I've been a fan of Jeff Tweedy's work since his Uncle Tupelo days but have never seen him live. Wilco will soon be playing near me so I'm wondering who has seen Wilco live and what to expect from a live show.
It's nice to be nice to the nice.

    Nells Cline is a genius on the guitar. They are very versatile..folky, bluesy, country, and rock..put on a great show!!!

    Wilco is great live. I've seen them twice. (First time they opened for Sheryl Crow back in 96).
    Saw them last year and they usually try and play songs from all the albums usually. (Pretty nice mix anyways). There is a setlist archieve here that will give you an idea of what to expect. With a new album on the way they may play some songs from that too. It will be a great show.

    Wilco will put on one of the best shows (if not the best) shows of the year... They are quality all round. I'm seeing them in Delaware soon and am so pumped for this show. I have seen them twice both times were sensational.

    seen them many many times-never disappointed
    Along with PJ and MMJ, they are one of the best live acts out there right now.

    i second wma's point. nels alone is worth the price of admission. and they'll go as far back as AM. you'll usually get one of the billy bragg songs but nothing from tupelo or golden smog.

    I have also seen Wilco three times and they are worth every penny. I will be seeing them in Portland, Maine in July and am pumped because not only will I see one of the best bands around, but Conor Oberst & The Mystic Valley Band are opening for them. Great one two combo!
