WILCO

my favorite band is probably wilco. i have seen them 4 times. i have seen them at the majestic, royal oak theatre, michigan theatre in ann arbor, and at uof m. each time has been a bigger place and more people. i think wilco are more than deserving of a large fan base but it sucks for me. each time my tickets have gotten sucker and sucker. when i saw them in the hill auditorium at u of m last fall i was in the balcony. when i first saw them at the majestic i was about 8 people back from the stage. i just got tickets for their june show at meadowbrook in rochester hills. yech. it is one of those places with a pavilion and lawn tickets. the tickets went on sale friday and i got mine today and i got row TT!!!! i tried to buy some tickets that went on sale early for fans right at the time they opened up but they were already gone.

good point--i am going to see WILCO.
bad point--sucky seats at a big venue.
hopefully one of my kids won't get sick so i don't have to miss this show like i missed westerberg (uggh i just felt sick to my stomach with the realization i missed the show)
(holy shit....there was just a kmart commercial on tv and the song was rock lobster by B52's)

good point--got to see John Stirratt perform at a small bookstore in East Lansing with only about 20 people in March.
bad point--still have sucky seats at a big venue.
