  I’ve seen Wilco a number of times over the years and this is the tightest, most innovative lineup yet. Nels Cline will blow you away on guitar. How good is he? I once saw him perform, with a drummer, the entire Coltrane album “Interstellar Space” – on guitar, flawlessly! Insane.

  Great, great, great post.

  With one tiny exception. The track “Forget the Flowers” is repeated right after and in place of “I’m Always in Love.” Maybe this is how you got the boot?

  Thanks for blogging.

  Yup, my first Wilco show went down as the best show I’d seen thus far — and is still one of my top five and just recv’d word today the band is coming this way too! Have fun at your first live Wilco experience. Worth every penny.

  I wish i could see Wilco in september here, i was this close to getting the ticket, but then i realized there was a mandatory fraternity retreat thing, so i was pretty mad. Nevertheless, i’ll probably be seeing ben harper in dallas in november…so that ails my sorrow to an extent.

  Great post though, Tweedy’s great!

  Heather,
  you’re going to LOVE the Wilco show. I just saw them at the Greek Theatre in LA and I have to agree with the others, maybe one of the best shows I’ve seen in the last ten years.

  Hey, I’ve been trying to download the Tweedy stuff, but it won’t fully download. Have you heard this from anyone else?

  Thanks for you wonderful blog.

  Thanks for the Tweedy show. I just bought tix for two Wilco shows on their swing through the midwest. This is a great way to start the weekend.

  I’ve been a Wilco fan since the very start (Uncle Tupelo and the Primitives anyone? Yes, I am the freakin’ old, so?) and this IS the best they have ever been live. Thank you for filling up my external drive with premium goodness!

  Thank you! I saw Wilco for the first time a few years ago at the Paramount here in Seattle and I was blown away. I can’t wait to listen to this acoustic set.

  HAVE FUN – the show should be great. Wilco kicks ass. When they played Red Rocks the last time they were in town it was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen there (on par with Radiohead and Bjork). Maybe I’ll see ya there!

  You will love the show. I’ve also been following them since the Uncle Tupelo days. They’ve definitely grown into their boots, and have a powerful show to offer. What always amazes me about their shows verses their albums, is the energy. On the albums the music is very personal, strong yet stayed. Live, the same songs are anthems, part of the whole crowd. They fill every corner with replete aural satisfaction.

  Let us know how your experience is.. I get to see them the next night. And thanks for the sampler.

  Heather,

  Thanks for the post. I found another one of Jeff’s living room concert boots recently and really enjoyed it. Being a boy from Belleville I gotta love Jeff Tweedy.

  So you got to tell me if you’re a full-blown convert after the show… what’d you think? Yes, I’m still lurking ’round these parts, just quiet these days. Saw them in SD and while it was a mild Monday night in the open air, it was in a word, electrifying.

  Hi Heather,

  I am a huge Wilco fan and would love to have this show for my collection.

  The link to the download is not working or the file is no longer on the server. Please correct or reinstate the show for the few fans that are late to the post.

  Thanks!!!!
