Smokestack Joe Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I just read that Wilco used Price is Right Intro for the Seattle show. I believe this intro has been used for several years now. Around YHF-GIB era, they used the Willy Wonka Pure Imagination intro. I thought that fit perfect for those shows. Does anyone remember any other Intros to Wilco shows?

mpolak21 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 The Man by a 70's rock group Patto for AGIB shows, They played this recording of different African-Animal calls for a few shows on the YHF tour in the fall of 2002. There was an electronic piece they came out too for shows in 2006, but I don't remember the name. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wendy Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 "The Four Horsemen" by Aphrodite's Child ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzVD35lWdE4 And don't forget outros, too. Melanie's "Brand New Key" was always fun to hear on the way out of the venue. And "Rocky Racoon" is another outro I recall. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
barnyard pimp Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 There was an electronic piece they came out too for shows in 2006, but I don't remember the name. Was it that thing that sounded like a marching army of kazoo robots? I loved that. Somebody said it was the theme to Midnight Special played on kazoos but I never knew if that was, uh, true...

u2roolz Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 It's the theme to Jack "something"''s Stargazing show taken from some quasi-classical artist. The guy who would come on at 1a.m. on your local PBS affiliate and tell you to "Remember to keep looking up". I used to watch this when I was a teen when SNL would finish up. It was kind of creepy. Here's a video...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JEMWN8SKJgThat song is in the opening credits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

barbkm Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 What about Intro Suggestions? I think "I'm Going Home" by the Sacred Heart Singers (Cold Mountain soundtrack) would be cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Tatlock Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Both nights at the Roundhouse the music played in the setup time between the opener and Wilco appearing was a variety of old German light operetta. This sort of thing (but not this in particular):- Recognised a couple of tunes. Wonder if they've carried on with it across Europe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
