I Was Tamed By Rock And Roll

Last night [June 26th], I saw Wilco again, this time at Warsaw in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. And I tell you what, last night's set kicked the Hammerstein's show's ass. Not to say that there weren't downers at the show last night. It was super crowded, and the people trying to dance just pissed everyone off cause that resulted in stepping on feet and elbowing sides. The other downer was that it was so f'ing hot in Warsaw. Steph said she felt like she was at Coachella again. But I said it was worse, because at Coachella there's an amazing breeze at night and at Warsaw it was just humid and sticky. All that aside, Wilco played a pretty phenomenal show last night. It lasted for about 2 1/2 hours, and I could've listened for 2 1/2 more.


Jeff Tweedy wasn't as talkative as he was the night before. Last night they were down to business, opening with "Sunken Treasure," which made the crowd SO rowdy. Later in the set came "Handshake Drugs," "Pot Kettle Black" and "Hummingbird." But it was the encores that made the show really special. First encore: "Either Way," "Ashes of American Flags," "Reservations" (!), and "Spiders (Kidsmoke)." Second encore: "Hate It Here," "The Late Greats," "Hoodoo Voodoo" and "Outta Mind (Outta Sight)."
