Great, great show at the DPAC last night. During 'Poor Place' the crew came on and set up an entirely new drum set, etc. and they played several songs acoustically before transitioning seamlessly back into the full electric stuff. For my money, the best live act on the planet right now. They also played a Big Star cover in honor of AC.

I would love to see Wilco live, what a great touch on Thank You Friends!
I've only ever seen them with Nels (never with the camel). They really are phenomenal, and now they have such a huge catalog to pull from. Wish I would've taken the opportunity to see them when they were down here.
Did I ever tell you I saw them record an episode of Austin City Limits? Yeah, I thought I did.
My previous shows were years ago- Being There and Yankee Hotel tours. They were great then, but this lineup is the shit. Reminded me of seeing Ryan Adams and the Cardinals a few years ago- just a top notch combo firing on all cylinders and having almost a psychic connection in their playing. There's also a very appealing confidence that comes across when a band knows they are great.
You said it, Dave. The coolest thing about The Beatles appearance on Ed Sullivan is the confidence they exude knowing they're the shit.
