Wilco Played Daft Punk, Pavement, ABBA, The Beatles During Their All-Covers Set Last Night

There are only three bands I’ve seen live more than six times: Counting Crows (making me the only guy who’s never had tangled dreads to do so), Titus Andronicus, and Wilco, including twice at their own festival, Solid Sound, in West Adams, Massachusetts. I wasn’t able to make it this year, which was apparently a huge mistake: according to Gothamist, Wilco played an all-covers set last night, including songs from the Velvet Underground, Yo La Tengo (who joined them for “Tom Courtenay”), the Kinks, Television, Neil Young, the Band, Big Star, the Replacements (with Tommy Stinson), and best of all, Daft Punk. No one can resist the charms of Nile Rodgers.
