    • WILCO may have just wrapped up a tour, but that doesn't mean you can't see them out there on the road. Nels and Glenn have a few shows scheduled during the break in the band's tour schedule. They are also playing a show together on July 29th in Milwaukee.

    I've also been doing some updates to the Google Earth file of Wilco venues & tours. Check it out if you get a chance. I'd appreciate any corrections you have as well. I know many of the venues are in the wrong location since I only have them placed by their city, and not the actual street address. So, check out the venues in your city, and drop me a line if you have any corrections.
  • 03/07/2006 - Wilco Hits The Road Again

    • Check out the Wilcoworld Shows page for the Wilco Spring tour schedule.

  • 02/02/2006 - Jeff Tweedy Letters To Santa shows

    • For the past few years, The Second City Chicago holds a 24-hour improv marathon called "Letters To Santa" which provides presents for needy children and families in the Chicago area. Jeff Tweedy has performed during the marathon for the past few years. The past 2 years, there has been an auction for a private living room concert with Jeff. I've finally gotten around to posting the setlist for the 2005 show. This year, there will be three private living room shows, two of which have already taken place. One of the 2006 setlists is here (complete with a first hand review and photos).
  • 01/21/2006 - New Jeff Tweedy solo & Wilco tour dates

  • 12/09/2005 - Google Earth file updated

    • Planning a road trip to see the recently announced Jeff Tweedy shows? I've updated the Google Earth KMZ file to include the latest shows and tours. Just open the file in Google Earth and open the Tours\2006 folder to view the tour path for Jeff's next tour.

    I'll try to keep this file updated as new dates are announced. The Google Earth KMZ file is also now available via the link located near the bottom of the menu bar on the left of all pages.
  • 12/04/2005 - View Songs Played by Tour

    • Yes, that's right... 2 Updates to the Songs Played page in the same day!
    This time, I've added "Tour" selection to the filter form. When you select a tour, the page will lookup the start and end dates, and set them for you automatically.
    I still need to enter the final tours of this Fall, but there should be enough here to keep you busy until I get them entered.
    I've given each tour a generic name, based on the season. If you know of a better name for the tour, please let me know and I'll get it updated.
    For something funny, check out the Fall 1997 tour - Passenger Side was played 10 times in 5 shows!
  • 12/04/2005 - Songs Played Update - added column sorting

    • I've added the ability to sort the columns on the Songs Played Page. Just click on the column header text and it will sort that column. Click the same column to switch between ascending/descending sort. This makes it much easier to see which songs only got played once or twice, and the songs that got played at every show.

    The WFUV interview from when Jeff was in NYC is now available in their archives. Listen to it here. Near the end of the interview, there is some insight on how Jeff comes up with the setlists. They even mention "this crazy site", and the Wilco Lyrics Archive.
  • 11/21/2005 - Songs Played

    • I realized the new Songs Played page has everything the old one had, so I just replaced the old one with the new Songs Played page I added yesterday.
  • 11/20/2005 - Attention Statistics Geeks

    • I've added a new page to the site. For lack of a better name, it's called the Songs Played by Date page. It's similar to the Songs Played page, but this one gives detailed setlist information per show.
    Here's the page for Jeff Tweedy's current solo tour
    You will see each song played and it's position in the setlist each night. Cumulative stats are also displayed on a per song basis.
    The table it generates is so wide that the navigation bar on the left of the page gets squashed. I'll have to fix that another time. I wanted to get this page live while Jeff is still touring.
  • 11/07/2005 - What's New RSS Feed

    • I've added a new RSS feed that will list the Bonus Material items added to the site in the last 30 days. This includes concert reviews, photos, posters, CDR artwork and setlist scans. Subscribe to this feed and you will be kept up to date with newly added content.
  • 11/06/2005 - Tweedy on Tour

    • Jeff played the first show of his solo tour last night. Looks like you will be in for a real treat if you get a chance to see him over the next few weeks. For me, I'll have to wait for the first recordings to roll in.

  • 7/15/2005 - Where's Wilco

    • ...Or should I say, where was Wilco. I've been playing around with Google Earth and I've managed to plot all the venues Wilco has been to over the years. Of course each venue has a list of shows played there, along with setlist links. Here's the KMZ file which you can load right into Google Earth. Enjoy.
    Oh, and in case you were wondering.... Yes, I'm working on adding a Google Maps interface to this site. Stay Tuned.

  • 4/26/2005 - On The Road Again

    • The guys have hit the road again so that means it's time to dust off the site and do some updates. I'll try to keep up with the setlists as I get them. It's been awhile since I've had time to update the site, so my inbox is full of corrections and other additions to older setlists. I have artwork for some new and old shows -- look for an update later this week.
    Don't forget about the What's New page, it will give you links to the most recent Bonus Material updates.
    This just in.... June is shaping up to be a busy month. Stay tuned to the Wilcoworld Shows page for the latest updates.

    A big thanks to the initial group of cover art artists for the content, I couldn't have done it without them.
  • 2/20/2005 - What's New Page

    • The What's New page will list Bonus Materials that have been added to the site in the last 30 days. It has a section for each type of item, and the items within each section are sorted based on the date they were added, with most recent at the top.

    You can always find the most recent setlists listed on the main menu or in the RSS feed.

    I'm also in the planning stages of adding user created artwork for Wilco recordings. If you create artwork and would like to have your art entered into the database, drop me an e-mail.

I'd like to take this opportunity to put a call out for scanned images of ticket stubs and setlists. Just use the contact link on the menu to send me your images. My main focus is keeping the setlists updated, but as time permits, I will add bonus material -- it just makes for a complete record of past shows.

    While I was updating this show, I took a look at the calendar for February 1997, and noticed that Wilco only had 5 days off for the entire month!

    As some of you may have noticed, there's a problem with setlists on dates when there are two shows on the same day.
