wilco's best one/two punch

How to Fight Lonlieness->Not For The Season

 

I really wish they'd brought it back during the residency.

You cannot argue with that combo - pure bliss.

 

I never caught those two together live, so I'll say my favorite (that I've seen) would be Poor Places > Noise > Spiders. The way Spiders just sneaks in from the onslaught always makes me smile.

How To Fight into Not For The Season is my favorite as well, and in fact the 2002-2003 version of Not For The Season is probably my favorite live Wilco song of any era period. The Poor Places > Reservations > I Am Trying To Break Your Heart > War on War suite that the band did in the later 2003 shows is sublime as well. And I am a huge fan of Misunderstood > Far Far Away as well.

Except for the part of the range that includes country, Stones-esque rock, power-pop, Replacements racket, et al...

 

I would seriously beg to differ, is all I'm saying. Three totally incredible songs, but there's a LOT more to Wilco than what you find in each of them taken together.
