Wilco setlists: Tulsa 10/22 & Irving 10/23

Okay, so Wilco has been playing very similar setlists this fall on their Ode to Joy tour, but, as John Travolta’s Vincent Vega said in PULP FICTION, “It’s the little differences.” For example, “Summerteeth,” which made its tour debut at the band’s in-store at Grimey’s last weekend, showed up again at Cain’s, and songs like Mermaid Avenue’s “Hesitating Beauty” and Schmilco’s “Someone to Lose” have popped up lately too.

So here’s how the last few shows went down:
