Going to the Metro show on Monday but was wondering if anyone has a +1 for the XRT pop up show starting at 4. Tried both days, listened to a real radio, and still struck out. I’ll be at Metro early Monday anyways so why not try to see two Wilco sets in the same day! I’ll buy you a beer if that entices the offer! Let me know and thanks so much in advance!! 

How much?

Let me know if you have a pair for tonight! Thanks in advance! 

Besides the 7" and the nightly poster, how's the merch looking for these shows? Definitely going to be heading to the Foxtrot pop up to snag some goodies.

How much and where are the tickets located?

Yes, let me know if you want them. 

Pm'd back. 

Are these still available?

Looking for a pair of seats to the show on 8/28 in Chicago! My birthday is 8/20 and my girlfriend would love to buy me a pair so her and I can go. PM me if you have anything available! Thanks so much in advance! 

Would have liked a little more variety in the set list last night, but pretty good when the two “new” songs are Monday and Spiders!

Couldn't agree more. Really thought there was going to be a shakeup in the set but alas, it was the same outside of these two great songs. 

Not sure if you guys feel the same way, but I thought last night's show was the best out of the three so far! The row behind me had their talkers, but it wasn't as annoying as the previous nights. Two rows ahead of me, some guy literally passed out. Probably drank too much or maybe just can't handle three nights of Winterlude, but he literally was asleep for more than half of the show. The band sounded super locked in and I just overall had a really great night! Can't wait to see what's in store for the final one tonight! 

Great meeting you and sitting next to you yesterday, man! Sorry if I seemed kind of out of it, the three shows on top of not getting much sleep over the past few nights will do that. I promise the next time our paths cross, I'll be more upbeat! I definitely agree with you in a lot of what you've brought up here. Nothing compares to seeing this band in a smaller setting. Those Riv and smaller residency shows (even though we froze waiting outside for doors) were so much better than these last two at the Chicago Theatre. Not that they haven't been great, the band still brings it every night and it's an amazing time, but something's missing. Hopefully they'll see that and the next Winterlude will be in a smaller setting? The constant yapping by people also seems to be at an all time high these past two shows. I've tried giving my stares to people so they'll shut up, but they don't seem to be working. Can't wait to see what nights three and four have in store! 

Have tics to the first night, but now really want to go to night 3 or 4 as well because of SVE. 

Was able to snag 4R, Row EE, Seat 406 for night 1. Probably will play the secondary market game or see if something decent pops up for night 4 closer to the show. 

Been trying since 10. Kept getting the messages that either "another fan beat me to it" or "Ticketmaster can't process my request on this device" for whatever reason? Only going for Double letter or pit seats. Really wish they didn't use a TM venue and went back to the Riviera but that's just my opinion. I guess I'll try again tomorrow in the XRT pre sale, but if it didn't work today, can't imagine tomorrow will be any better... 

Looking for one ticket to Jeff's gig on Saturday. Let me know if you have one for sale! Thanks in advance! 

Someone I follow on Instagram is still there. Looks like they've played "Summer Noon" and "California Stars". Not sure about anything else?

Damn, I left after the first set and am already back home. Oh well, it was awesome to hear songs off Warm for the first time live! 

He’s at the Hideout tonight for those in chicago. Four people in line including me. Handing out wristbands at 4

Got section 239, row 1, seat 15 for the Friday show in yesterday's pre-sale. I've only been to one show at Soldier Field and was on the floor, so I'm not entirely sure of the sight line I'll have. Looked online and it looks pretty decent and it was in my price range so I grabbed it. 

Will this be something that can be attended by the public or is this a private event and will only be streamed online? Been looking since it was announced and haven't been able to come up with any info. 

I'll be there on Saturday, but if someone could post pics of the posters for each night, that would be awesome! 

I got 4 in the 4th row for Saturday night.  The Chicago Theater is beautiful and the sound is great, but I'm not a fan of seeing shows there.  Despite my age, I prefer to get to a venue early, stand and get as close as possible to the stage.

I could not agree more with this statement! 

So what's the consensus, do we think when all three shows sell out tomorrow, that they'll add more dates? I'm thinking yes. 

Got one for Saturday! Section 4R, Row NN, Seat 402

This will be my first Wilco show as a Chicago resident (been a fan since I knew what music was)!

 

Question: Is it worth going to all three nights? Will they play enough different tunes? 

Every Wilco show is an awesome time, regardless if they play different tunes or not. Went to Madison and Chicago this past summer and for the most part, it was the same setlist. Still had a blast both times! I went to two shows last Winterlude in 2014 and they were both different sets. I would imagine, they will play completely different sets each night.
