Wilco were in fine
form Thursday night at the Main Stage. The band played
an energetic two hour set covering perrenial favorites
from the 'Yankee Hotel Foxtrot' and 'Sumerteeth' eras as
well songs from their latest release 'Wilco (the Album)'.
Jeff Tweedy laughed and bantered with the audience, and
at one point asked the crowd to give up their supplies
of glowsticks which resulted in the predictable meteor
shower of glowsticks onto the stage. The glowstick shower
did get tiring after about 10 minutes and had the band
dive back into the music led by some searing guitar work
by Nels Cline. He seemed posessed! Indeed, one of the
highlights of the festival for me.
