No DC summer is complete without the Wolf Trap lawn
WIlco comes to Wolf Trap nearly every summer for a night or two, so I was glad to finally get to see a show. Though admittedly, a lot of the reason I was there was so I could have at least one nice night on the Wolftrap lawn with some friends before leaving DC. It was a pretty low key event and not sold out. Everyone on the lawn was sitting and unlike the Beach Boys, was instructed to do so by the staff. Ironically, folks in the pavilion who had seats were standing throughout the show. Wilco played a lot of songs that I knew and many more that I didn’t. We ventured down into to the pavilion for the encore. It was a totally different show down there, everyone was much more into it and everything was a lot harder hitting. It’s amazing how the crowd can make or break a show. I was glad that I got to see Wilco, though not sure if I would again, unless at a festival.
