Seen them twice...what an amazing live band....Nels Cline is one of the best guitar players I have ever seen.....he could easily fit-in with any band....NIN or David Bowie would be perfect for him.

    Haven't caught Wilco on this tour...yet!! Had tickets to two different shows but scheduling conflicts with each date forced me to give them up. I was not a happy girl!! BUT, I did get to catch them twice on their tour last spring, and Tweedy this January in Champaign, IL. All three were completely awesome! Can't wait until they get back to the states for round two (assuming there will be a round two but I'm guessing it's a pretty safe wager).

    they fucking rocked at Bonnaroo. 'Bull Black Nova' sounded great live off the new one, and 'I Am Trying to Break Your Heart' was a treat -- YHF is my favorite album of theirs.

    i think that's the worst song off the new album. don't you find it a little repetitive?.......those were some killer suits though huh?

    tweedy's gotta do something with that hair, he looks like he's back on the drugs. haha.

    Were we at the same Bonnaroo? They sucked the energy out of me. Thank God that the Boss was up next.

    Strange, I was at Bonnaroo and it was Springsteen that sucked the life right out of me. He`s got some good stuff, but 3 1/2 hours was way too long. It was nice to have a few beers back at the tent before Ben Harper / MGMT / moe.

    I agree that its the weakest song on the record.
    Uninspired.

    I think one wing would have been a better single

    Saw Wilco again last night....couldn't resist!

    Feist came out and sang with them during the encore. Great show, but of the 3 shows I saw, Monday was the best.

    Such a great vibe from them onstage!

    * I just saw the Conan performance....the melody reminds me of an AC DC song....perhaps "dirty deeds done dirt cheap" ?......a very safe and tame single.
