  1. Yep, I second that! I miss the days when Nugs would drop a new show every month, instead of the quarterly release plan that they’ve gone with. We won’t see another show again until the last day of November. Seems far, far away.
  2. September 6, 1998 - Promenade Park in Toledo, OH is the latest show. interesting to note that Casino Queen appears twice. I can’t see the show notes, so I’m not sure what happened there. According to Setlist FM, Casino Queen was only played once. edited to add info: Wilco’s FB post pointed out that they played Casino Queen twice at this festival show. Another dent in Setlist FM’s accuracy. 🙈
  3. Happy Birthday, bbop!! in honor of your solid reportage, I decided to take a few liberties for some laughs…or truths.
  4. I’d hate to say this, but I was happy to see that their tour was postponed for selfish reasons. I’ve been dealing with sciatica and have been keeping things in close proximity, so I would’ve missed the Boston show in a few weeks. That being said, I do have a suspicious mind and fear that the tour will end up being cancelled. I can’t blame them purely based on the financial losses that it would incur. quick story time to tie it all together: The Boston concert scene has changed a lot recently. We have 2 new small venues that just opened. The MGM Fenway which holds 5,000 and the Ro
  5. Do you like pictures of people tailgating? If so, I have the post for you! All kidding aside, here are over 200 pictures of this day, per the venue’s FB page. I’d say 95% of the pics are people tailgating. Maybe you might see yourself. I promise you that there are nice pics of Mt. Joy and Wilco. Just hang in there till the end. 🥸😉 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0345Ec1ZFvAAte2gQZBjcMBY3N8bzBdx6bpKP8LwaX2VcGS4tbvkW6uYmSf8sqauZ4l&id=102791396298
  6. There is conflicting information. WilcoWorld lists Wilco hitting the stage @9pm. Bank of NH lists Wilco hitting the stage @8:30pm. I haven’t seen a show on this tour, but I’ve noticed the earliest that I’ve seen pics & setlist info up on the FB group has been around 10:30ish/10:45ish for the East Coast shows. But yeah, I’d say they’ve been probably playing shows clocking in at 2 hours. WilcoWorld has been a great resource for set times, etc. here is the evidence…lol
  7. There is conflicting information. WilcoWorld lists Wilco hitting the stage @9pm. Bank of NH lists Wilco hitting the stage @8:30pm. I’d say that it’d be closer to 8:30. I can’t picture Mt. Joy coming on right at 7 & off at 7:30 and waiting 90 minutes for Wilco. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’ve never been there, so I’m not sure when the curfew is. Edited for traffic info: I’ve heard that the main road off of the highway (Routes 11 & 11B) is a huge clusterfuck of traffic, so best of luck.

  9. The Tweedy Show Friday July 8 Episode 214 -- Jeff welcomes the clients to The Tweedy Show. -- Susie says that it's been a long time since we've seen each other. She mentions that it's episode 214. -- Susie explains that Spencer & Casey have Covid. She says that Spencer took 90 Covid tests and tested positive on the 91st test. Spencer explains that he is in the 10th day, but still wants to wear a mask for safety precautions. -- Jeff addresses his hip issues that he talked about in a recent Chit-Chat Check-In. He says that he is doing fine today. He also talks about the story he
  10. Probably not a secret any longer, but The Tweedy Show returns this evening at 9pm CST. Can you believe it?
  11. Thank you for posting this! I took a brief look at the lyrics to see if anything else was performed on The Tweedy Show. I think “It’s Hard To Get Over Being Used” is The Plains. That one was performed a couple of times, most notably on one of the tour bus episodes. I’m also looking forward to some French horn on a few of the new tunes.
  12. I don’t think it gets updated until a day or two before the festival begins.
  13. Yep, the app sent out notifications in real time for the Pop Ups. And there were several TV screens in the main building near the cafe/elevator that had all of the social media posts.
  14. Stumbled upon what I believe is the first review…. https://americana-uk.com/wilco-cruel-country spoiler alert (🥸): there are a lot of song instrumentation descriptions, especially ones that haven’t been played on The Tweedy Show.
  15. It is with a heavy heart to announce this here, but we lost a fellow VC member and huge Wilco fan. Dave Mirabella was a huge Wilco fan and one of the first members of the fan community that I had the pleasure of meeting. Paul Suwan being the other one. This was at the Jeff Tweedy solo show in Northampton, MA Nov 2005. He was very prominent in the Boston music scene as the frontman of The Rationales. Wow! I’m just stunned. He was performing covers during the pandemic via Facebook and taking requests. I know that he was at the Wilco show in Boston last summer becau
  16. Oh, it’s extremely possible. There were a lot of songs that didn’t have any titles at all and any of them could be on Cruel Country. Or any song that Jeff titled on the show could have changed names by now. I’ll have to sift through them and look at the song titles that aren’t accounted for to see if any words or phrases pop out, when I listen to them. Tunnel At The End Of The Light is another one that was great, but doesn’t appear to be on the new record. Not familiar enough with it to think of other wordings that it could be named under. Yeah, Sunlight’s End was
  17. There are quite a few more songs out there, but I don’t think anyone has extracted them from their episode to make a YouTube video. I Am My Mother (episode 206) All Across The World (episodes 169/179) Tired Of Taking It Out On You (episode 213: Live At Largo) The Universe (episodes 154/170/196: Live At Mass MoCa) [Paul Suwan said that this song was titled Say It Plain at the time of the Mass MoCa performance, according to the printed setlist.] edit: David Handelman pointed out to me that I had All Across The World listed as In The Hurricane’s Eye on my epis
  18. Here’s the track list & awesome artwork, according to iTunes. 😍
  19. I guess that seems 99.9% possible, but you never know. Yeah, it seems like that’s an appetizer to hold us over until the deluxe editions are released.
  20. https://wilcostore.com/collections/vinyl/products/yhf-alternate-take-vinyl-lp It’s possible that this got lost in the YHF madness today, but the Alternate Take 7 inch is up in the store: I’m The Man Who Loves You/War On War.
  21. I wonder if we’ll get the extended vinyl version of Pot Kettle Black on digital or cd. I believe One Sunday Morning is the only other song in their discography that has an extended vinyl version.
  22. Did the YHF vinyl that Colbert had in his hands look different to you? It looked like it was grey, but with no album title on it.
  23. I missed it too, but Colbert just announced that the special edition of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot will be released on September 16th. 😃👍👍 The unexpected announcement came right after their amazing performance on his show. Should be up on YouTube relatively soon.
  24. Heads up to the tapers that frequent here and might attend a YHF show: a potential taper with recording gear over in the FB group was told that “audio taping privileges have been rescinded” for this special run of shows. Good news is that it sounds like something might get released.
  25. Just a heads up: anyone out there seeing the discounted subscriber’s price only on the Nugs site and not on the app? I’m definitely logged in on the app because I’m playing one of their shows. I tried clicking the price on the app and it still showed the $24.99 price. It looks like it was going to do the purchase via iTunes. I feel like this was an issue back when the drive in shows were done.
