Wilco are playing a date at HMV forum on Nov 4th. That is about a 5 minute walk to my house so I am estatic after missing the August date due to being on holiday. They are also playing a date in leeds.

Brilliant. It's looking more and more likely that I'm not going to be able to make it to London for the august show. Thanks for the heads up.Comment

Got my tickets this morning, really happy about this. One of the things I hate about concerts is the journey home. Only a 5 minute walk is a massive bonus.Comment

Maybe Yo La Tengo will be supporting... They did a few slots with Wilco this tour, and they're in London early november. Would be absolutely awesome.Comment

Well I did make it to the show last night at Troxy, after all. Needless to say, they were great for the whole 2 hours they played. It was Tweedy's birthday, so we all sung happy birthday, and a cake was brought out. It was a great atmosphere.
I'm only familiar with their YHF material and beyond, but there didn't seem to be too much from the older albums. 'I am Trying to Break Your Heart', 'Handshake Drugs' and 'Kidsmoke' sounded amazing.
The set list:
Wilco (the Song)
I Am Trying To Break Your Heart
Company In My Back
Bull Black Nova
You Are My Face
One Wing
A Shot in the Arm
Radio Cure
Handshake Drugs
Nothing’severgonnastandinmyway (again)

Walken
I’m The Man Who Loves You
—————————————————————-
At Least That’s What You Said

Heavy Metal Drummer
Spiders (Kidsmoke)
I’m A Wheel

Definitely see them in November if you can. I might go again, if I can spare another £30.Last edited by Champloo; 26-08-2009, 20:14.Comment
