e_wind Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Should be interesting as Wilco will be a well oiled machine by July and the Jacket has taken a bit of a hiatus while JJ tours solo. I still see both bands killing every single show this on this tour. Yup. I think we're all in for a treat. This is just insane for those of us who love both Wilco and the Jacket... especially if they both get actual full sets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalafej Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 New show in Alabama taking place on 7/3 goes on sale next week... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The High Heat Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Had a mix playing and The Traveling Wilburys' "Where Were You Last Night" came on, causing me to think that Jeff Tweedy would sound great exchanging verses with Bob Dylan on this song live. Perhaps Jeff could help revive the old band, taking on the moniker Doby Wilbury! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Magnetized Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Oh no! Man, I so hope this isn't a sign of things to come. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
~kyle Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Looks like that's the only one to be cancelled...at least so far. http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/life_and_entertainment/2013/06/05/americanarama-festival-cancels-columbus.html It’s the only date being removed from the 28-city tour, said Catherine Swedberg of Jam Productions, the tour’s Chicago-based producer.When reached, she did not offer a reason for the cancellation.Arena spokeswoman Leslie Lane could not confirm if low ticket sales were a factor, although she cited the show “wasn’t sold out by any means.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I'm going to Nashville. Biting the bullet and going. Yep. I hope this isn't a bad decision. I just really wanna see Wilco. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Going to see Wilco is pretty much always a good decision. And the bonus is that they are opening for Howlin' W-- er, Louie Arm-- er, Bob Dylan! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I'm just worried about not being close to the stage and stuff. I love to actually see Wilco play their instruments. Thinking of lining up at 11a.m. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
linclink Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Wilco are changing up the set lists big time & playing with Bob Weir...which for me means...they might play with Richard Thompson too & probably most importantly, they are playing 75 minutes a show- RIGHT ON!!!!I am now in for both Toronto (where I think I've got a great single...sorry to my friends who are also fence sitting, but I'm taking that one & running with it) & most probably Darien Lake (Richard Thompson isn't opening there, Ryan Bingham is, & I truly hate that venue, but it looks like there are plenty of absolutely great seats at very low, & probably going to get lower yet prices)...following up the mind blowing experience of Solid Sound 2013...honestly how could I hold out for long?

uncool2pillow Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Richard & Wilco are 2 of my favorites, but it's hard for me to figure out what they'd collaborate on. Maybe Wilco playing "Shoot Out the Lights" or "Wall of Death"? I could definitely hear a Nels solo on lots of Richard Thompson songs. Maybe Richard could join in on a Hoodoo Vodoo or Handshake Drugs guitar duel? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
anthony Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I'm kinda bummed to Bob Weir on my date. FOTD? Damn... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
linclink Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Hoping for some Wilco with Richard Thompson as the tour progresses!!!! Or even Wilco with Dylan, or Thompson with Dylan- just got a killer ticket for Toronto this week...But here's a killer from last night with Bob Weir...they already done "Ripple", "Friend Of The Devil", "Dead Flowers" & an intriguing "Dark Star">"California Stars">"Dark Star"...but last night I think they topped all of those with "Bird Song">"Tomorrow Never Know"!!!!Maybe they'll just end up doing all of "Revolver" someday (Tweedy does "I'm Only Sleeping", & Wilco just did "And Your Bird Can Sing") Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 well it looks like no press credentials are being issued for the tour...i just checked the site for tickets and there are a ton of seats in the outermost seating sections at Comcast...sections 10 and 14 each have only sold two (2) seats so far. oof. and i thought Richard Thompson was playing the Comcast date, but now it's showing Ryan Bingham.

SarahC Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Maybe it's because I know next to nothing about the dead, but Weir was so boring to me. The songs seemed so disjointed and I felt like he was kind of a mess. Maybe too stoned or something? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jff Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Weir. I don't smoke.I gotta admit, Wier was always my least favorite thing about the Dead. Still, it's cool that he's sitting in with the other bands. That should be happening more on this tour. Why not some of the Wilco or MMJ guys sitting in with other acts?

Three dollars and 63 cents Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 This picture makes me really happy. I hope these two get the chance to collaborate again. I think they were just getting started over the last week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heartbreak Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I agree. I know Bob is a bit of an easy target, being in the druggy Dead all those years (and taking a spill a few weeks ago), but the guy is a legend. At 65, I highly doubt he is sparking up a fatty before he performs. His performances in Tampa and Atlanta were great, and he mixed his set list up just as much as Wilco at all four shows. I was especially impressed that he didn't make it a self-indulgent set of obscure solo tunes or Grateful Dead only. He covered Dylan, Delbert McClinton, & The Platters, in addition to performing songs from his own considerable songbook. And he delivered with about 10 times more energy than Dylan, from what I observed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
