this was probably my 10th time seeing Wilco over the past few years, and while the band really gave it 100%, and the setlist was amazing they were fighting a losing battle all night. The sound was absolutely terrible, and as all have noted above, the crowd was heinous. Standing in line pre-show, I heard a group in front of me that didnt even have tickets saying that they didnt need them, as long as they had a wristband and a drink they would let them in. These are the same guys that after getting in without paying went on to make everyone else (those who actually paid) have a bad night.
All I can say is I hope any first timers that wanted to see Wilco does not give on them. Sure the show was marred by a boorish crowd full of douches and a venue that could not handle the level of talent performing, but Wilco is always solid.
