You should go see Rhett Miller and the Serial Lady Killers at Park West on Friday night and Liam Finn and Eliza Jane Barnes at Schuba's on Saturday night.

Just wanted to let you know I stopped by yesterday. Really nice space you guys have -- the Uncle Tupelo handbill in the restroom foyer is a nice touch (as are, of course, the Wilco posters in the main space). The kids working when I was there were very nice. Anyway, good luck to you guys! P.S. I also had a "Kingpin" and got a "She's A Jar" to go.

Here were the setlists, as played, for Wilco and Liam and EJ on night 2 at Massey: Wilco —"The Price Is Right" theme music intro— Bull Black Nova You Are My Face One Wing IATTBYH Kamera At Least That's What You Said Radio Cure Impossible Germany Country Disappeared Handshake Drugs Deeper Down Jesus, etc. (crowd singalong) Sonny Feeling Hate It Here Walken I'm The Man Who Loves You Hummingbird --------------- Wilco (the song) Misunderstood California Stars (w/Liam Finn on acoustic guitar and vox and Eliza Jane Barnes on shaker and vox) You and I (w/Leslie Feist on vox) Kingpin Casino Queen I'

Hey bobbob, did you read my post? Honestly, I feel pretty good saying this on behalf of Jeff that he could care less that she was drinking out of a flask. He was not, I REPEAT NOT, judging her for drinking out of a flask or otherwise! But he was letting her know that she was flaunting the rules, first by videotaping and then by using the flask, and that he could very well see it!

I just have to say that this thread (not to mention some of the other ones in Just A Fan) is getting a bit ridiculous. I can't believe that people are focusing on this sort of stuff rather than the music at this show. I mean, they essentially debuted Country Disappeared and played a Big Star song with Big Star's drummer for God's sake! Honestly, I don't really think Jeff cares what people do or don't consume/inhale/whatever at shows. And he knows that he can't win the camera/video battle either, as he basically said at this show. But he figures he'll ask nicely and make his feelings known an

Looks like they will be in NYC on Oct. 23, so I just bought a ticket. Thanks for the reviews, all! Looking forward to experiencing it for myself.

Yeah, quite a night in Memphis. The crowd up front was, um, interesting, to say the least. But the musical highlights were pretty amazing... I'm sure there will be plenty of discussion about this one, so for now I'll just post the setlists as played: Wilco: —"The Price Is Right" theme music intro— Wilco (the song) A Shot in the Arm Bull Black Nova You Are My Face IATTBYH> One Wing At Least That's What You Said Deeper Down Impossible Germany Country Disappeared Handshake Drugs Sonny Feeling Jesus, etc. Can't Stand It Hate It Here Walken I'm The Man Who Loves You ------------------ Misu

I dunno...It kind of seemed like that might be becoming part of their set now. And of all shows to decide not to bring my camera! Well, at least I sort of helped broker the shirt exchange when Jeff handed me his shirt while the gold lamé guy was taking his off...

Sounds very cool! Any idea how many dates they are doing with the film? (I suppose I could also try looking it up myself, but in case you knew offhand.)

Sorry for the delay in responding, but the soundcheck in KC was basically: Country Disappeared I'll Fight (Was I) In Your Dreams (w/"Crazy" interlude-Willie Nelson-style) Sky Blue Sky Say You Miss Me —organ/keyboard jam—

Definitely the goofiest show of the tour so far, what with the gold lamé shirt trading and all... Here were the setlists, as played: For Wilco: —"The Price is Right" theme music intro— Wilco (the song) A Shot in the Arm One Wing IATTBYH Bull Black Nova You Are My Face Company In My Back Kamera Handshake Drugs I'll Fight Cars Can't Escape Impossible Germany Sonny Feeling Hate It Here Walken I'm The Man Who Loves You Hummingbird ------------------ Theologians Jesus, etc. (crowd singslong) Can't Stand It You Never Know (w/Liam Finn on acoustic guitar and vox) ------------------ The Late Grea

If it was at the Aeolian, I would definitely say hello. But I'll do my best this time, T. (Of course, you could always say hello to me!)

It's late, so I'll just post the setlists for this arena spectacular (or not spectacular, depending on your point of view). Jim Scott, who co-produced both Wilco (the album) and the Seven Worlds Collide project, was at the show (with a couple of the Dixie Chicks, I'm told), and got shoutouts from both Wilco and Liam Finn. There was also Jeff's "regifting" of a signed Nolan Ryan baseball to somebody named Patrick in the first few rows. Apparently it was Patrick's birthday. Anyway, here's what Wilco played: Wilco (the song) A Shot in the Arm Bull Black Nova You Are My Face IATTBYH> One Wi

You must be really fun company, sir (or madam).

Nope, they've got about another week yet. Their last gig on this tour is Oct. 16 in Ann Arbor.

Agreed. Liam and EJ have been a really great supporting act. I find it hard to believe most people couldn't find at least something to like about them. Hopefully someone got a good photo of Liam last night in his Michael Jackson-esque red jacket. I think it was more like the Thriller look, though I thought Jeff said something to the effect of it being Bad-era. Liam took it off after a couple of songs, but put it back on when he came out for YNK and California Stars (although he also had a scarf on, which detracted a bit from the MJ effect). I actually remembered to keep Liam's setlist as w

Not a misprint. By my decidedly unscientific research, seems like the only other time that's happened this year in a non-festival set was the second night at the Pabst in Milwaukee on 4-15-09. (Personal to heffer: Is that interesting? ) Now a show without Jesus or I'm The Man? That would probably be a misprint.

I have to say, fortunately it didn't get nearly as cold as I had feared. I would imagine outdoor shows in October could be dicey, given that temperatures went down to freezing overnight. Jeff mentioned how it was sort of a melancholy fall day and they were going to play some autumnal, "squash-colored" songs. Anyway, here was the setlist for Kansas City, as played: —"The Price Is Right" theme music intro— Wilco (the song) IATTBYH Bull Black Nova You Are My Face One Wing A Shot in the Arm Radio Cure Impossible Germany At Least That's What You Said One By One I'll Fight Handshake Drugs Sonny

Yeah, watching that guy work his magic was one of the best parts of the show for me! It was just really cool seeing how he created all the different sound effects. Glenn was chatting with him afterward, maybe learning a few tricks of the trade. And although I couldn't see it all that well, I love that Nels "sat in" with the house band on "Hound Dog," which led into Wilco's second mini-set. His versatility never ceases to amaze.

On about 8:50 pm, off about 11:15 pm. Give or take a few minutes.

More like doing a little soloing on electric guitar (looked like he might have even borrowed one of Jeff's Gibson SGs). Oh, and the setlist agonistes posted to start this thread was correct, as played. They stuck to the script exactly, as she pointed out. Nice to meet you Mel!

Thanks for the words of support, ditty. And very sorry to have bored you, heffer (but if you ever need a hand getting that stick out of your ass, definitely feel free to give me a call ).

That's what the "Setlist Matcher" on Wilcobase is for! (Actually, that's the first time I've ever had occasion to use that function. )

Interesting tidbit: According to Wilcobase, Cars Can't Escape and A Magazine Called Sunset have only been played at the same show five, now six, times (and actually, one was at a Living Room show, so it's really five times at an actual Wilco show). Three of the five times have been in Iowa -- twice at Val-Air Ballroom in Des Moines (9-17-03 and 3-9-08) and tonight in Iowa City. Weird. The other two times, incidentally, at were the first Auditorium Theatre shows (9-19-03 and 9-20-03). I can't say tonight's rendition of Cars was the finest one ever, though. Jeff flubbed a lyric and Nels, wh

I dunno...I think Jeff could do a great job on "Crazy."
