It looked like Brendan Canty's film crew was there.  I know they did Tweedy's solo dvd and I really like their Burn to Shine discs.  I hope something good comes out of that footage, it was probably the best I've ever seen them.  The horns took some of the sky blue sky songs to the next level and the ending to the main set was amazing.

really, really good show. one of the most consistently excellent wilco shows i've seen over the past few years. the last four songs of the main set were perfect. give tweedy credit, he knows how to hire -- nels cline and glen kotche have got some serious skills and only seem to get better. although that extra guitarist/keyboardist is definitely a major tool.

awesome.
 even with the lumberjacks in front of me.
 actually, they were entertaining....mostly.

Were you near those two incredible tall guys?  I was directly behind the one in orange, and man, he had to be at least two heads taller than I am.  The odd part was that they weren't related; they never spoke and went their separate ways afterwards.  What are the odds that two guys that tall would stand right next to each other???

we were behind one guy in plaid (who i named jebidiah) and another tall guy in a blue/white plaid (dubbed Aloysius) and a shorter dude who took off his jacket to reveal a...plaid shirt. But one woven with silver lame threads! not kidding. we dubbed him "Snorky Pete" because his hat made him look like a snork. Jeb and Snorky were holding three beers each. at once. minium. sometimes 4.
 
 Jebidiah sang along with a voice that sounded like 'buffalo bill' from silence of the lambs if he sang into a large, empty can of Chock full O nuts.
 Someone warned my friend sean that jeb was about to pass out any second. which he may have. he went away and never came back....which left room for a gross make-out couple.

I wouldn't call it the best Wilco show I've seen, but it was very enjoyable. Better than the last couple of shows for sure. I agree that the run toward the end of the first set was absolutely spectacular. The encores couldn't match it and were a bit of let-down in comparison.
 
 Just once I'd like to attend a Wilco show without hearing "Heavy Metal Drummer". I'm just really tired of that song. I think the band is too. Last night's rendition wasn't their best. Maybe tonight they'll play something different? Probably not. It's such a staple.

yeah, seriously. i couldn't believe THAT was the one someone shouted out on a night when pretty much everything in their catalogue was fair game. i think "a shot in the arm" is the other one that rarely gets a night off, but that's a better song.

[fatskippy]

was there a poster at the show?

[Smylie]

yah, both a tour poster and a DC poster.  25 bucks though
 
 Im leaving in about an hour to be front of the line to get in tonight

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Why not just get there late and push your way to the front, like some groups of women think they have a right to do?

I went from row 2 in front of Jeff to about row 4 near the horns last night between John Doe and Wilco.  Those people suck.  It's different if its one person meeting a group, but when people just do it to push up...shitty

Wilco to play Virgin Fest

[Chip Chanko]

Someone up in the DJ booth area yelled it.
