The first actual band that I ever saw live was Mission of Burma with WILCO at the Fleet Boston Pavilion in 2003. It was great. Mission of Burma kicked ass. Just an electric set. It was the first time the band perfromed together in over 20 years and they didn't miss a beat!
Wilco was ok. They're set was so-so. I was expecting them to be much better than that. It really negatively affected my judgement of the band for quite some time. It wasnt until later that I realized that the band was much better than that performance lead me to believe. they had just had a bit of an off night. Apparently the band members were going through drug withdrawal. I can understand now.
