New Wilco album / Son Volt question

[Vas Deferens]

I'm having a hard time getting into it. What do you think?
 
 P.S. Has anyone seen Son Volt in concert? I'm a big fan of Trace back in the dayz, but I'm not familiar with anything after that. I'm curious how they are in concert...

They're boring but if you've never seen them I wouldn't discourage you from going.  They just knock out the songs exactly as they are on record and they don't interact/move very much.  Their last show was heavy with Trace tunes.

Maybe I need to listen it more

I saw Son Volt years ago. I thought they were pretty good, but I also listened to really boring music back then.

the new wilco album is awesome, i'm so glad they went in this direction and not into radiohead territory

Album of the year for me so far.

this board has really dictated my listening for today. "sky blue sky" sounds pretty good, but kind of tedious. nothing objectionable, and i guess this is just kinda where they are at this point. so damn professional. but at least there are, y'know, songs.

Release date is still a month away.  Is what's out there the finished product or is it still being tweaked?

[shemptiness]

Either way I'm still geeked for the Merriweather show.  If it's anything like the last one.....
 Presale password?  I'm thinking 'germany'.  

[Summerteeth]

This Merriweather show will inherently be of lesser quality simply because the Roots will not be opening.
 
 However, Wilco's set was absolutely killer, much better than when I had seen them at the 9:30 a few months earlier.

The leaks I've seen are the masters. What you have is what it'll be.

i like the album but it feels as if they lost some of the rock & roll.
