bleedorange Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I haven't seen Wilco on this tour, but recently SBS and AGIB tour, I really like this lineup's version of Pot Kettle Black. Jay Bennet era Wilco doing Passenger Side was awesome. I agree, Pot Kettle Black has definitely been a recent highlight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ih8music Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Via Chicago for me. There's nothing quite like Jeff smoothly strumming along while the rest of the band does a sonic interpretation of WW3. They kicked off one of the LA shows with it, and I couldn't have been happier.

drop dead ed Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 This is not a great live Wilco song, is it? I still think it's better left for solo shows. well those that will probably never get a chance to attend a Jeff Tweedy solo show, I happen to have got some sort of enjoyment out of it. A taste of his solo show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Livin' in New Orleans Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 I agree, Pot Kettle Black has definitely been a recent highlight. Yes. The part that starts with "Lazy Locomotives" is pretty breathtaking for me. I also love the recent renditions of Kamera Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saluqi Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Dark and creepy - Radio Cure Last summer on our family Wilco sojourn we were in Pomona and the first six songs were all repeats from El Paso and Tucson, great tunes but I was kind of ho-hum, then they played Radio Cure and I turned to my wife and said this song is really creepy. The show exploded after that tune, there was no looking back, ever since I really love live renditions of that song. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky speaks Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Red Eyed And Blue and I've Got You, two of the best Wilco songs back to back no less. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IRememberDBoon Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I used to enjoy when they opened with Sunken Treasure. Great way to start a show and melt some faces right off the bat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SGL Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Ashes is sick. so is hoodoo voodoo. and any show when they play Outta Mind (Outta Sight) and Outtasite (Outta Mind) is awesome. Ex: http://www.wilcobase.com/event.php?event_key=1104 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I also love the recent renditions of Kamera Same here...I think "Phone my familyTell 'em I'm lost on the sidewalkAnd no it's not okay" is my favorite Wilco verse. Love hearing it live. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mpolak21 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Leroy Bach era: How To Fight Loneliness into Not For The Season or the Poor Places/Reservations/I Am Trying To Break Your Heart/War On War combo they'd do. With this lineup I'd say either Ashes or In a Future Age. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigshoulders Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 You are My Face I'm not much of a sing-along guy but it just gets me the entire audience joins in on: I have no idea how this happens...+1This will likely change the next time I hear another Wilco boot.

dylan_1 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I've only been to three shows, but I will say "Misunderstood" got me everytime. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I've only been to three shows, but I will say "Misunderstood" got me everytime. I am always uncomfortable at the inherent anger in "Misunderstood". I never could tell if his anger was at Jay, the fans who wouldn't accept the growth in the band, the record company of somebody/something else. "I'd like to thank you all for nothing (x30 or 40)" is a little uncomfortable. Is Jeff still REALLY pissed? And if so, who is he pissed at? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Speed Racer Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Is Jeff still REALLY pissed? And if so, who is he pissed at? For real? Do you think he's actually lonely every time he sings "How to Fight Loneliness?" Does he really think he and Feist can take all the good with the bad, and make something no one else has? He's performing on stage, and part of that performance is screaming a few dozen "nothings" a night. Everybody loves a good scream, especially when they get paid to do it and people applaud at the end. Hell, I'd scream for twenty minutes with a guarantee like that. As for the song, well, everyone loves of a good angst-fest every once and a while. I doubt many people on this board have gone without playing that one on repeat at one point or another in their lives. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Speed Racer Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I loved the Red-Eyed/I Got You/Someone Else's Song run they used to do, and I'm Always in Love with that bitchin' riff, circa 2000. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess Jeff sells it so well that I am projecting that he is really pissed. And "Misunderstood" is much more immediate and direct than "How to Fight Loneliness?"
