mountain bed Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I can't even begin to compare any era of Wilco to The Dead. It's just a completely different thing to me. I HAVE thought about this one, though: GD 72 / Phish 93GD 73 / Phish 94GD 74 / Phish 95 Both bands at the height of their powers, both getting more and more sophisticated in their jamming, both never again achieving the 'turn on a dime' improvisation afterwards.

Vacant Horizon Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 over the past few years it's dawned on me how lucky i was to be in my teens and 20s in the 90s when phish was at their peak. i meet kids these days who are in awe that i saw shows in 90-00 and many of the live phish releases to boot. it's like me meeting someone who was at cornell. i don't listen to phish much anymore, but i have to say that it is really fun to see many of the shows i went to as famous phish shows in history. at this point, i don't think i could stomach a phish show today. the scene is just ridiculous and i was pretty burned out by the late 90s. unlike the dead in the 90s, it was easy to see a shitload of phish shows in a row as they played many venues in the same state. hell, i think i saw every show in the midwest from 91 on. cheap tickets too. met the band a bunch of times...they used to hang out before and after shows. anyway, fly famous mockingbird! fwiw, i love listening to dead and phish studio albums lately. can't beat Rift or Mars Hotel.

mountain bed Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 35 years ago today - yes, there's the novelty of the "Close Encounters Jam", but do yourself a favor and check out the entire "Other One". Over 20 minutes, and a throwback to '70-'71 Other Ones. Seriously. This tune lost a LOT post-hiatus ('76-'95) imo, but this is not of those times. Pretty epic, I'd say one of the better version in the last 20 years. Link to post Share on other sites
winterland121072 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I have always thought 1972 was the best year for the Grateful Dead. Is there a consensus on Wilco's best years? 2002 to me seems to be at least right up there... Link to post Share on other sites
Shug Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Consensus on a music message board? Are you high? :) 2008 would be my pick for best year of Wilco. Nels, Pat, Glenn and horn section, Sky Blue Sky tunes getting played a lot, Nudie suit, 2008 can't be beat, IMO Link to post Share on other sites

Is there a consensus on Wilco's best years? 2002 to me seems to be at least right up there...That works for me. I saw 3 of the 4 Florida shows, and they were great. To this day, I'm bummed that I missed the West Palm show because they played "We've Been Had," and to this day I haven't seen them play it.The Evening with Wilco tour was pretty stellar too...Edit: Apologies to all my fellow Deadheads for participating thoroughly in the derailment of this thread.

winterland121072 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I really like the recent stuff post 2008, and I'll continue to see as many shows as I can, but the shows seem very similar and almost too formulaic. The jams / solos are nearly identical show to show and the show format doesn't seem to change (except for the chicago 2011 shows). I like it though because it is nearly exceptional night to night - but sometimes it just seems like the same show over and over again. Reminds me of GD 1977 - exceptional but lacking in improvisation. The earlier Wilco stuff (especially 2001 / 2002 / 2003) seemed a bit rawer and without a net-ish. Link to post Share on other sites

I'll still see them as many times as I can, but I don't ever expect another Don't Fear the Reaper encore or a surprise Ziggy Stardust.Hell, I'd be psyched just to see another obscure song (More Like the Moon, Venus Stopped the Train, etc.), but then, that's why we are the fanatics on the message board and not just casual concertgoers...
