r/wilco

I'm glad they do of course but it must be exhausting!

So they dropped a new live album (Yellow) last night. I was disappointed with the production value of the first two. I don't know much about music production, but the mix does not sound great. It sounds like it was just pulled straight from the soundboard and released. I was really hoping that by the third one they would have corrected it. Compared to Kicking Television or any live albums that other major bands release (check out one of the hundreds of live Phish releases), these sound terrible. Which is too bad because having seen Wilco 40+ times over the years I can safely say they are an incredible live band. Just wish it translated to the live records better.

Hey guys, I went to the children in Evansville Indiana. I felt so processed. I thought we would get seats that were pretty good at $100 each and we're next to the nosebleeds. Nobody stood until the second set. I'm 42 and I felt like it was only younger ones there. There's so many of us that love your music. We just can't access it now. We're priced out. I know you guys need to pay the bills, but it was hard. Really hard for something I love.

Amazon just told me there's a new record. Can't see a tracklist or Album art,but it's downloading ....

Did anybody happen to get a picture of the merch at last night’s show? If not, could someone going tonight be willing to snag a pic? Would love to know what I’m walking into financially at my show!

Does anyone know if there's a "complete" version of this Wilco live performance in Canada in '97? I always thought it ended kind of abruptly, but I've never found another version (btw, my favorite performance of theirs, it's just awesome).

I don’t mean when he plays a rhythm guitar, i mean when he does solos, for example “new orleans”, “no one’s moving on”, “amar bharati” “this is how it ends”, “spiders (kid smoke), “diamond light (p1)” for example

interesting chat with Nels and Paul from Guitar World, where among other things he talks about how the solo on IG came together and how he ended up joining Wilco.
