someone mentioned muzzle of bees not being a very inspiring song. couldn't disagree more...that song would get me up on my feet. true, i am not new to the band but still, I think that would get folk up.

I didn't say it was not a very inspiring song. I pointed out the fact that as an opener, it's not likely to get a crowd on its feet.

 

I was there. It didn't.

 

Contrast that song with rockers like I'm The Man Who Loves You, A Shot In The Arm, Casino Queen, or Outtasite (Outta Mind), and you might get my point.

To make things even worse: I refuse to go to a stadium concert,got free tickets the other day for Springsteen about 20 miles from where I live. no thanx, feels too much like a concentration camp to me.(80.000 people surrounded by barb wire ,police etc.)

Where was Springsteen playing the other day?

I like the slow opener. I've always thought "Hell is Chrome" makes a great opening song.

 

I think that's what they opened with when we saw them in san antonio. it was awesome.

 

tonight I hope they open with everlasting dong. I am bringing my own bells.

Three out of the four times I've seen Wilco (well modern Wilco, not counting when I saw them in 96) they have opened with Sunken Treasure. Don't get me wrong I love the song, but the third time I was like "really?"....
