Wilco — 14 September 2016, Los Angeles, CA (The Theatre at Ace Hotel) 3:00pm taping for KCRW-FM


Recommended Posts

I was fortunate enough to be among the ~ 20 people (mostly KCRW-FM staff) in the audience for the 9/14 afternoon audio and video taping for KCRW-FM.

 

Essentially, the band was set up exactly like it was for the three evening shows.  Everyone performed in their "street clothes" (including the normally dapper Nels, who was in jeans), which I thought odd since the performance was being filmed.

 

Both the band and audience members were asked to remain silent between songs, most probably in order to facilitate easy editing between the performances and interview segments.  While everyone in the audience complied throughout, after a few songs the band (mostly Jeff) couldn't help but make a few wise cracks.

 

All of the songs played were also played during the evening shows, using the same arrangements and equipment setups.

 

The complete setlist was as follows:

 

 

If I Ever Was A Child
Cry All Day
The Joke Explained
Someone To Lose
Dawned On Me
Impossible Germany
We Aren't The World (Safety Girl)
The Late Greats
 
Jeff Tweedy interview

Thanks for the report (and the setlist)! Sounds like it was a very "made-for-radio" production. Look forward to hearing/seeing it!
