Both of the Tweedy shows (Roadcase #34&35) sound excellent.  So if you enjoyed the Tweedy record and a bit of Jeff solo in the middle, then either show would be a good choice.  If you want to do for sheer diversity then either the Winterlude Chciago bundle or the Port Chester bundle is well worth the money.  I've also been listening to the Solid Sound Wilco full acoustic set (Roadcase #47) a lot recently.  

Thanks! I've got #47. Pretty cool. I've heard an audience tape of the Notorious Wilco Bros. show & that is pretty good too.

 

If your finances can swing it, go for one of the multi-night runs. Like last October's Portchester 3 night run. 90 different songs or something like that.

Thanks!

I just bought my first download from the band. The Marymoor Park show because I went to it & it was a really great show. Very Nels-centric (thanks Doug). The quality of the recording is outstanding. Anybody have any recommendations of other shows that the band is selling? @ $9 a pop sadly have to be a little picky but want to get some more. Thanks 

This show is available to download in the Wilcoworld store. Sounds excellent! "Sunken Treasure" is amazing.

He might tell you differently, since he was actually trying to tune his Jazzmaster *during* the solo and eventually just had to switch it out. He also had to do the same on Via Chicago one song earlier.

 

That said, it did seem like a longer-than-usual solo on IG and I'm always amazed by Nels' ability to add something new almost every night.

I caught the tuning thing. I just thought that it added something really cool & different to the song. Some new places. I could see Jeff & Pat watching him & they seemed amazed. I generally like live music more because for me the interesting stuff comes out of problems. I'm might get killed for this here but I've heard (particularly later versions) "Impossible" kind of remind me of "Hotel California" in some ways. Not necessarily a bad thing but Tuesday was way more interesting. I've been into Wilco a real long time & seen them a lot. Probably 1 of my 3 favorite band/performers. The other 2 being Flaming Lips & Neil Finn. I was in the music biz for 25 years & was looking through my cds. Found advance copies of both "AM" & "Being There". Liked them plenty back then but I really turned hardcore with "Summerteeth". Kind of shy, so just have started posting here. The show Tuesday wasn't the best I've seen the band but it was right up there. Nels blows me away. In some ways he reminds me of Jeff Beck (if Beck had come up via punk rock). That is very high praise! I would put "Handshake" through "Sunken" Tuesday up against anything I have ever seen live in hundreds of concerts. I really enjoyed the show. PS: the advance cd of "AM" has xerox artwork & "Being There" is in a kind of generic cardboard sleeve. Glad I still have them! 

Nels Cline was unreal good. Maybe best "Impossible Germany" I've ever heard.

My friend bailed out on me & I have an extra reserved seat ticket. Hoping to get the $60 I paid for it (I'll eat the service charge). Would have to meet at the show, as the tickets will be at will call. Row 24, Section B on the aisle. Please contact me at crholmstrom7@gmail.com. Am looking forward to the show!

ticket is sold. was able to help a fan in town on business looking for a single. its all good!
