Wilco - New Dates in November!

[Kieran76]

I know that there are several Wilco fans on here so I thought I would share the excellent news that they are playing a gig at Shepherds Bush Empire on the 20th May. It's a sunday which is a bit ****e, they are playing the All Tomorrows Parties thing the day before.
I am so excited, tickets not on sale yet though.

[Big Seany]

Won't eb able to make this, here's hoping they tour though. Love Wilco, prolly my fave band. Was wearing a Wilco t-shirt at the birth of my daughter!

[Swallow]

They're at ATP? Excellent news!

[Big Seany]

Got the new Wilco album today. It is an understated masterpiece. Listened to it five times in one day,love it so much

[Kieran76]

I thought the album wasn't out until May 15th? London gig sold now, I got my tickets though .
Got to go to Chessington World of Adventure on the day after with the year 6's so can't get too pissed up as I don't want to throw up on small child after while on a ride.

[Big Seany]

They put it up on their website so I burned a copy, but will be buying it for sure. It is sublime, listened to it five or six times and am just in love with it.

[Kieran76]

Just seen that Wilco have added another date on the 21st.

[Big Seany]

I can go on the 21st if anyone up for it. Am in Butlins on the 20th.

[Kieran76]

wish they had annouced the 21st date earlier, I would love to meet up with some of you ntsc/wilco fans. I reckon I could go maybe go on both dates.

How were the band, YM?

[Kieran76]

The band were ace, high geek rating in the crowd though. It was rammed in the venue and because we were on the floor we had a poor view. I would have prefered to have been higher up. Tweedy's voice was sublime and the bad seemed to really enjoy themselves. Played a good mixture of new and old.
Either Or
Sky Blue Sky
Impossible Germany
Shot in The Arm
Via Chicago
Handshake Drugs
Hummingbird
The Man Who Loves You
Kidsmoke - (that rocked)
Late Greats
At Least Thats What She Said

Not in that order though, and there were others but I can't remember off top of my head. Only shame was they didn't play I Can't Stand It. I would love to see them again with more energetic crowd and better view.

[Swallow]

Shame when the crowd's like that

Good to hear the band are enjoying playing together, but that seemed fairly obvious from the record. Happy days indeed

[Kieran76]

Just read that Wilco are playing a four dates in England in November.
Manchester - Nov 2nd
Newcastle - Nov 3rd
Birmingham - Nov 4th
London - Nov 5th

If anyone is interested in coming to see them at London we could meet up.

[Big Seany]

I may well take you up on that. It is about bloody time I saw Wilco again, tbh

[Kieran76]

It's a Monday night which is a shame. but you can always kip at chez Taylor if you need to.
