thingfishp Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Has anyone heard anything about possible future shows? The MassMOMA benefit show? Gotta start strategizing for the summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I have a Google alert set up for Solid Sound 2012 and just got a link to an interview with Joe Thompson, the head of Mass MoCA. It's a pretty long but interesting article, about the economic realities of the museum and the impact of the Solid Sound Festival, etc., but buried within the article is this little nugget: Wilco is coming back to play a concert this summer in late July or early August. That's the first I've heard of any specific timeframe information. We know they'll be at Forecastle on July 15 and at a Swedish festival on August 10, so I guess we should stay on the alert for maybe some northeast shows after Forecastle.

We were just discussing this on the facebook Wilco page. At last something for the east coast...well we knew they were doing a show there, just no idea when...I'll be happy once tickets have gone on sale & I've got mine...and...once the rest of the east coast shows get announced!!

tugmoose Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Wilco on facebook says summer concert slate tba next week. If Cleveland's not on it (band hasn't been here since a sold out show in Feb. 08), they might be losing one tugmoose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shug Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'm hoping for a non-festival show in Austin sometime this summer or fall. Kinda wondering, too, if there is room in the May Southern tour for a New Orleans date? I guess we'll find out soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I heard a rumor they're going to play in Chattanooga... (I also started that rumor) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kidsmoke Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I heard a rumor they're going to play in Chattanooga... (I also started that rumor) It's a great rumor. Good luck! Though I had zero success with that rumor a few years back about them playing a backyard BBQ at my place... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 It's a great rumor. Good luck! Though I had zero success with that rumor a few years back about them playing a backyard BBQ at my place... I bug the venue that brought the Avetts to town back in December nearly every day about bringing Wilco. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nalafej Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 XRT just tweeted that Jeff will be on their Monday morning show (w/ Lin Brehmer) and will have a major announcement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sonnyfeeling Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Well, based on that Facebook picture and a quick perusal of the Red Rocks calendar, I think I can say with HIGH confidence that Wilco is playing Red Rocks on the weekend of June 22-23-24.That's "an early summer weekend." In fact, it's the only unbooked weekend of the early summer. The Avett Brothers are headlining on the 29th and 30th, String Cheese Incident is there on July 5-6-7, and Wilco is on the East Coast after that. So I've already got the weekend of June 22 penciled in my calendar. It's an easy drive for us. Of course, what would be REALLY cool would be a show at the Santa Fe Opera House (amazing outdoor venue, only about five hours from Red Rocks). That would be a dream come true.

thagle Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Is the Monday announcement going to be headlining a night of Lolla? probably Quote Link to post Share on other sites
