Szabo Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I'm somewhat new to Wilco, about 3 years new. I have some of their live shows from various sources but would love to collect more. In your opinion, what are their Top 5 shows in circulation? If anyone is down for a little trade action, I have plenty of Umphrey's McGee, random Radiohead, Grateful Dead, all of the Live Phish series, and tons of other random shows including The Band, Beastie Boys, Zeppelin and others. Just let me know what you're looking for and chances are I have at least one show. Back to Wilco though, I'm really excited to start collecting and listening to all your favorites. Thanks!

Lammycat Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Off the cuff I can't think of specific dates, but some of my favorite shows are from the early/mid era (late 90s-very early 2000s) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WilcoFan Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 2001.09.26 @ The 930 Club (Don't know why I like this one so much I just really like it) I think this is the one where he told my best friend that Wilco doesn't need a record contract to make rock and roll. - Mr. Baseball cap wearer. Probably my favorite is 1997-05-09 - Fillmore, San Franciso, CA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 My personal favorite is the first show I saw, but that's because it was my first show, and as close to an out of body experiance as I've ever had. Thomas Wolf Auditorium- Asheville, NC- 10-14-05 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Depends on whether you're looking for SBD only shows, which limits the field quite a bit. I have some great ones I attended (8/31/99, 11/3/02) and some great ones I didn't attend (11/15/99, 11/28/01). Shoot me a PM and maybe we can trade for some Dead.

Gobias Industries Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 The 2003.09.19-20 Auditorium shows are the obvious inclusions, others include 2006.10.19 9:30 Club, 2002.04.27 Memorial Chapel, Schenectady. Hope it helps! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
