Wilco!

This weekend we went to Wilco down at Stubb's Barbecue which is a restaurant and a giant music venue, with our friend and fellow Wilco fan Jessica. I've been looking forward to this show since I purchased the tickets two months ago. Wilco, as always, was amazing.... if they ever come to your town GO AND SEE THEM! They put on such a great show.

This is Jessica and Madelyn standing in line to get in the show.... they're showing the Wilco gang sign.

We got there early so that we could get great seats.... and it payed off big time. But, the problem with going early is that we were standing for 4 1/2 hours straight!

Right before the show started I was really happy we got such great "seats" (i.e. standing room)

Madelyn right before the show started... the guy standing behind her is the reason she's been sneezing all day.... he had to have smoked a pack in a half! Austin has a smoking ban.... but outdoor venues fall into some sort of gray area. :(

Once Wilco hit the stage the cigarette smoke, the crowd, and the standing was all worth it... they ROCKED!

Jeff Tweedy, the lead singer, was a double threat... the music was incredible and he was hilarious.

They played two encores! But it still wasn't enough.....

Madelyn (who is not the "concert going type") had a blast.... she couldn't stop talking about the show all night long. It was just so good!

I've been trying all day to find a cheap ticket so that I can go again tonight (they're playing two nights).... Hopefully I can go again!
