It doesn’t look the same as say the recent Wilco deluxe editions that had fully formed songs. These look like demos where they’re tinkering around in the studio just based off of the titles. Maybe there are a few in there that will be memorable, but I can see myself playing it only once. It’s an interesting look into the process, but not something that has repeat quality for me. I’d much rather get songs that didn’t make the album. I wish that Road Movie was extended for this release. It’ll be nice to have a Blu-ray though. I also had the VHS release. And you’re right. It did have some sort o

Monster 25th Anniversary details. Available Friday November 1st. A five-CD, one-Blu-ray deluxe box set will include the original album, a special 2019 remix from Monster producer Scott Litt, a CD of previously unreleased demos from the album and a complete live 1995 performance captured in Chicago. The accompanying Blu-ray will offer Monster in both hi-resolution audio and 5.1 Surround Sound, as well as a host of video content: the 90-minute film Road Movie, which documents R.E.M.’s 1995 tour, and all six music videos from Monster. The collection will be packaged in a five-and-a-half-inch p

Nice!!! I was worried about not getting setlists for the upcoming European tour. #FirstWorldProblems.

The young girl in Don’t Let Go has a dog named Wilco. The film was directed by Jacob Aaron Estes who also directed Mean Creek which featured Pot Kettle Black. She calls out for him quite a few times, so I know it wasn’t my imagination.

R.E.M. is name dropped in Pavement’s Unseen Power Of The Picket Fence & The National’s Not In Kansas. Not only is the band name dropped, but so are some of their songs. Well, just one song is mentioned in The National song.

When I saw Squeeze last Monday, they had no opener. They were excellent, but didn’t put on a longer show than normal because of the no opener. Roughly 1 hour & 45 minutes. They’ve had some decent openers on this tour: KT Tunstall, X, The Mavericks and Marshall Crenshaw. Damn! Just looking at the setlist now. You got Another Nail In My Heart. Well, it does look like their set is a tad bit shorter now by like 2 songs being cut. They’ve also tinkered with the order a bit. Sounds like a cool venue that you went to.

Ah! I just checked the THING schedule to see how long the performance would be and noticed that he was on stage at 7:30pm, so that explains it. Good catch!

https://www.kexp.org/events/thing-fest/ Click on Jeff’s name to bring you to the YouTube link. 5pm Pacific. 8pm Eastern. I don’t think we’ve ever had a webcast for a show on Jeff’s birthday. Edit: As The Cowboy Poet explained, this is not from the actual THING fest, since Jeff’s set will be at 7:30pm Pacific. It looks like this will be a webcast of a set recorded at Rainshadow Recording studios also out in Washington state.

New article about new album where Jeff discusses Bright Leaves, Citizens and Glenn. Thanks to Diane for posting this on the FB page. This didn’t come up for me today, when I did a Google news search. https://www.kexp.org/read/2019/8/21/jeff-tweedy-staying-unique-accepting-joy-and-new-wilco-album-ode-joy/?fbclid=IwAR06TNaAql0gDBllJ6JW_iVIsD1uM_IUywW9qw5u7aWrJFDd3ZwVK6ABQYw

Wikipedia lists the run time as 45:40. I’ve seen the track lengths somewhere else about a month ago. I have no idea where though, but it’s been around since at least mid-July. I agree with you about The National record. I skip over the choral tracks.

Let us discuss the lengths of these new songs that we haven’t heard.

Squeeze at Tupelo Music Hall in Derry, NH. They were just here this past Thursday with a sold out show which I missed out on. They announced a 2nd show on Thursday August 8th with tickets going on sale the day after at 6am. I’ve never seen a second show added that late. And I’ve never seen tickets going on sale at 6am.

Nice find! I used Google Translate and track 12 is listed as To Be Determined.

One of the questions that I asked was will there be an opener for the fall shows, since the showtime was listed as 7:30pm for both Boston shows. The openers for the October shows have been announced. Nothing has been announced for November. I can’t upload the pic because I’m on my iPhone, but you can find it on the Wilco FB page. Daughter Of Swords - both Boston & NYC shows. Soccer Mommy - DC, Cary, Atlanta, Birmingham, & Nashville. Molly Sarle - Tulsa, Irving, Houston, & both Austin shows.

This show is now available as a Roadcase. https://wilcostore.com/collections/roadcase/products/roadcase-75-june-6-2019-knoxville-tn

Jesus, Etc. at Buffalo Wild Wings in Portsmouth, NH. Not my first choice for food, but most things close up early on a Monday night round these parts.

I’ll be seeing it in a few minutes.

That’s exactly what I meant. Imagine if in some parallel universe the tour dates in Sept & Oct were flipped, so that you have the U.S. shows first. I’m sure if that were the case a lot of people would be upset that the album came out after they saw them. And I mean that it seems like we have more people posting here from the states. So leaking or streaming the album on the official site makes a lot of sense to make fans familiar with the new tunes. I can’t think of the last time Wilco had a tour where it was called by the new album title, but said new album didn’t drop until a month into t

I think they’ll drop the whole record before August is over. I can’t picture them playing Europe for a whole month with the record under wraps. I love the new song. It does remind me of the song in Raising Arizona that Holly Hunter sings to Nathan, Jr. All 3 that I’ve heard are quite amazing! I recall The Whole Love being leaked over Labor Day weekend.

I’ve only seen the screenshot of the countdown clock. I’ve watched the video twice and can’t see anything. I hear sound though. It has to be new album related or an announcement. Maybe a single. It is odd that it mentions the WilcoWorld signup page for their mailing list. Someone over at FB said the new album might be titled The Garden. Not sure if they got that from Tom Schick.

One of the distinguished VC members posted over at the Wilco FB fanpage that he stood next to the guy that takes care of the Wilco Roadcases at one of this summer’s biggest tours. That guy said to expect them when the new album drops. I took that to mean either a.) September or b.) sometime soon with a surprise album drop like Star Wars. At this point either way could be possible. It’s been a bit over a month since the come back shows in TN & they haven’t had a Roadcase yet. Maybe they won’t.

Thank you! My second cousin died on a Saturday night. I was pretty sure that the wake would never be the same night as The Cure film, but I think they had to delay it to allow out of town family to fly in. Glad I never bought a ticket. I’m guessing October for the Blu-ray. Where are you where they had this film on a Sunday evening? I checked around New England and all of the showings were on Thursday evening.

NYCTaper just put up this show on their website. It sounds amazing!

I had a death in my family and I wasn’t able to go because the wake ended up being the same night. I was hoping that it would be shown again this weekend. I need to look up when this will come to Blu-ray.

^ Cool! I remember the clever sleuths found the album & song titles on some page where songwriters get credit for their published works. The name of the site escapes me. I think I took a few screencaps. Edited: it’s interesting to note that around this time in 2015 Star Wars dropped. Pretty sure it was a Thursday night. July 16th it dropped. Someone also mentioned on the FB page that Mojo magazine said that they’d be reviewing new Wilco next month.
