Wilc Os

The collection of songs on this EP is the closest to chaotic that Wilco has come for a long time. I think the winning cover is well suited to the music contained within.

Dang I hope you're wrong, I'm really looking forward to this one for this year. My feelings were that it would be released just in time for the "boosted" retail sales leading up to the holiday period (Thanksgiving onwards). Nov 29th being the day after Thanksgiving. But with each passing week and no sign of a pre-order I too am beginning to doubt my hopeful guesses...

On the topic of Hot Sun cover art, did anyone else here have a go at the DIY of it? Thanks to @kidsmoke I have a copy right over the other side of the planet. My DIY effort pales in comparative joy to that of the winners entry though...

Official winner of the cover art for Hot Sun Cool Shroud has been announced today. Winner was an adorable young girl named Clementine who was interviewed by Jeff, which was posted to social media yesterday. I hope she sees some royalties from her efforts, her work is bound to increase sales!

Can’t wait to hear this ep! Anyone here going to Solid Sound and want to pick me up a vinyl copy? I know it’s wishful thinking but thought it’d be worth a shot…

After all the FOMO I managed to purchase a copy online from Red Eye Records in Sydney yesterday. It will probably take a week or so to get here though. Reports online are that it’s a well done reissue and sounds great. Really looking forward to getting this on my turntable.

Thanks so much for the offer, I’ll let you know how it goes. It seems like online on Monday is my only other hope. It’s 7am Saturday here right now and I’m usually in line for RSD, this year the Wilco release was all I wanted so I’m drinking coffee and eating breakfast instead. We may have met in Melbourne, I was in the first 5 people of the queue at the venue for the last 2 nights of the Melb dates. I met so many great people I’m struggling to retain all the names! Have a great weekend.

I've just had the worst RSD day news in a long time; The Whole Love Expanded LP has zero copies sent out to New Zealand (where I live). Not a single copy of the 4500 has reached these shores. I guess I won't be queuing up early on Saturday morning after all. I was looking forward to this so much and am majorly disappointed. This on the back of Wilco not including New Zealand on their recent tour "Down Under" (Which I travelled to Australia to catch). It feels like Wilco has abandoned our little country - And its fans here (although I know this is a label distribution decision, and not a W

Thanks! I’m just working through the site navigation, maybe I need to post an “ISO” listing to widen my net on this? There’s a lot of great Wilco content here!!

I’m new to Via Chicago forum and am very happy to be here! I got a box of Wilc-O’s cereal and the Foxtrot x Wilco tee shirt sent all the way to New Zealand! The cereal box (unopened) sits on the shelf above my turntable, right next to my Oxford Pennants “Turn Up The Wilco” camp flag. I couldn’t get the Jesus Don’t Cry beer sent due to local customs restrictions. If anyone here has an empty can of this beer that they’d be willing to send to me (at my cost), please reach out, I’d be extremely grateful, and it’d look great on my turntable shelf!

Great review @bebop! This was my first ever Wilco show, and I travelled from New Zealand especially for it. I’ve been waiting soooo long for Wilco to come to New Zealand and figured this would be as close as they’d get for the foreseeable future. I lined up early and was at the railing right in front of Jeff. For those there I was the “active” one (at least those near made that comment to me after the show). The show exceeded my expectations by quite a margin, and it was great to know I was there with the biggest fans (as this was the original Melbourne show before more were added after it sol

I too flew over from NZ, for two of the Melbourne shows. Are you the person I met from Dunedin at the front of The Forum wait queue perhaps? Wish I could have made it to more shows but the two I saw were absolutely worth the cost and effort of travelling!!
