  1. I swore off DAR for literally the past four years and ended up getting third row WEEN tickets there a month or so back, so I went and the sound was actually pretty awesome. They may have finally figured things out for that place with the sound, but it's still an awful place for a rock show.

     

    Seats, no booze, lack of energy, blah blah...

  2. Yeah, the Sonic Youth/Wilco show was definitely pretty bad.

     

    Unfortunately, in DC bands on the cusp of playing a bigger venue than the 930 have to head to DAR which is a god awful place for a rock show.

  3. I'm going to get flamed, but that was a snoozer of a show for anyone that was at Tuesday night, which ABSOLUTEY ripped by the way.

     

    I mean come on guys, you've just dusted off your ENTIRE catalog and you play nearly 2/3rds repeats from the night before.

     

    Pretty lame if you ask me.

  4. For sure....how many of you do something completely new at your job every day of the week? Do you give different answers to the same questions you are asked on the phone, etc. I didn't think so.

     

    No performer creates an entirely new act for each performance, they just don't: not Dylan, not the Stones and not Wilco. If you are tired of the act, go see a new group you haven't checked out before. If you like Wilco expect to see a similar act each time. Or go see Jeff's old bandmate Jay Farrar sing songs that all sound the same. At least with Wilco you get distinct songs that you can identify.

    I'm not asking them to play their songs different, I'm saying play the other 30 to 40 songs in your catalog minus the same 20.

     

    That's it.

  5. The same old songs being played for pretty much the past 4 years now??

     

    I mean, come on, Wilco has such an extensive catalog and we're constantly bombarded with the same 15-20 tunes show after show after show.

     

    Wilco has put on some of the best shows I've seen in recent years and since I'm a sucker, I continue to see them every time they come around, but I'm very tired of the tunes.

     

    Don't flame me too hard for this. :punch
