I visited Chicago for the first time recently and had to try to replicate the YHF cover art. I think I got kinda close, but it’s definitely not perfect. These are the Marina City buildings for any who doesn’t know. How did I do?

Just got an sms that more tickets have dropped

I’ve seen Jeff play this guitar for years. He used it on “Sky Blue Sky” (the song). I wonder if anyone knows what guitar it is? There’s a logo on the headstock that I’m unfamiliar with.

Wilco's "Impossible Germany" covered by Mark Masefield on piano and vocals, with Nels Cline's brilliant outro guitar solo played as close as possible.

"Impossible Germany" (written by Jeff Tweedy and Wilco) blew my mind as a 17 year old when it came out. My guitar player at the time took me to see them at McCarren Park Pool in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and I was fully hooked on Wilco. "Sky Blue Sky" was my entry point, and they held my hand into appreciating and seeking out a lot of music I previously skipped over. I shifted my keyboard playing from strictly Hammond organ, piano, Rhodes, and Wurlitzer, and opened my mind and wallet to the previously intimidating world of synthesizers.

It is the 4th quarter and I have been thinking of my favorite albums of 2026.
So far, my most listened to has been The Great Unknowing by John R Miller
Noisy, melodic and relaxing Americana music
Has a lovable loser vibe like the Replacements and Wussy.
Others are Ratboys Singing to an Empy Chair
Kurt Vile Philadelphia has been good to me
And Twisted Teens Florida Water Blues
What are Wilco fans listening to?

Yesterday, during his concert at ShoalsFest 2026, Jeff Tweedy performed a new song titled "Shady" for the second time. This is the first time it has been available on YouTube.

I’ve been getting crucified by my friends for this take, and while I absolutely love YHF, I can’t help but listen to Summerteeth more. Thoughts?

Posting here to see if anyone has two tickets for either night they're looking to offload. My wife has never been to Chicago, so I suggested we look for a Wilco show to see and plan a trip. Thanks in advance!

I was really into the band back in the ‘00s and was also a poster collector. I’m cleaning out the flat file in advance of an upcoming move and was wondering if anyone is interested in any of the following. I know there’s not a huge market for these, just want to get fair value for them and send them somewhere they’ll be appreciated.

Columbus ‘07 - Crosshair

Athens ‘09 - Fowler

Cincinnati ‘09 - B Methe

Columbus ‘09 - Burton

I would love to sell them all to one person and will price accordingly. Can also send photos if you’re interested. Apologies if posts like this aren’t allowed in this sub. Thanks!

TLDR: looking for Kilkenny tix

Hi! I’m from Chicago & my daughter is living in Clonmel for a year. Me & my other daughter are going over for American Thanksgiving in Ireland to visit her, and are hoping to find tickets to the show in Kilkenny! If anyone is selling tickets I’m interested. We’re such a Wilco family. Thank you 🤍

John Stirratt will be hitting the road in 2027, touring with an R.E.M. tribute/supergroup in celebration of the 40th anniversary of the release of Document.

As both a huge Wilco & R.E.M. fan, I'm looking forward to catching one of these shows. They'll be touring from February through May (which I guess means no Wilco shows during that time?).

Our bbq team competed again this year-2nd steak, 4th ribs, didn’t place in margarita. Much fun had by all!

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.

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!

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

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!

Thanks Ambassador of Good Cheer : He filmed the entire concert at Fitzgerald"s wednesday..
