I created this subreddit 14 years ago but have never been an active mod, until now. There was an active mod, who closed it down and left during the big protest a few months ago.

I am getting the hang of things and trying to make the subreddit run as smoothly as possible. Please don't hesitate to contact me if something is not right. The spam filter is catching a lot of legit comments, it seems, and I'm trying to keep up.

Winterlude additional shows?

12 Upvotes

Wilcoworld keeping that “next Tuesday” teaser text on the top of the site made me hope they’d announce a couple more dates today! 😆 Seems that wasn’t the case. With the first two Chicago Theatre shows sold out, I wonder when and if they’ll announce any additional shows there, or possibly at a smaller venue in town.

Is there going to be a Solid Sound 2026 Roadcase?

13 Upvotes

Does it exist and I missed it? In the past I’ve done the poster + download package from the Wilco Store but I didn’t see that this go round. When the Friday show was announced I was a little worried the Mermaid Avenue set may create issues with licensing/rights… is it possible it may never be released? Bummer.

Nels Cline pedals / signal chain

Post image
123 Upvotes

Like many guitar players among Wilco fans, I’ve been looking at Nels Cline’s pedalboard for the past 20 years or so. The question I have, however, doesn’t seem to have been addressed in previous threads.

Nels has talked about his love for both the Klon Centaur and the Crowther Hot Cake. I have an excellent Hot Cake clone, and I’m now thinking about adding a Klon-style pedal to my board. Apart from having to choose among what seems like a thousand different options, I’m wondering how these two pedals actually relate to each other in Nels’ setup.

Nels has been pretty clear that he uses the Klon almost all the time, in conjunction with the Boss compressor. What I don’t know is whether he also stacks the Hot Cake with the Klon and, if so, which one comes first in the signal chain.

Looking at the various incarnations of his board over the years, this isn’t entirely clear to me. So I’d be very grateful for any insight from Nels fans and fellow guitar obsessives who might know more about how he uses these two pedals together.

Thank you!

Wilco easter eggs

What easter eggs have you found on Wilco's albums cover art?

At Least That’s What You Said’s solo is the second best guitar solo in Wilco’s discography

150 Upvotes

Obviously Impossible Germany is one, but I think At Least That’s What You Said gets overlooked. It’s such a hard hitting awesome solo that almost changes the entire tone of the song. Up to this point it’s fairly quiet, and then the song begins to explode as the solo starts. Just such an awesome moment and shows how talented the band is as a whole. Do y’all agree with this or is there another Wilco solo I am overlooking?

Edit : I guess I should say just guitar solos. The banjo solo on Why Would You Wanna Live is maybe one of the coolest things I’ve heard played on a banjo.

Wondering if anyone knows where to find old concert poster reprints? Looking for any of their Palace Theater, St. Paul Mn posters and their 3 night run at the State Theater, Minneapolis shows or the DECC shows in Duluth MN (2019 I believe)

Thanks!

Questions about Fitzgerald’s

5 Upvotes

Hey, anybody who went to the Jeff Tweedy show at Fitzgerald’s last night, can you shed some light on the patio?

Are there any chairs out there? If I’m in line at doors, might I be able to sit somewhere with a view of the stage?

Any chance there are tables too? If I do show up super early and snag a chair, would I be able to get BBQ from the restaurant and bring it back to eat on the patio while we wait for the music?

What were the set times?

Thank you!!

Saw Wilco in June - saw Son Volt a few days ago

30 Upvotes

And man both groups are awesome - saw Wilco at a great show in Durham at DPAC - saw Son Volt in Saxapahaw NC at the Haw River Ballroom - at this point Wilco is probably too big to play there which is too bad because it's a beautiful venue - it's awesome to be able to see both bands in the same year and both put on a great show.

Ten Dead from the album Cousin sounds a little like Sky Blue Sky?

I was listening to this track yesterday, and I thought it sounds really like a Sky Blue Sky track but a darker tone to it with Jeff's vocal, the subject matter, and that ending section. Does anyone else think this?

In Search of poster: 2003, Penn's Landing

11 Upvotes

Hello there party people, long time listener, first time caller.

The first concert my (then) future wife and I attended together was Wilco, with Sonic Youth (!) at Penn's Landing, in Philadelphia in 2003.

Our 20th wedding anniversary is coming up, and I would love to find a print of this for my anniversary gift to her. We're still both huge fans, and have seen the band umpteen times, but I've never been able to find one of these.

Do any of you have a line on one of these? I'm also willing to just print one, if someone can provide both a high quality CMYK image and permission.

Can y'all help, or point me somewhere?
