ROLL CALL- AmericanaramA ona river - Nashvile, TN 6/30/13

[Fully]

I thought it sucked when I first heard no cameras allowed and then I was like.... This is brilliant, not a million fucking cellphones everywhere.

I loved it.


Great show, great set from MMJ. War Begun

It was pretty brilliant if you ask me.;) takes me back to when you went to a show and there weren't cameras all over the place.

[Stevie]

This feels right:

Wonderful
Circuital
Masterplan
First light
Slow slow tune
War begun
It beats 4 u
Brown eyed women (w/ bob weir)
I know you rider (w/ bob weir)
Victory dance
Mahgeetah
Gideon

So was this a full War Begun or was it Slow>Ending of War Begun like the first stop on the tour?

I'm a huge fan of this. Jack White did the same thing when I saw him last year.

Amen, and a big hallelujah to this!    

Here's hoping more bands, and venues follow suit.   

[Colfax]

yeah, I'll throw in my hat and sound like an old white guy complaining about cell phone videos and pictures throughout a show. I don't like it either and think it's largely silly.

I was simply lamenting the fact that there are no tapers there to capture these great once-in-a-lifetime collaborations.

I'm just happy I got to see one of these shows with Bobby.

and fwiw, the staff at Lakewood was running around doing their best to ruin everyone's show to enforce this. People who were checking what time it was or just texting or whatever were bothered by roving bands of staff. It was a little excessive.

I prefer to think of myself more a "seasoned vet" than old.   

There were tapers at these shows from what I'm hearing.  The West Palm show is already up on archive, and I'm sure more audio will follow.

Glad you got to see Bobby, and I sure wish he was opening one of the shows I'm going to. A bit bummed he's only doing the first four, but glad for MMJ that they got to jam with him, and for all the fans that got to see it. Here's hoping it leads to something more down the road.

[bhyman]

I'm not a big fan of cell phone tapers at all, so I am ok with the no videotaping rule as long as they permit real audio tapers.

Were the video screens working at the Nashville show? Was the no videotaping rule the reason why they did not have the large screens operating at Lakewood Amphitheater in Atlanta? That seems kind of crappy to the people that paid for a lawn ticket.

No one has said it yet so I will... The wilco set was half amazing and half shit. Was it just where I was standing or was the sound really jacked up?

At the same time... misunderstood was the highlight of the night for me, along with MMJ/weir brown eyed women

can someone give me the wilco setlist from last night? the sound was shit? or the wilco songs were shit?

[Shug]

A fan from the Wilco board reports this with the caveat that it might not be the right sequence:

Blood of the Lamb
Airline to heaven
Mountain Bed
Side with the seeds
Misunderstood
Bird Song > Tomorrow Never Knows (with Bob Weir)
Laminated cat
Born alone
Impossible Germany
Jesus Etc.
Hoodoo Voodoo

[bartel]

thus far this tour is bringing out the best with MMJ and Wilco. this was posted on the wilco FB page.

Blood of the Lamb
Remember the Mountain Bed
Side with the Seeds
Misunderstood
Art of Almost
Jesus, Etc.
Bird Song - Grateful Dead cover, w/ Bob Weir
Tomorrow Never Knows - The Beatles cover, w/ Bob Weir
Passenger Side
Impossible Germany
Born Alone
Laminated Cat
Hoodoo Voodoo

The Wilco facebook page poster has been getting the setlists wrong lately.  I think they are using the written setlist, but the band is changing the set mid show.  Wilco fans can be pretty anal-rentitive about stuff, so I'd guess the setlist the fan wrote down is more accurate, but I don't know for sure.

I must say, it was really nice to not have a bunch of little screens and flashes in your face for the entire day. I'd be ok if that became the norm for shows.

I noticed this too. It almost sounded muddied or something. Still, for my first Wilco show, it was amazing. I'm definitely a fan now!

[Mingus Rude]

I also thought that Wilco sounded like shit in Atlanta .Thought it might be the venue
That was the first time I ever thought that after seeing them 10 times .
Extended Weir Jam ate up to much of a short set.

So based on the review below, Dylan had a guest appearance by the mcCrary sisters during his encore. Sad that he has other musicians play with him, but not anyone he is touring with. Maybe that's his way of warming up to collaborating with other people. Maybe by the time this tour gets to Chicago there will be collabs. Also, would've been cool if Jack White came out and played with MMJ.

After watching Dylan for two nights, I must say I agree with Jim's comment of it being a romantic experience but past that I look at it as more if a comedown from the MMJ show...I usually feel like I've been ran over by a truck after an mmj show and after an MMJ+Wilco show it feels more like a semi...it's kinda nice to sit back and relax after our guys get done...2 great very different shows this weekend by our boys, can't wait to see what they have in store for us in T-town...I tweeted Tom to make sure Pooch has his houndstooth hat on like he did in 2011...

That's a great way of looking at the shows, Seth. It's pretty much how I was going to take them in also.  Especially since there's no rotating of the bands. With Jacket going on before Wilco, and Dylan, it's pedal to the metal from the get go for me. Hit a nice cruising pace for Wilco, and then drop it into neutral and let it coast a little while during Dylan.

Did anybody see this poster at the venue?
