Wilco at Gathering of the Vibes


Recommended Posts

Holy Shit! That was fun. And of course that was the best California Stars in the history of the world. John was grinning ear to ear. They were all stoked but John was REALLY happy.

 

What a great situation, seeing Wilco in a culture where people dance. Per usual the sound was fantastic. Got to see Star Wars and a few other songs for good measure. Impossible Germany was freakin' crazy. Random Name generator, so good live.

Courtesty of the grand & glorious NYC Taper, for your dancing & dining pleasure, the complete 8/1/15 Gathering Of The Vibes Show!!!
From the page: "

Wilco has wowed this summer in a few ways — first with their exceptional Solid Sound acoustic performance (which we captured here), then with the surprise free release of Star Wars, easily their finest album in ten years. Here at Gathering of the Vibes on the Bridgeport seaside, the band built on the momentum they created with their full-album performance of Star Wars back at Pitchfork Music Festival with another full-album run through, followed by some of the band’s best-known songs as well as the rarity “Laminated Cat.” As a special treat, Warren Haynes, he of every single guest appearance at northeastern jam festivals, joined for “California Stars” to close things out. But lest you think this was a standard-issue performance, Jeff Tweedy and co., buoyed by the presence of Nels Cline, turned even the older tunes into noisier, edgier renditions than we’ve seen recently, perhaps alienating some of this festival’s core audience, but proving that Wilco is returning to what made Yankee Hotel Foxtrot their true landmark album, and what marks them as so much bigger than being the “dad rock” of their detractors. Star Wars has proven that this band has many more good years ahead, and we’ll be thrilled to be a part of them.

I recorded this set with Schoeps MK4V microphones in the taper’s section. While distance and being outdoors always impact sound quality, overall this is an excellent effort. Enjoy!"

Positively love this sludge rock version of Kamera.

Otherwise known as Camera...

 

I think this is going to be the new correction, as in, "There's only one key" in Give Back The Key To My Heart and "There's only one secret" in Secret Of The Sea...
