choo-choo-charlie Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Did you look on the venue website? That's usually a good place to start: http://www.kccougars.com/stadiumrulres.html. The FAQs might be helpful too. Or just calling them and asking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Caseydog Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 Did you look on the venue website? That's usually a good place to start: http://www.kccougars.com/stadiumrulres.html. The FAQs might be helpful too. Or just calling them and asking. That doesn't help much as I'm not going to a baseball game. The last time I checked, fans were not on the field during baseball games. I'm guessing cameras are a no, but what about blankets and chairs???? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
choo-choo-charlie Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 You're absolutely right; most of the time, fans aren't on the field during games. I've been to a lot of games and have only seen a few streakers. But you could try calling the venue, as I suggested, and get an answer straight from them rather than hope for one here.

tennisclay Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 just noticed this on the Billions site for Wye Oak. cant be real. Wilco is listed as also appearinghttp://billions.com/shows Sat Sep 15, 2012 Chicago, IL The Hideout Block Party Wilco Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gogo Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Well, they're done in Europe as of August 18. And their next show listed on the Wilcoworld page is September 16, in Columbia, MO. So it's logistically feasible, anyway... Any chance that site confused Wilco with the Waco Brothers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 If you can't make it out, fear not: our friends at WXRT in Chicago will be broadcasting live from the ballpark. Tune in on the radio and internet Sunday, July 8th, 8pm Central time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Okay so maybe it isn't going to rain. But at least it shouldnt be as hot as it is right now. LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nalafej Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Surprised by: ChainsRecording devices but, even without those, still looking forward to the show! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I kinda liked this one. Any item deemed by management to be dangerous or inappropriate The recording devices item is a bit odd - at least someone should be able to pull the feed from WXRT for posterity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mizzy Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 And while we're talking about it: Whats the capacity for this show? I keep seeing it listed as "Wilco's largest headlining show". also:What show holds the previous record? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
michaelcorcoran Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Can anyone define "professional camera"? Has anyone on here brought an SLR into a wilco show previously? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I believe a SLR is considered a professional camera at most venues - at least from my experience. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blureu Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Anyone listening on XRT? No play-by-play commentary on the board?!? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hwllo Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Ok, I will post in here instead of After the Show haha. It's confusing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Col. Hapablap Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Anyone listening on XRT? No play-by-play commentary on the board?!? I am. Im recording it from my radio, which is plugged into my laptop. I hope i dont screw it up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Sounds good for sure.If the guys want to know a good way to ensure a crowd stays on its feet, this setlist is looking like a good template. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwllo Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 So what's everyone's "one" wilco song that has eluded them live? for me, it was poor places until last December! Sounds good for sure.If the guys want to know a good way to ensure a crowd stays on its feet, this setlist is looking like a good template. Exactly! Probably not my favorite songs, but definitely fun for that kind of venue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew McKean Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Very similar to the Missoula setlist already.... hmmm. I wonder if they will do sometime special because it's such a big crowd or stick to mostly hits and new songs? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwllo Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Very similar to the Missoula setlist already.... hmmm. I wonder if they will do sometime special because it's such a big crowd or stick to mostly hits and new songs? I was thinking with such a large crowd it'd be pretty much a hits show. So far that's been the case Quote Link to post Share on other sites
