Wilco: The Thread

[ditty]

I was shut out on both presales, but snagged a lower center pair at the onsale

3rd row pit for the Pritzker  didn't think we stood a chance against all the local stans!

Nice! Didn't pull anything close to pit via presales/reg sale.

Thanks! I've had really shitty ticket luck this spring, so I was pleasantly surprised. Of course I lucked out with the band I can see any old time  but still.

anyone interested in going to the show in philly on Sat. at the Mann for free?  A friend of mine can't make it so he just gave them to me (I offered to pay him, but he said no it's cool).  They're seated tix, not sure exactly where but pretty sure not in the balcony and def. not in the lawn.

Schmilco?  Nice!!

I'm an on and off fan of Wilco. I'm really getting into the Kicking Television/Ghost is Born phase right now. Anyone have any good live show suggestions?

[sillyboob]

So with Kicking Television, you have probably the best recording of that timeframe.  OI just gave a quick listen to the bootlegs I have, and from that period I'd suggest are from Italy 2004 and Montreal 2005, not sure of the venues here.  I also recommend tracking down their 5 night no repeat sets in Chicago, February 2008.  Wilco has some great stuff floating around out there on the internets.  The engineering demos of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot are interesting to hear.

played someone to lose... an obvious choice for late night.. not many songs from the new album could be played in that time slot. Sounds like a folky version of a YHF track.

Incredible time at the Fillmore couple weeks back. Ended up getting a hotel right by the venue and the whole band was staying their as well. Chatted briefly with Glenn, super nice guy.

[Shug]

Saw 2 of the three nights in LA, night two was as an inspired a show as I've seen them play. Wilco are still at the top of their game. Stayed at the Ace hotel in the same building as the venue and saw the band a bunch there too. John Stirrat is a nice dude too.

I hate to speculate but Newport Folk Fest Saturday is lining right up (NJ on Friday, Portland on Sunday).

Of course they'd announce that literally days after committing to Closer To The Sun (gotta feed that jones for Caribbean all-inclusive music festivals). 

DAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!

Just got tickets for Austin in October.

The show last night in Knoxville was UNREAL! The band was so on top of it. The crowd was electric. Just an awesome evening and more to come tonight!

Anyone else streaming the Amsterdam show right now? They are pulling out all of my faves!
