After seeing Wilco live back in March at the Mobile Civic Center Theatre I was automatically hooked.When I heard that they would be releasing a new live dvd featuring scenes from their Mobile show I was pumped to say the least. The release date was set for April 18th so on that day I immediately rushed out to my local Best Buy to end up being disappointed and told it won't be in Mobile until the 28th, I was outraged. Even after the 28th Iwas still unable to find this dvd, but i felt that buying it online would be practically giving up. So last weekend I went with the Alexanders to Daphne and we ate at a place called Moes, simply amazing by the way, and we went to Malbis and the day got better when I went Barnes and Noble and there it was one of the last two dvd's left. So I got home and I immediately watched it, once again I was disappointed when I saw that their were only two songs per venue and one song from the Mobile show was from rehearsal. Honestly I was looking forward to trying to find myself in the crowd hahahaha. One big let down to this dvd would be the fact that the extra songs are a better set list than the featured songs. Other than these cons my favorite song Hummingbird was not featured. All in all the dvd is worth buying and owning only because it's Wilco and no other reason. There was one hilarious line from Jeff Tweedy when he says, "If this happens to be the best rock and roll show ever , there will be an astrict next to it because I am on steroids, yea I'm totally F@#$%@*ripped for this show." I honestly didn't see the need for dropping the "F" bomb but it was still hilarious. Hopefully the album that is set to come out on June 30th will not let me down like this dvd did and thankfully I will be getting mine from itunes and not trying to find it here in Mobile. Well, until next time I bid you ado.
