I totally agree, killer set yesterday in the headliner spot. Nels was on fire, Pat had all his rock star moves going, and Tweedy and the band just nailed it from the get go and never let up.

 

The highlight set of the day for me, although the Soulive and Lettuce sets at the Royal Family Ball late night/early morning was right there with it.

Btw, Tweedy introduced You Never Know as the song that only Glenn wanted to do.

 

That's too bad that only Glenn wants to play this one, its my one of their best rockers, IMO.

Love, love, loved it. We agreed they all seemed to be in great spirits. The festival as a whole was amazing. We went to see Wilco, but saw a lot of other great bands as well. Not to mention all the great food!

Glad I'm not the only one! :D That pounding piano gets me all fired up for rocking out! Wilco kills it on this style of rock. Monday, 100 Years From Now, Casino Queen, etc. Wish they delved into this style more often.

Yeah, but they don't want to "just fall back on a bunch of easy rockers..." Maybe the 14-minute epic on the new [double?] record will fit the bill.

100 Years From Now was the first Wilco song I ever heard, and I've never seen it on a setlist or heard mention of it being played live. Like you, I'm of huge fan of the "easy rockers" and I'm always hoping to hear lots of them at a show. Especially an outdoor show, like, say, Solid Sound??!!

100 Years From Now is a Byrds song written by Gram Parsons. You can find it on the album Sweetheart of the Rodeo. The Wilco version is on the album Return of the Grievous Angel (A Tribute to Gram Parsons). I think it was played live twice in 1998.

Cool. Was it from the video they did for Sessions At West 54th that you first heard it?

No, it was the Gram Parsons tribute (Return of the Grievous Angel) in 1999. By then, I was a fan of Son Volt but unaware of the existence of Wilco. I'm pretty sure that tribute was also my introduction to Whiskeytown and Gillian Welch, so I'd have to say it was life-changing. Not to mention I'd never listened to Gram Parsons before, so it led me to him as well!

 

I know this is off-topic for this thread, but I was living New Orleans at the time, so there is a wierd, random connection. I just love little bits of synchronicity that pop up!

I have most all of the Sessions At West 54th on video, but no way to transfer the tapes. It must be out there somewhere. It was an episode featuring many of the people on the tribute album. The Wilco segment was taped when they did an episode of the show. If I recall correctly.

Okay, how crazy is this -- I'm listening to the radio and fucking Byrds playing One Hundred Years from Now is on. I cannot believe this. Analogman, are you JB?

 

Far out, man.

So I am not a raving lunatic, as my husband probably thinks, but the coincidence was too much to bear. As it turns out, the DJ played "One Hundred Years from Now" in honor of today not being the end of the world. But the blinks and bleeps of my small mind made it into a cosmic connection...if I can somehow tie everything back to Wilco, I surely will do that.
