Opener in October?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know who's opening for Wilco in October? The guys from Dr. Dog said it's not them, and I haven't seen anything on Wilco World or the venue (Eagle's Ballroom) site saying who's the opener. Curious if anyone here has heard.

It would be cool if it was Califone because I have been loving there music lately. Plus, they have opened for Wilco in the past.

 

I am also going to the Eagle's Ballroom show too.

Well the last time I saw them play the Detroit area they had My Morning Jacket open for them.

 

Slim chance that will happen again. :ohwell

 

Though to be fair I saw them play in Toronto this year with Low, and I thought they were pretty good. Not necessarily a great compliment for what Wilco brought on later, but good in their own way. The M's in London last year were terrible though. Would have been better without an opener.

 

So could be anyone really.

 

 

PS - If anyone from Wilco reads this, please play California Stars when you play Detroit. Thanks :thumbup

Cool! Maybe we'll see one another up front. :cheers

 

Sure, but the only covers I do are Culture Club tunes.

 

Do you really want to hurt me?

 

 

Any of the above mentioned bands would be great. I've never seen Califone, Phonograph, or My Morning Jacket, but we saw Low at First Avenue a few years ago. It was a great show, but it's the first time I've heard anyone get shushed (Ssshhhh!!) at First Avenue. The first time I've seen people SIT for a show at First AVe.! So I can see what people are saying about not being a great pre-Wilco (or Eagle's Ballroom, for that matter) fit.

It won't matter who opens for them at the Eagles Ballroom, they will still sound like crap.....if the last show there is any indication...

 

True enough...
