akron after the show)...it's also about 6 hours away or so, & it'd be the last gig (general admission, outdoors) I can get to...looks like it won't sell out & I'm hoping that I could get cheap tickets to help me rationalize going...I'm betting by the time I've seen all the others that I won't want it to end & that I'll go for it. After the Forecastle show last night I really started thinking it's more likely than not, but...I started thinkin

Thanks again to "Shug" for getting the word out on this. If there is a webcast repeat, or it gets posted on youtube, whoever discovers that hopeful info, please update the rest- I know I would/will... What a great show! It's got me psyched for next Saturday in Camden/Philly (even if they are only playing 75 minutes as the headliner, which is insane- love what they did with a mere 90 here) & I'll be honest...it also has me considering going to Columbus, OH the day after Rochester for a 9th show this tour.

Lima, N.Y. ...just south of Rochester, N.Y. ...

YAY!!! And thanks!!

1) I've got to drive home, 5-6 hours, right after this gig, so adding an opening act, almost no matter who is not a happy thing for me...I'm OK with Cibo Matto, but really would rather not have any one opening up...also because... 1a) Now not only will I be driving home later, but...I also will have to be standing up front in a crowded club (after waiting in line for a long time to be up front) to get to Wilco before the too long, too late, drive home... Ugh & Aargh...

I think it's somewhat amusing how all pervasive their level of merch is, but...I also think in an era where there's less & less money made from album sales that it's a good way for fans to support the band. And I think that whoever is in charge of this that they do a pretty creative job of putting out interesting & wildly varying products stylistically speaking...don't always love all of it, but love plenty of it's designs & execution.. A few other thoughts... 1) I wish they'd go back & re-release some of the best shirts/hats/scarves, etc., etc. ...Like the one that was sty

Holy Crap! This truly sucks. I bought tickets for this because it was the first thing close by on the east coast that went on sale & I figured- in case they don't come any closer, & who knows how long or short this tour will be, I'd better go for it. Don't get me wrong I like Dr. Dog & The Avetts, but man I'm there for Wilco & a 75 minute set really sucks. Worst part is I have 4 cursed "will call" tickets, so I have to be there to get those...and with what "Three dollars and 63 cents" has to say about traffic & I lost my wingman for the road trip today (got 2 pit tickets &a

You know as I read you post here, I'm thinking you sound a little scratchy...like Summer cold scratchy...It might not be a bad idea, preemptively speaking of course, for you to consider calling in sick on, oh I don't know say the night of July 25th

And I've got to say that I absolutely LOVE both of those songs...and I did find that there is a Jeff Tweedy solo version of "Solitaire" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=astXeia7VMk Sounds Nick Drake worthy to these ears...

Oops my bad...as I called her "King" of the 2012 shows...guess that should have been QUEEN!...but if you are a he, then you could be King & Queen...

1) Did you go to Red Rocks as well (both nights)? 2) Just saying that if you're already in NYC & love Wilco this much...you know there is a show on Weds. July 25th in NYC at Terminal 5 in Manhattan. GO!!

Congrats you are now in two-way tie with "Wilco Me" for the gold medal of this thread with 9 shows... Wilco Me's list... Tampa St. Augustine Red Rocks Red Rocks Wolf Trap Wolf Trap Charlottesville Mass MoCA Hartford

Well I'm glad that mystery is solved!! Onto to lots of shows filled with lots of "Wilco (The Album)"!!! There isn't a definitive list of setlists on this site, but there's lots of them & they offer Rock Geek ready statistical berakdowns (hey helped me make great CD's of the songs most likely to be heard at this year's shows for a few friends & it's interesting to Rock Geeks like myself)... http://www.setlist.fm/setlists/wilco-23d6982b.html click on "more Wilco statistics" for the breakdowns, from various perspectives... They first started playing songs in off it in 2008 (69 shows l

That is really bizarre...but...it makes total sense...since, as I noted in an earlier post, they'd done 7 songs from this album earlier in 2012...& plenty of it in 2011 as well (even more actually- both in percentage of songs done & number of songs from the album)...It would be very odd for them to suddenly, totally ignore the album..If that's the truth, it's really a pity...If that's the truth, it's really a pity...especially since I'll be seeing them a ton, & it's my second favorite Wilco album!! I'm sure whatever insane legal parameters will pass after a certain period...so sad

LOL...I gotta sleep, see some acupuncture clients of mine, & draw the line somewhere... And actually the 2012 Grassroots Festival (I'm a big Donna The Buffalo fan & they pretty much steer that show) is taking place July 19-22 right before this...sooooo it's even more intense than the 8 shows in 14 days with Wilco...and my friends The Hi-Risers have a record release show at 11 pm on Aug. 3rd & are playing on the beach at my fave local venue on Aug. 5th....whirlwind few weeks that is going to be for sure!

Correction...Make that 8 shows, & in 14 days no less...whew! 1) Camden, N.J.- July 21st 2) Brooklyn, N.Y.- July 23rd 3) Brooklyn, N.Y.- July 24th 4) Manhattan, N.Y.- July 25th 5) Cooperstown, N.Y.- July 28th 6) North Adams/Mass MoCA- July 31st 7) Hartford, CT- August 1st 8) Rochester, N.Y.- August 3rd

Thrilled this is actually happening!!

Meet another...I absolutely love the extra tracks from these sessions (though "Let's Not Get Carried Away" is probably my least fave), & I'm crazy about the whole soul groove that comes out on so many of the tracks from that period!!

I've mentioned all of this before, but here it goes again...don't think they've ever released anything less than great albums (one of the rare, & longest such streaks in modern music)...also...while I love them all, if forced to choose (& fave is usually whatever I'm listening to at the time & lately lots of "Summerteeth" actually), I'd go with "The Whole Love" as my fave, "Sky Blue Sky" as rounding out my top three &, get this, "Wilco (The Album)" as my second favorite album of theirs. Of the stats for the 2012 tour, they've just played slightly less of "A.M.", but "Wilco (The

WOW!! I truly wish this was the case...but...my bet is that the date fell through after the shirts went to the printer. It'd be pretty weird for another NYC date to be announced this late...but...you never know. Nothing on the Terminal 5 website, nor the Wilco one.

I feel the same way about "A Love For You"...heard before this, but still can't fathom how it wasn't included on the original album...this whole package is just fantastic!

Just got this in my email today from the good folks at MassMoCA...If anyone needs/wants a ticket, I got a membership so I could go without having to bid for a ticket, so I'd be glad to get anyone who needs one a ticket...don't know the price, but PM me here, or email me at "HareDurga@yahoo.com" (& get me your phone number for quickest results), & I'll do my best for you!! "A few more Wilco tickets have been released Did you miss your chance to buy tickets to the July 31st Wilco benefit? Did you want to bring some friends but could only purchase two tix? No worries, your problem is
