MoF Tour Setlists, Reviews, Pics, and Tour Posters

[Tieoptional]

I am starting by listing the Vancouver setlist. From there, I will try to keep a running tab of what songs are played as the tour progresses. (I am not going to try to keep track of play order - that will get too complicated.) Note: this info is as accurate as I can make it, but it is also pieced together from lots of different sources and may not be exact.

Also, please add show reviews and show pics and tour posters as available. Comments and corrections welcomed!

Awesome thanks man!   Are you saying there were even more songs than you show on that list!?!?!?! :o

That's what the review said - that this was a partial list "from a photo taken of the setlist on the soundboard." The review also says 30+ songs, but only 24 songs are listed...

I guess time will tell.

...i'm sure they had to have played 'the right place'

...i'm sure they had to have played 'the right place'

Yes, along with "The Right Place" there are a couple of others from the new album "missing" too:

Whole Lotta Losin'
Man Named Truth

Somebody that actually attended the whole show will have to fill us in as to how accurate all this is.

It will be interesting to see whether this changes very much as the tour progresses.

I have to wait until the show in Chicago on the 30th.

At the risk of erecting some nipples on here, I came across this fan review on the Wilco board.  SPOILER ALERT!!!

"Okay, real fast, cause I really need to get to bed, but the quick lowdown on the show: they played every song off the album (I'm pretty sure of this, at least...haven't looked at the tracklisting, but off the top of my head I can't really think of a song they didn't play), plus 5-7 from each of their band's catalogues. It was these reworkings, some solo and some full-band, that generated most of the highlights. Never been a huge fan of Oberst and don't really know much of his material beyond Cassadaga, and off that they played Soul Singer and Limetree, plus a few other songs that I recognized but don't know the names of. This was my second time seeing Matt (the last time was at a festival) but he showed off his guitar chops and musicianship much more this time around, and I was actually quite impressed. His first solo song was a Hundred Million Years (could be off on the title, but it's off Hold Time) and it was fantastic. Again, drawing a bit of a blank on what else he played...

I'm a huge My Morning Jacket fan, and so the major draw here was definitely Jim, and he didn't let down whatsoever. Stole the show, as far as I'm concerned, and that's even with him being stuck behind the bass for a lot of the MoF songs. Him and Will Johnson played an unfuckingreal rendition of Bermuda Highway...that alone was worth the price of admission right there. He also played I Will Be There When You Die (with Conor, who was quite the weak link on this song, unfortunately), Golden, Smokin from Shootin (full band, and they slaughtered this song), and opened the encore with a stunning version of At Dawn.

Mike Mogis is quite the secret weapon.

All the guys hopped around and shared the instrumental duties a fair bit (Johnson was on the kit for the entire show except Bermuda Highway). Again, I know I'm forgetting a fair bit, but that's the best I can do for now."

WOW :D :D ........ :D

[tragicallyphish]

HOLY SHIT, all I gotta say is go.  Amazing show simply amazing.  Closer to 3 hours. They all came out in suits and switched off instruments.  Keys, Bass, Guitar, Drums (some guy named Will Johnson).  Mike Moogis killed the slide and really added to the tracks.

Every song from the album sounded way better (except Sandman Brakeman, it seemed really slow at first and then sped up).  The crowd seemed only into the Bright Eyes song which was interesting when I was loosing my shit for MMJ. I got a set list from the light guy.

1. Whole Lotta Losin

3. Soul Singer
4. Man Names Truth
5. We are Nowwhere - (Oberst & Moogis)

10. Out Of My Head (Yames & Ward)
11. Slowdown Jo
12. Dear God
13. Magic Marker
14. To Save Me
15. Baby Boomer
16. Ahead Of The Curve
17. Temazcal

19. Yames & Conor Oberst

So was What a Wonderful Man the song Jim played with Connor? Because it was mentioned in the first post that it was played and I don't see it anywhere else on that setlist, which is amazing by the way.

I think it was I Will Be There When You Die, mentioned in marino13's post.

Why am I not going to one of these shows???  :'(

[Soulshine]

L'ville is going to be f*cking sick

[marino13]

This reminds me of sitting around with your friends the day after everyone got hammered, piecing together what each person remembers from the evening so you can get a full idea of what happened. ;D

[capt. scotty]

damn...i might need to suck it up and go to Philly  :o

I kept thinking they would open with an MOF song, and what would be a good opener, and kept coming back to Whole Lotta Losing because it just seemed like a great song to set the tone for the show. Cool to see they opened with it.

What A Wonderful Man?! No way? WAY  :D

[marino13]

Maybe it's Wonderful (the way I feel) instead of WAWM?

[xmascriminal]

Maybe it's Wonderful (the way I feel) instead of WAWM?

It says on the full setlist that Look at You wasn't played so my guess is that Jim just decided to play What a Wonderful Man instead. Hopefully on the omnichord, which I really hope he busts out in Louisville.

[Tieoptional]

Maybe it's Wonderful (the way I feel) instead of WAWM?

That could be! It just said Wonderful and I assumed WAWM...

In fact, Wonderful (the Way I Feel) makes sense given James/Ward performance of that song at My Morning Jacket Live SXSW Austin 2008.

[bold99]

that set looks great....but selfishly I hope at some point Will Johnson sings a song or two of his...the guy is insanely talented with Centromatic and his solo stuff.  I know he sang a few on the Patterson Hood tour and Patterson and Jason Isbell cover a few of his songs.

[bslaby1]

Setlist looks great...anyone know of any video that has surfaced yet?
