I think Disney is doing a good job with the universe and the story that they're telling. I've enjoyed TFA and TLJ a bunch. Been pretty into Star Wars since I was 8, and haven't been disappointed by a movie really (except Attack Of The Clones in parts), and have really enjoyed a bunch of the novels and the new comics are really great. If you're into comics I suggest checking them out. I hope that Rey and Kylo end up together in 9, because I think it will be both of them that bring balance to the Force, not just one or the other. Especially going off what happened in the throne room. Also,

They posted on Facebook that they’re gonna be working on new music during 2018! I hope the Tweedy solo tour comes through the south. Bet we get a Tweedy band tour this summer when Spencer is out of school. -

Hey y’all! -
Did you check the tab section of the board here, theres a lot of songs that aren't on the usual sites in those sections. Gumbopages fills me with nostalgia, because that's where I learned the majority of the Wilco songs I know back when I was just learning the guitar. I'd print them off and fill notebooks with the tabs for all the Uncle Tupelo and Son Volt tunes too.

Wilco — 7 October 2017, Birmingham, AL (Alabama Theatre)
SarahC replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
I had a blast at this one cos it'd been over a year and a half since I'd seen them. Cried really hard a couple of times. Got a special wave from Jeff, so that made me feel all warm and fuzzy. Also got to meet Pat's dad Tony. He's super nice, and talks to you like you've been friends forever. Really special guy. He recognized us the next night in Atlanta too and chatted for a bit. I thought this show was a good example of why I still spend all my money to go to several shows a year. It's more than the music, it's the community. -
Wilco — 9 October 2017, Asheville, NC (Thomas Wolfe Auditorium)
SarahC replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
Thomas Wolfe is a special venue for me personally cos it was the place my first Wilco show was in 2005. Our seats were 4 over from where they were the first time. Made even better by the fluke of friends being on either side of us. One gripe is the floor up front is sloped backwards, so it was really hard to see at times. I hope the guy that vaped so hard next to us is okay, dude was out cold in the floor and seat mates had to flag security half way through the show. Legit a scary moment cos the guy was out cold. I thought the show was great, and I danced too hard- my back still hurts. -
I enjoyed this show a lot, I think it's probably my favorite of the 3 I saw this tour- the sound was good in the pit for us, and we had a great view of the whole stage from 4 rows back. The couple in front of us insisted on holding their phones up for photos nearly every song, so that was the only annoying things to speak of, I guess. It was a little weird the setlist in B'Ham, ATL, and Asheville were so similar, but I guess it might just be the way things are this tour, if not all tours going forward, where the deeper cuts are reserved for residencies or something... I don't really care to
-
Most venues have designated places for folks who can’t stand to sit and see the show with unobstructed views. It only takes communicating with the venue to aquire those accommodations. Dude should have maybe looked into it and not taken it so personally. Usually places are really nice about it.

I saw my first ever wilco show at Thomas Wolfe, and if you're on the extreme right side sight lines are not the greatest. We ended up closer to the aisle this time, so I am hoping to see the band a bit better this time. Last time I saw them there I had to stand on my tip toes a lot. Other than that is was a nice place to see a show, a little dated, but the sound was good.

My heart broke when I saw the news over the weekend. Sending so many good vibes to the Tweedy family. Thanks for going to represent us all, poppydawn.

Got OR row E for Asheville. Super stoked. I think they're releasing in waves, but I jumped as soon as I got something decent. I'm almost positive its the same exact seat I had for my very 1st Wilco show
-
I only ever knew that one song that was super popular when I was in high school, but dang. survived by 6 kids. my heart hurts for his family. jeez.
-
actually I reached out on social media and they gave my info to ticketing. The ticketing lady called me a little after 11 and asked if I would like 4th row pit. I said "absolutely!"
-
I am no longer grumpy. I ended up with 3rd row for Birmingham because of crazy luck, and 4th row pit for Atlanta by magical circumstances. The staff at the Fox is super awesome. Holy cow!
-
That's the thing though. I'm not spending the money if it's not a good seat. I can't see shows like I used to anymore so it really has to be worth it.
-
day 2 of pulling absolutely nothing. I give up. it's not worth the hassle. I'm clocking in at work late for nothing. this is dumb
-
try one of the last 2 album names. it's different for different venues
-
I pulled 5th row for Birmingham until I looked again and realized it was for Memphis. Let them go back into the ether and now feeling even more defeated. I guess there's always hope for Friday
-
congrats man! it's the best feeling to pull awesome seats. I got pit for a couple Atlanta shows (Cobb Energy Centre and Chastain Park) years ago through regular on sales, so I know it happens, I just get my hopes up too high every single time.
-
there's pit tix on stub hub for Atlanta for $500 a piece though. absolutely ridiculous. I wish wilco would do more to prevent scalpers and bots. it's impossible these days. especially since they switched pre-sale companies. song kick is routinely awful. gripe gripe gripe.
-
congrats dude. I didn't pull a single pair. I'm so frustrated and annoyed.
-
$75 a piece for tickets. WTF
