remphish1 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I tried to stuff the request box for Too Far Apart on Saturday but failed. I am not sure the request are ever taken into consideration. That being said what are the top 10 songs you would like to hear Wilco play that you haven't heard live from them yet in person. Lets just stick to album tracks or ep tracks and not covers... For me in no particular order1. Too Far Apart2. ELT (Heard Jeff play it solo but would like a full band version)3. We're Just Friends4. Open Mind5. Blue Eyed Soul6. On and On and On7. Either Way8. What Light9. I Thought I Held You10. Message from Mid-Bar/Thanks I Get tie! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
randomname Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I left Chicago very happy after hearing for the first time:1) Ashes of American Flags2) Either Way3) Pot Kettle Black4) Reservations5) Lonely 16) Sunken Treasure7) Forget the FlowersAll of which would have been top 10 for me. I'd still love to hear:1) Poor Places (only YHF song I haven't heard live)2) In a Future Age3) Dreamer in My Dreams4) Far, Far Away5) Why Would You Wanna Live6) You are My Face7) Open Mind8) One Sunday Morning9) Monday10) Muzzle of Bees I couldn't make the last Chicago show which would have taken care of the last two!

LoveisHello64 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I think "One Sunday Morning" is one of the most beautiful Wilco songs but doesnt seem like they play it much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 it's a pretty long song and needs the right sequencing to pull off, i think Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Inside of Outside Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Not exactly sure which songs I have and have not seen. I do know that I have not seen, and would love to see, Say You Miss Me and Pieholden Suite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mizzy Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I've been on a mission for Dreamer in my Dreams for years and they often play it the night after I see them. Anywho, here's my list: 1.) Dreamer in My Dreams2.) At My Window Sad and Lonely3.) I Must Be High4.) ELT5.) Open mind6.) When you Wake up Feeling Old7.) Bob Dylan's 49th Beard I've heard everything else that i've wanted to, going to the Tanglewood show meant I was lucky enough to get some gems that I haven't heard since. And lastly, I have a buddy who I go to Wilco shows with almost every time and on the day of the show we update the spreadsheet of songs we've heard and where. The driver can ask questions, the passenger can look up the stats. "Dude, they play Heavy Metal Drummer a lot, don't they?" "Sure do, we've gotten it 15 out of 17 shows, 15 out of 16 if you take out the covers show". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
choo-choo-charlie Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 More like the moon is awesome live heard one of its rare performance! Can't understand why it's not played more!I just don't see what the current lineup would do with it. It's so bare bones, and frankly, in my opinion, a bit plodding and monotonous. I don't mind when it comes up in the shuffle from time to time, but I think it would be a momentum killer in a live show. I've heard a ton of the songs mentioned in this thread, as I have been lucky to attend a fair number of shows, including ones with great setlists. The "Evening with Wilco" show I saw in 2010 was a nice three-plus hour clearinghouse of tunes, and the KC show in 2007 had 4 tracks from A.M. What gets me excited is when deep cuts from the first three records pop up. I don't think I keep to hear IG again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 i had some time to kill at work today so i compiled a spreadsheet (using data from setlist.fm) of all the songs i've seen them play live (not counting the ones i missed during the thunderstorms at Lelacheur, where they cut the show early after we left).here are the non-covers i've seen them play just once: At My Window Sad and Lonely Black Moon Bob Dylan's 49th Beard Dark Neon Give Back the Key to My Heart Hell Is Chrome Less Than You Think Let's Not Get Carried Away Muzzle of Bees On and On and On One by One Panthers Secret of the Sea Standing O The Thanks I Get What Light When You Wake Up Feeling Old Why Would You Wanna Live Wishful Thinking i was surprised to see both Muzzle of Bees and Hell is Chrome in that list.tied for most (at 11) isA Shot In The ArmI'm The Man Who Loves YouImpossible Germany Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like my top 3 most heard Wilco songs: 1. Impossible Germany (16)2. A Shot in the Arm (15)3. I'm the Man Who Loves (14) No surprise there. Looking at my Jeff Tweedy shows (which also include the Tweedy shows), there is way more variation, which is also no surprise. With 5 plays each: I Am Trying to Break Your Heart, New Madrid, and The Ruling Class. I am, however, surprised that a few songs that I've considered "classics" I've only heard a couple of times -- Pot Kettle Black (2), Side With the Seeds (2), I Must Be High (2)... One other thing stood out: how great the SSF setlists tend to be. So many songs that I've only heard played a single time are from a SSF set: Candyfloss, Dark Neon, Panthers, Secret of the Sea, Summer Teeth, On and On and On, Hell Is Chrome, etc.. Anyway, this wasn't the point of the thread but it was a fun exercise! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Madcap Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 In my 30+ shows, I think the only thing I haven't really seen (besides Schmilco songs) is a non-hootenany New Madrid. I could go for a hell of a lot more than my 2 Pieholden Suites though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

choo-choo-charlie Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Only if you have seen them live prior to 2001 lol or you have never seen them live!FWIW, Jeff Tweedy played ITMWLY four times in 1999 and four times in 2000, and Wilco played it 13 times in 2000. But yeah, it's been ubiquitous since the first YHF tour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
