ELS Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I know they've said they'll be announcing East Coast dates for July, but do you think they might swing through the Midwest to hit a few places they missed? I know they're playing a festival in Minnesota later that month, which is why I think this is a possibility. City-wise, I'm not really sure what they would do. I doubt Indianapolis will get a show, since the band is playing Bloomington this spring... St. Louis and Chicago are both due for shows... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be surprised if they didn't make a stop in their home town in the summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ELS Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 I would think so. I'd be surprised if they didn't make a stop in their home town in the summer. Hm... Now that they've announced the July dates it doesn't look like that's the case. Unless they squeeze something in right around 10KLF... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sky blue bats Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 there is a five day gap between colorado and virgina, does it take 5 days to drive ? Maybe a stop in austin would be a nice rest stop!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dondoboy Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm hoping for a stop in Detroit around 10KLF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tangerine Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm hoping for a stop in Detroit around 10KLF. maybe a stop in detroit but it's getting more and more unlikely that they will be playing anymore shows before the fall atleast... You would think they will tour maybe Australia in the summer and than a late US winter tour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 It is certainly time for some Chicago dates. Wilco hasn't played to the hometown crowd since the residency over a year ago. (Not counting Lolla which is for tourists....) LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dondoboy Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I would bet midwest this fall. But I'm alright to wait for winter or next spring even. Its going to be a full summer anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would love to see a big Wilco Halloween party again!!! Halloween over a weekend? Uggh. That means my neighborhood in Lakeview will be crawling with drunk, rowdy early 20-year olds dressed like hookers and faux superheros (well, even more so than it already is). God I'm old.

My summer's almost empty! The only show I've got lined up is the Decemberists on May 31 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bhickman Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Halloween shows would be great. God damn I love this band. I know I only tend to show up when they have projects going on, so I apologize to you hard core posters, but this band has me 100%. Has been that way for what? 14 - 15 years now? Jesus. My wife is not much of a fan, so she's a little worn out with the watching and re-watching of DVDs and the re-reading of Greg Kot's book. I can't get enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H.Stone Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I'd love to see a Mpls date before the 10KLF, but I doubt it will happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bldad Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 From a purely selfish standpoint, Wilco as a band hasn't played Mpls/St. Paul since, what ..... October 2004? There was Tweedy solo in November '05, and a couple of Wilco shows in Minnesota since then, but I don't remember a single Wilco show in the Twin Cities since then.
