Firecracker Kid Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Despite what was one of the most obnoxious crowds I've ever been around, we really got a great show tonight. Gary Louris joined Jeff for several songs which was somewhat unexpected, mainly because The Jayhawks don't play the festival until next week (although, admittedly, I did spot him in town yesterday and was hopeful it would happen). Unfortunately the beauty of the show was lost on what seemed like over 90% of the people there who chose excessive talking, complete non-participation with the artist (even when directly requested by Jeff), and general jackassery. But for those of us fans in attendance it was a pretty great set. Here's the set list as played...

eckythump Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I hope I wasn't included in part of your jackassery assessment! I was having a great time singing along. That was a pretty typical Todos Santos crowd, loud and wanting to drink, it's a part of festivals when you're not who everyone is there to see unfortunately. The Thanks I Get was requested by me through the website, and I was certainly doing the 'We can make it better' part. I also requested Give Back The Key To My Heart, so i'm taking that as 4/4 now from 2 nights. Now if we get Spiders tomorrow night I'll be 5/5. I got the written setlist, I'm The Man Who Loves You was on it after Shot in the arm, but wasn't played. Jeff didn't have one at all last night and only glanced at this one a few times. Can't wait to see what treats we get tomorrow night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eckythump Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Also worth noting Jeff played with The Minus 5 earlier in the night on I'm Not Bitter and Dear Employer (The Reason I Quit). Pat and John were also on Dear Employer. Pat stayed on also for Blue Rickenbacker Guitar, which featured Mike Mills and Peter Buck. It really was a fantastic night.

The Inside of Outside Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 That is a great solo setlist. I love seeing a Star Wars song on it, and the Golden Smog run of songs (four!) is pretty cool. Consider me jealous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eckythump Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Having looked at the setlist again, there was a song called 'Cry All Day' also listed after Where Do I Begin, which I'm presuming is a new song. Anyone familiar with it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like a cool little set, and especially with everyone joining in. Too bad about the crowd, though. Ugh. Glad you enjoyed in spite of that, and gracias for the report! Haven't heard of Cry All Day before, so I would have to assume that's another new one...though I guess it didn't get played. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eckythump Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 No it wasn't played. Maybe tonight. Jeff probably forgot it was on the setlist as he only glanced at it a few times as it was taped on to the drumkit behind him and not on the stage Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Tatlock Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Thanks for the reports lucky attendees Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eckythump Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 After getting my setlist from this show signed by Jeff in Sydney last week, I asked him about the song 'Cry All Day' that was on the setlist. Jeff confirmed it was a new song that will be on the next record. I didn't get time to ask whether it was a Tweedy or Wilco record, but given Jeff has talked about the new Wilco record being done, I can only assume it will be on that.
