I'm sort of a newer Wilco fan. Never got into the hype of Foxtrot, but got to see them a couple of years ago and they were great. I REALLY like Sky Blue Sky, and am kinda familiar with some other stuff, just never really gave them a chance. I only have a week to prepare, but wanted to sink my teeth into one or two other albums in time for the show. I started with Summerteeth, but read up on it and learned that the band as a whole was not as involved with that album, so I got the impression it's not one I would be hearing much of at a show.

Where should I start? Beight There? The last self titled album?

    Wilco do try and pull from all the records live. Wilco has had several line up changes. Wilco is a great band!
    since you have summer teeth, sky blue sky, I would go with a ghost is born, or Being there next. Also, try the live album Kicking Television, it's spectacular.
    The self titled album is great too. Wilco is one of those bands, where you can't really go wrong with a starting point.

    Enjoy the show! I'd love to see them next week myself, but kind of tight on money.
