Seems like a helluva set - I'm going to the Pittsburgh show myself and I'm quite pumped. It'll be my 7th time seeing them and all have been great, but only once have I enjoyed the opener (Conor Oberst). Seeing just Wilco with these extended sets should be great!
this is a pretty hardworking touring band we are talking about. i mean, they aren't the grateful dead, but they usually tour every year. the band is from chicago, so i would say the chances of them coming to IL in the near future are pretty damn good. tweedy just did a couple shows at the vic a week or so ago.
just wait until you see nels cline play guitar live
the man is an animal
PJ and Wilco
the two best live acts out there right now (honorable mention to radiohead and MMJ)
agreed. except i would say wilco and mmj are the two best live acts out there. pj would get the honorable mention, and as much as i love radiohead, after seeing them live on the in rainbows tour, i can't put them on the level of the other three bands mentioned. got tickets to see broken social scene in september, we'll see if they could join the ranks of these bands. also hoping i get a chance to see my first arcade fire show this year if they ever schedule a tour.
jr - make sure you come and tell us how the show went for you. i'm going to see them next week in scranton and i can't wait. these 'evening with' shows are looking like marathons. the set-list you got tonight was great. i hope i get poor places in scranton and philly.
I've seen wilco 4 times and Jeff tweedy solo once and it was awesome everytime. The last time i saw them i was in huge rain storm. It came down in buckets the entire show, but the entire crowd stuck with it and it was still a good time.
they deliver like the mailman rain sleet or snow.

Ive seen BSS and AF, and they cant touch PJ, co, RH or MMJ.
But that is probably because I dont like their music as much as the other bands. I find AF to be annoying.
Different strokes...........
The other band I love to see live is spoon. They are fantastic live.
Anyway, OP let us know if you enjoyed the show! I am in for two NJ and the CT shows. Cant wait!
bss is one of my favorite bands, so i'll probably enjoy it more than you did. i'm also a huge fan of arcade fires funeral, so to hear those songs live would be special to me.
i actually thought the radiohead show was fantastic as well, but for live shows, it didn't compare to mmj, wilco or pj. they have a really cool light show and i love their music, but really, if you strip everything away, they pretty much just play their songs as is...and i didn't feel the same kind of passion from them that i get with the other bands mentioned. i still love radiohead though.
looking foward to seeing how jr enjoyed is first show as well. the set list looked great, but according to the some of the folks at viachicago, it was a strange crowd and strange performance from the band. i hear the sound was lacking a bit. i'm sure it was amazing anyway. they always are.
The "evening with" shows will set an even higher standard for Wilco.
perfect balance of mellow and rocking tunes right?
im seeing them next week in NJ and the week after in hartford, CT
What'd you think of the Fox show?
34 songs 2:45 minutes
The acoustic set was very nice. Spiders and Casino Queen were my favorites from that. Then the second half from Via Chicago on was electric and i mean that as in on fire. They just kept belting out rockin good songs. Jesus Etc is still one of my favorite songs so getting to sing it (crowd sang most of the song) and hear all of the fox crooning it was very cool.
I was hoping for one more song like kingpin or monday to close it out but the Alex Chilton cover was fitting. Probably my favorite wilco show i've attended.

Loose Fur has some good songs. He also has contributed songs to Golden Smog which were cool. Then of course their is the bands collaboration with billy bragg to put music to the old woody guthrie lyrics for the two albums Mermaid Ave Vol 1 and vol 2........
but his OLD band Uncle Tupelo with Jay Farrar (went on to form when tweedy formed wilco) was fucking awesome!
