wilco @ the wellmont theater, montclair, nj - 4.3.10

hi folks.

long time, no write. i really do apologize - i've had a crazy summer with lots of traveling and lots of work. and since i have satellite internet in the barn, i have found that working on my site takes up too much bandwidth. so i can really only work on this when i'm somewhere with a solid internet connection, which isn't very often. i didn't figure this out until after i had already started re-designing my site, so everything is kind of a mess right now and a bunch of stuff is missing. but i'll hopefully get it fixed and good as new soon!

as a result of my major lack of posts in recent months, i have a HUGE backlog of photos i took at a bunch of really great shows. so in honor of the fact that i leave a little later this morning for wilco's solid sound festival in the berkshires (!!!), i thought i'd jump right in with the photos i took at their amazing show at the wellmont theater in montclair, nj last april. they played the night before and i was there for that show, too, but i only took pictures on the second night. if you're a wilco fan, i'm sure you know all about their spring tour and how they played EPIC 3+ hour sets with no opener. and these shows were both epic and AMAZING.

here are the photos i took for night 2:

these aren't my best wilco shots - they implemented the 3 song rule and there was no pit, so i was way off to the side and away from the light. i've shot them twice before where i was positioned much better - you can see the photos from those shows here and here.

the ever-awesome nyctaper recorded both nights and both recordings are excellent. click here for night 1 and here for night 2.

more to come soon!
