"hate it here" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQePXnTJgJY you can really hear the chatty crowd...

but that noise probably doesn't last through the whole show... that was just part of it. and it totally wasn't "near hurricane conditions" i don't think i heard thunder either.... strange.

amen

i thought they were too quiet. it was a shame people had to talk so damn loud in atlanta because i would have loved to hear them!

yeah the talkers weren't cool. pissed me off... it's like they were there to see where all their buddies were in comparison to themselves. blah.

that's all kinds of awesome!

yay! just curious, and out you guys that were able to see the video screens, how was that?

is there a way to use a noise reduction thing to clean it up? and thank you for taping. it'll be nice to sit and listen to it in a dry situation!

yay for the tapers! in honesty, i almost felt overwhemled and light headed through most of the show, just trying to soak everything up, because wilco shows (and the music) is very much a cathartic thing for me (music therapy i guess). but i woke up with a smile on my face. did anybody else get a poster. i framed mine just a minute ago and it's really pretty. also to evonne! in retrospect, we could have fit you and courtney both down where we were as one of the people beside becca left the show completely after a few songs

exciting!! let's see, i thought it was pretty cool that they did Kamera... i don't think i've heard that one live before. oh, one other cool thing, did anybody else notice nels practically throwing his guitar at one point? and the faces he and jeff made at the end of "handshake drugs"? is the best way to describe it. glenn standing at the beginning of ITMWLY was awesome. i did too...

i guess we'll see sucks if the whole thing didn't get recorded... but it's understandable... i got really tickled during hummingbird and i couldn't quit laughing... jeff's a funny guy... and pat's mom was laughing at me because before they played "hate it here" i semi-yelled it and she turned around and said "you guessed it!" and they played it... she told me afterward that i was very enthusiastic... was able to get a couple good pictures, which is exciting... never done that at a wilco show. and some samll video clips from "via chicago" and "hate it here"

it rained. a lot.

last night's show was really really good. i had a blast despite the rain... "spiders" was cool. we were right behind pat's family and they were really nice. his dad (i think it was his dad, maybe granddad) was having a ball, he was dancing and stuff, it was really cool. i was disappointed that we didn't get on and on and on or pot kettle black, but that's ok... 'hate it here' was played! and i guess it's safe to assume there wasn't a taper?

i'm glad i didn't have to work today!

oh... did i tell you guys the nerdy thing i did pertaining to the show last week?? i've been really paranoid about the seats we have for some reason. i had 2 "nightmares" about them. one involved a giant pillar coming down on the stage to where i couldn't see anybody and the other one involved a basketball team standing in front of me... i'm a nerd... anyway, it led me to call Chastain and ask where my seats were exactly...the convo was like this: guy: what are the numbers on your tickets? me: row left pit seats 7,8,9 or something like that guy: well, that means that there are 5 rows

yep. that's one good thing about the south. the rains are usually short. a few weeks ago here in chattanooga it started raining like CRAZY... almost like the shower in your house hard.... 30 mins later the sun was out and everything was almost dry.

http://www.weather.com/outlook/health/gene...r_topnav_health most of the time on the weather.com forecast it says scattered. and we could get lucky and it not hit that part of the city...

i have lived in the south my whole life. storms in the summer do not last long hardly ever. yesterday it rained here in chattanooga for like 20 minutes and cleared up downtown pretty quickly there was lightning and stuff too... the ticket says "rain or shine" so i do not think it will cut the show short. maybe the sun will shine today...

here's the set list: Pieholden Suite

btw, your avatar always makes me smile really big!

i've decided that all my bf's have to at least like wilco or the old 97's.

my dad said the same thing about the noise at the end of handshake drugs when we went to our first show

No shit My mom will never take me to Atlanta to see a show again because of the crazy drivers...
