How many Wilco shows have you been to? (sorry if this has been done before.)

[Chinese Apple]

Solo shows and Pronto or Autumn Defense count, too. Also, shows where Wilco members join other bands to form a super-group like 7 Worlds Collide and the Mark Mulcahy Benefit, or festivals, etc.

 

Feel free to list the venues...

[suites]

Lets see how good my memory is:

 

 

7/23/95 Button Soth, Hallandale, Fl., opening for Jayhawks

9/21/97 Sunrise Musical Theater, Sunrise, Fl., opening for Sheryl Crow

11/4/02 Carefree Theatre, WPB Fl.

2/16/05 Performing Art Center, Tampa, Fl

2/17/05 Pompano Beach Ampitheatre, Pompano Beach, Fl

3/12/06 Markhum Park, Sunrise, Fl, Langerado

8/6/08 Florida Theatre, Jacksonville, Fl

12/15/08 Madison Square Garden, NY, NY, Opening for Neil Young

 

That is it.....I would be in the much higher list, if I lived in Chicago or Phila. Fact is this is every show that was played south of Lake Okeechobee for any member of Wilco (at least in public).

 

Come on boys, schedule some dates in sunny South Florida.

 

EDIT: Thanks to the band (and management) for scheduling down here in South Florida....Like I told you guys, my wife has offered to have the band over for dinner when you are down here. See can make a great sauce and meatballs.

Chinese Apple, maybe the thread title should read "Hey bbop - how many Wilco shows have you been to?", cause that's something I'd really be interested in knowing. Or, maybe "how many Wilco shows have you NOT been to?".

 

I keed, bbop.

 

I think I've seen around a baker's dozen since '02.

Calvin Theatre, Northampton, MA, March 27, 2009 (w/ Pronto)

 

Last year I saw Nels play with the Singers in New York, Chicago, Indianapolis, Ann Arbor, Montreal, Columbia, Nashville, Knoxville, and Asheville. I also saw him play with Carla Bozulich twice--once with her band Evangelista, then the next night as their duo Scarnella--with Norton Wisdom, and with the Scott Amendola Band, and I've seen him once this year playing solo.

The first one was probably my favorite of the four, they were great in Oct. 2007 but that venue (Duquesne University's basketball gym) wasn't that great, and our seats were at a pretty weird angle.

[Mr. Kinsley]

While in line for a show in '04, I asked someone whom I knew had travelled to see multiple shows on that tour how many Wilco concerts she'd been to. She looked at me rather puzzled and asked, "You mean... on this tour, or...?"

 

In other words, I think she'd seen more Wilco shows that Jeff!

 

As for me, I'm at a measly 6.

Wilco:

My favorites: *

 

*11-07-1997 Trees, Dallas, TX (My girlfriend's father was picking us up after the show and I think I made him wait till after the first encore. Definitely violated her curfew. My bad. I will always remember that night's version of "Misunderstood".)

*8-14-1999 Gypsy Tea Room, Dallas, TX

9-22-2001 Stubbs, Austin, TX

9-27-2002 The Mercury, Austin TX

9-28-2002 ACL Fest

8-02-2004 Eagle's Ballroom, Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Lived in Chicago that summer and met some of you fine people. My only time backstage.)

*9-14-2004 The Blue Note, Columbia, Missouri

9-19-2004 ACL Fest

9-24-2005 Stubbs, Austin, TX

9-25-2005 ACL Fest

*10-12-2006 Will Rogers Auditorium, Fort Worth, TX

9-14-2007 Palladium Ballroom, Dallas, TX

 

Jeff Solo:

1-20-2007 Granada, Dallas, TX (I wrote a preview in the local alt-weekly for this show and Jeff sort of dissed it on stage. Never found out if it was sarcasm 'cause he got sidetracked playing that "Band names/types of shit" game that was so popular on this tour.)

 

Autumn Defense:

Hideout Party, Pok-E-Jo's BBQ, SXSW 2001

SXSW 2003/2004?

 

Jay Bennett

Emo's, Austin, TX (circa 2001/2002)

 

 

There might be one or two I'm forgetting. I tried to get into a Wilco show at Sons of Hermann Hall in Dallas when I was 15 but it was sold out. I've regretted not getting advance tickets ever since.

[jackpott]

2008-08-07

 

I was given tickets to this show as a birthday present, and it was probably the greatest birthday I have ever been given.

[barbkm]

was there, going again in a few weeks

 

horrible concert venue, though

 

This was the show when Nels fell walking onto the stage, to which Jeff said, "Hey, I saw Wilco last night ... and they were trippen...."
