Wilco at Coney Island – Written Setlist and Show Recording Coming Soon

July 14, 2009
By

Above is the actual setlist for tonight’s Wilco show, donated by Wilco’s soundman Stan — who did a superb job at tonight’s baseball stadium show at Coney Island’s Keyspan Park.

What is not noted on the setlist is the mindbending joining-forces of Wilco and Yo La Tengo for the most out there version of “Spiders” we have ever seen.

We recorded the show with the four-microphone rig from inside the soundboard area. The long train ride home offered an opportunity to listen on headphones and it really came out quite excellent, despite the pitfalls (wind and distance) of an outdoor event. The recording is coming to nyctaper ASAP. We also recorded Yo La Tengo’s opening set and that will follow shortly thereafter.

    i’m so happy you recorded this show.

    You and I was great with Feist and You Never Know was much better live than when they played it on the tonight show.

    They played The Late Greats in the second encore instead of Monday, oh well.

    We sat right behind you in the bowl, directly behind the SBD. It really was well mixed. It was my girlfriends first Wilco show & she loved it. How cool was it when they removed the white tent over the SBD, well how cool was it for us. :)

    Thank you so much for all your efforts, I’m looking forward to hearing your capture.

    Ha! That removal of the white tent was pretty scary at first since if something went wrong it would have all come down on me and my equipment. Fortunately, the guys were totally adept and had it down quickly. The roar from the section of seats directly behind was hilarious.

    They played The Late Greats instead of Monday…Not that I’m complaining. Wilco, it is alright that you didn’t follow your setlist. We forgive you…
