Didn’t see this posted here, but Billy confirmed a repress of all three volumes this year. Hopes to have it in time for Solid Sound. Credit to the folks at Wilco The Podcast!

quotes:

suffering is the same to everyone

warm when the sun has died

and then you cut it in half

patching where the heart is frayed

i’m left with only my desire to change

you’ve got family out there

love is the king

the universe is the only place to be

your gonna have to keep it together somehow

there isn’t any point in being free if there’s nowhere else you’d rather be

love with a love they can’t take away

how come no one’s moving on?

a more experimental album? a more classic sounding? what are your thoughts?

There's two YHF bootlegs, Demos and Engineer Demos. I have the entire Demos bootleg, but I've only been able to find some of the Engineer Demos. Most places to download them seem to be dead. Anybody able to give me a hand? Much appreciated if so.

I really enjoyed this article. It’s already pretty well documented, which the article acknowledges, but I learnt a few things I didn’t know.

I’m 52 years old and I am into listening full catalogs of music by rock bands. I have done everything from U2, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, REM to Joe Arroyo, Johnny Cash and Buck Tick. I have heard of Wilco but never heard of a song of theirs. So I went in excited and spoiler free. I was very surprised and challenged by their output. I am glad they moved away from the AM album sound (not a bad album at all, but they moved around stylistically quite a bit). There were really no skips at all throughout All their albums (although I skipped the Woody Guthrie albums because I’m not into covers of songs). So here are my Top 20 Wilco songs from a listener that will likely come back and want to see them live one day.

20. Meant to Be
21. Sometimes it Happens
22. Cousin
23. Hints
24. Hotel Arizona
25. Black Moon
26. Levee
27. Spiders
28. Mystery Binds
29. Camera
30. Unlikely Japan
31. I’ll fight
32. Evicted
33. Company in my back
34. Remember to Remember
35. Hot Sun
36. A Shot in the Arm
37. Diamond Claw
38. How to Fight Loneliness
39. One Wing

Just curious what kind of Wilco “fan” this makes me.

Hi all! The other day I was listening to Wilco as I do most of the time (obsession might be on the verge at this point), and since their discography is so vast and spans many styles, I wanted to create my personal own “fantasy” Wilco records made up of the songs that I cherish the most as well as coming up with creative ways to imagine them as sequenced cohesive works. Here is what I’ve come up with so far, I figured no one else would find this interesting other than this subreddit so feel free to share thoughts and ideas! Cheers!

EDIT: didn’t realize playlists were not allowed to share on main posts soooo if you’d like to check them out, DM me!

Saw this tonight and.. some commenters seem familiar with this. Has this been true for awhile? Such a wild fun fact if so.

Mj Lenderman’s “Bark At The Moon” could be your dream song! A nod to Wilco’s “Less Than You Think”, this song goes from a punchy intro into a unique drowning ambient guitar outro you may know and love.
I can stop listening to this song. I’m a big fan of Mj Lenderman, and I’m aware of the influence Wilco has had on his music, but this song is really something else! He’s got some fucking great lyrics.

Awoooooooo
Bark At The Moon.

hi!! I am seeing them in a few weeks and I was just wondering if anyone has had luck getting records or cds signed? it won't make a difference in my enjoyment but I figured I would ask before the date :)

hi guys!! i made a song with some friends (as per jeff’s advice) and wanted to share it with some more friends! i tried to incorporate some of my favorite elements from Being There, Summerteeth, and A Ghost is Born. i promise i’m not trying to promote it, i just want to hear some thoughts from people with similar interests instead of my close friends (: also trying to step out of my comfort zone, as i tend to hide all my music (too scary)

no pressure to listen, but would love to hear your thoughts if you do !!

Noticed on the Wilcopodcast Instagram there was a mention from Nels that Wilco was heading into the studio this week!
“He said Jeff had sent a draft of 19 songs to the guys and they would be hitting the studio tomorrow. Nels didn’t say what it would be like but it wouldn’t be another ‘country record’”

Of course, always be respectful of the stage crew and the local crew.

That said, I’ve not seen a post here asking about your setlists, picks, or sticks. Is this a good place to start?
