  1. Crap! I missed it...what song was that on? the show got archived... On this Hangout Festival video the rainbow SG comes in on "I'm The Man Who Loves You" at 57:30 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdfDAN-zrdk They may be abbreviated sets because of the schedule of the concert line-ups...we'll find out when the official website posts the setlist...but I was a bit surprised myself...
  2. Catching what I can at work (REALLY wish that had been announced earlier, so I could have planned for it)... This is what I've got so far for the set list...anything I missed?... 1- Poor Places 2- Art Of Almost 3- I Might 4- At Least That's What You Said 5- Spiders (Kidsmoke) (acoustic arrangement) 6- Impossible Germany 7- Born Alone 8- Laminated Cat (Not For The Season) 9- How To Fight Loneliness 10- Whole Love 11- Too Far Apart 12- I'm Always In Love 13- Jesus Etc. 14- I'm The Man Who Loves You 15- Dawned On Me 16- A Shot In The Arm and apparently no encores?
  3. For the record, I cannot imagine this happening...and if I did, I'd go, of course, but seeing one gig would be fine. I'd like to see them bury the hatchet & do a show or something, but a tour?!? I highly doubt this. And I'm way more excited about what Wilco is doing. I dug Uncle Tupelo, but I absolutely nuts for Wilco!!
  4. Clearly I need to spend more time checking Via Chicago...rats!! Missed it...hoped it gets archived & were able to see it again or play it back...
  5. Thanks! Very exciting stuff! I stayed up to see if anyone would post a setlist...read a brief piece today where John mentioned they'd choose a setlist from a repertoire of about 70 songs...think it's larger via looking at how many different songs they actually do perform during any given year/tour...but anyhow...yeah, blast off...and so here we a-go-go!!
  6. I'd say the release of the 8 bonus tracks on Record Store Day did nothing but revive interest & deepen an already stellar reputation. I think it's as brilliant, if not the most brilliant, live album ever. I know when lots of folks were recommending Wilco to me, they'd point to this album as the best starting point.
  7. Thanks for the idea of mentioning the detail of how many shows this makes for you. I'm curious as to which tours you saw them on, & how many times each tour?
  8. Wa-Hooooo! All Hail Kong, King Of The 2012 Tour Dates!! Note the variation of locations (New England, to Virginia, to Colorado, & Florida)...North, South, East & West...most miles logged, widest variation of dates chronologically as well as geographically, & the biggest enchilada- most gigs gone to, with 9!!! And note that that includes two double shows/two nighters with Wolf Trap & Red Rocks & also a three nights/3 shows in a row run 7/17-19!! I say go for the two night stand in NYC & break double digits!! And I must ask why no Miami Beach on 5/15, when you're going t
  9. Personally, for me it'll be... 1) Camden, N.J.- July 21st 2) Brooklyn, N.Y.- July 23rd 3) Brooklyn, N.Y.- July 24th 4) Cooperstown, N.Y.- July 28th 5) North Adams/Mass MoCA- July 31st 6) Hartford, CT- August 1st 7) Rochester, N.Y.- August 3rd I saw someone else did this, so now (I'm adding this the day after my original post), I'd ask what # shows these are for you? Nice if you can add the details of which tour, how many times a tour & if you can that far- the locations for the shows...for some this could be a rather long & detailed list...as one person has already mentioned that t
  10. A few heads up issues on this... #1) This show is in locke456's roadcase rips already. It's the 4th from the bottom (with the Letterman Show, & the two ACL's from '07 & '12 being below it)...he grabbed it when it was available via the facebook page- see #2...go get it, it's great! #2) For some reason this was only available through facebook for awhile. But it's been up previously via facebook, just not on the official website yet. I only listened to it once, but yeah, it's a great setlist & a great show!! #3) It's not 1-30-12, it's from 1-24-12, & that's how it was listed
  11. Drove 1 & 1/2 hours round trip to get my closest TM terminal in an independent record store. Tickets wouldn't come up, & this has happened twice to me this month now, because- although it shows the tickets as being on sale at the terminal they aren't & then they just don't show up...and sadly the folks at the store can't do anything about it. They were totally pissed off...it even showed up as available as they repeatedly tried to get tickets & came up with nothing being released. Ticketmaster was matter of fact & unapologetic while they admitted that it was announced that
  12. It turns out there IS a venue presale...but...I called the venue folks & they said there were only 100 tickets for each show for venue presale & that you had to join some "friends of the park" type thing, at $50 minimum, to get the code...hasn't been leaked elsewhere & for $50, I'll take my chances tomorrow. You can PM me if you'd like. I know a GREAT old school independent music store (records & instruments) & they have a ticketmaster outlet & I'll be there with cash (which makes things go faster) to get tickets to both shows tomorrow & I'd be glad to pick up for y
  13. The "veune" pre-sale is now listed as an American Express presale, which will only work if you have an American Express card...though I did find one listing online claiming this about the password... "You can use this presale codes and information to get tickets: 8005253355 or AMEX – an American Express Card is required" Here's the source: http://www.tmpresale.com/2012/05/03/wilcos-show-in-brooklyn-ny-presale-code.html Here's another page from the same folks about American Express Presales, including how & where to get a card fast... http://www.tmpresale.com/2007/08/27/american-express-pre
  14. Got shut out myself. Man were those things ever gone fast. Onto Friday!!
  15. If you do, see if you can get me in the group rate. My tale for this year... ~ Part1) Don't know how close they're coming...so we get tickets for Camden July 21st. ~Parts 2 & 3) Then we've got close by Rochester Aug. 3rd (30 min.) & Cooperstown July 28th (3 hours) ~Parts 4 & 5) My old Bass player & his wife are Mass-MoCA members & we're meeting in Cooperstown & with 1,000 seater, & their insistence that I have to see them there- because it's just the best, I'm in for North Adams (July 31st), but since I'm going I figure, friends in New Haven I haven't seen in ag

    What If

    Yeah "A Ghost Is Born" certainly wouldn't have been as it is... I wonder if they would have mined that huge reservoir of unreleased material that the YHF sessions produced. Incredible songs. The finished YHF certainly has it's own unique vibe to it, but...song wise the unused stuff stands up with the material on YHF & it would have been interesting to see where they might have got taken to.
  17. Thanks again sooooooooooooooo much!! You ROCK!!
  18. This was my one purchase today at Record Store Day. Even though it's only like an EP's worth of out & out Wilco (5 songs with them in front), albeit with them as the back-up band on 4 songs too...& for my taste it's pretty Billy Bragg heavy, it's still great to have anything new, or previously unreleased coming out. I also have to say that I think there are a half dozen great Billy Bragg songs spread over Volumes I & II, I have to be honest & say that I could easily find 5 Billy Bragg songs that I would drop & replace with the 5 Wilco songs here....but I get that there had
  19. I'm seeing 5 shows this tour already...but this is tempting me....5 & 1/2 hours away, friends to stay with in Baltimore (who I'd love to see & go to the shows with)...must...stop...somehow....Hi, my name is John & I have a Wilco problem ....Don't think I can do this one...really...but soooo tempting....
  20. Wilco are coming to Hollywood Bowl on 09/30/12. Tix on-sale Saturday May 5th. http://wilcoworld.net/tour_date_type/30-september-2012-hollywood-bowl-los-angeles-ca/
  21. I really hope it works out for you!!! When I found out that they were taking a certain amount of lower bids & only so many tickets (1000-# of pre-sales), I decided to take the chance out of it & ponied up for a membership & pre-sale ticket (especially since both are tax deductible & it's a great cause) ...An Bass player friend & his wife are members & are going (as well as meeting me in Cooperstown too) & I also justified it by figuring this would lead me to go to Hartford as well (in for a penny, in for a pound)....and it did. I know a few folks who are waiting it
  22. Congrats it's on Ticketmaster before the official Wilco announcement...outdoors...probably general admission then... Soooooooooo...here's you link, but keep your eyes & ears peeled on the official Wilco website for pre-sale info... http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0500488BEFFED0B8?artistid=773505&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=1 Wilco (904) Lifestyle Communities Pavilion Columbus, OH Sat, Aug 4, 2012 06:30 PM Onsale to General Public Start: Fri, 04/20/12 10:00 AM EDT US $45.00 US $45.00 Ticket + US $8.85 Fees = US $53.85
  23. From Wilco on facebook, earlier today...and apparently, congratulations are in order for you folks in Ohio...come on Cleveland & I'm in (Columbus is over 6 hours & I'm going to 5 shows already...but Cleveland, that's less than 4 hours- not much more than Toronto & no border madness & delays there)... Wilco Hello, Columbus. We'll have something for you tomorrow....
