remphish1 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 So I know some of you have never seen Wilco (Hope y'all get to expierence it at least once!)...I know some of you seen them once and others tons...whats your story. Maybe add your first show and fond memory or even that happened at one of the events. I have seen:Wilco 9 times Tweedy 3 TimesDown With Wilco 1Autumn Defence 1 Firts time was2/15/97 at Irving Plaza in NYC. They taped the show for HBO's reverb and had a food fight of sorts. It was the angstiest I ever seen the band and has remained my favorite time seeing the band I also saw the band on Letterman permform Outta Mind and got to talk to the band before and after the show for maybe 15 minutes. It was just Wilco my friend and I out there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lamradio Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Wilco twice.. Yeah, I'm a light-weight.. But the first time I saw them was way back in 97.. They were part of a small festival in my home town of Greenville, SC. They blew everyone else off the stage.. The next time was in Charlotte last year. But I will be seeing them again in a few weeks in Charleston. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cryptique Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I'm not really a see-a-band-as-many-times-as-possible kind of guy, but I have seen Wilco three times. Tweedy: once (last year's Living Room Show # 3) There are very few artists I've seen more than once: Wilco, Elvis Costello, Billy Bragg, Andrew Bird, Ryan Adams, Richard Thompson, Neko Case, and only a handful of others.

j4lackey Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Wow. It's taken 12 years, but I've seen the boys a lot. I need to get a new hobby! It was fun to go through WilcoBase and check out these shows. Doesn't seem like 12 years.

Three dollars and 63 cents Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Twice, but it will be three times by the end of the month. I also saw the Autumn Defense once, but considering they were opening for Wilco, that probably doesn't really count. I've been a Wilco fan for seven or eight years, but they never seemed to play anywhere near where I was living for a long time. They're still not, really, but I've come to my senses and realized they're always worth the trip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouisvilleGreg Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I think 24 times over the past 7 years, as well as 3 Tweedy solos. Damn, that's a fucking lot when I think about it. Five more next week in Chicago. see you'll there, greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tangara Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 First show: 1997 at the Barrymore in Madison. I'm honestly not sure how many times since. Four times last year: Madison/Overture, Chicago/Pritzker, Austin/ACL and Milwaukee/Eagles Ballroom. Still ridiculously excited for the residency. Man, I love Wilco.
