Ok, well except for maybe a couple of tiny clicks, i was able to get a very good recording of this. There was a click during Theologians, probably due to me refreshing this thread one too many times, but that might be the only blemish.

 

I'm sure a lot of people missed this, so once i get some sleep, i'll prepare a torrent. Now, If you'll excuse me i gotta hit the bed.

 

Thanks for the company, folks! See you a bit later. Thanks for the refreshments, Donna! :thumbup

Thank you Wilco for broadcasting. We are so lucky the band does this. I hope they move to video some day as well.

 

Did anyone else catch the Walken lyrics change? I hope smrt was listening and did. Jeff's a really nice husband.

just back to the hotel. there were 4 melbournians in a row dead centre at the front.... during the kingpin rant when it started, a fellow VC'er did the pirate sound and then i did it. thats when he singled me out - god knows how he knows!. it was a surprise/shock but in a nice way.

 

the sound was much louder than the melbourne ones and the atmosphere was better. the band were smiling the whole time

 

NOW, after the show, a friend had a passes to the backstage party. me and 3 other melbournians and 2 people from brisbane (whiskeygirl) were with her. she asked pat and pat let us into it!. jeff and gelnnn werent there but we got to talk with pat, mikael, john and nels. stayed there for about 90 mins which was nice

 

anyway, wilco trek is over now. great time/shows and especially excellent tonight. hope you all enjoyed the webcast

 

i took a small movie of jeff's hummingbird dance which was especially funny tonight :lol

 

more soon...

I was there and it was a fucking amazing show. I hope someone recorded the webcast!

 

I've posted what I think is an accurate setlist in the 'After The Shows' section, though HighFives' was pretty spot on.

 

Wilco, you are a bunch of geniuses.

just got back from our sydney trip with froggie and co. don't know if he mentioned it, but thanks to some quick thinking from the female members of our entourage, we managed to coax our way into the aftershow party, where we got to rub shoulders with the band, and a-list celebs like... toni collette... and... well, that was about it. but still. nels gave me the secret to a good jazzmaster. yep. argh!

I also saw Paul Dempsey from Something For Kate and Tim Freedman from The Whitlams at the gig. I guess they mightn't have gone backstage though. Toni Collette was probably there because of support act Glenn Richards (Augie March) who apparently has been working with her on her new album.

 

nels gave me the secret to a good jazzmaster. yep. argh!

 

What is the secret, pray tell?

 

Absolutely incredible gig. They've most definitely turned up the rawk this tour (or at least, this gig). And I _love_ the new songs - i've strayed away from hearing new stuff before the album comes out... but from what I heard last night, it's gonna be brilliant.
