Wilco
Wilco Performance of Casino Queen at La Riviera, Madrid Concert
On November 9, 2007, Wilco performed live at La Riviera in Madrid, a stop that showcased their dynamic live energy just after the release of their album "Sky Blue Sky." This 2007 album marked a notable shift, embracing a more straightforward and mellow sound compared to their earlier, more experimental work. It was around this time that Wilco was gaining a reputation for their engaging live performances, often blending genres and offering fans a unique experience night after night. Interestingly, the band had recently added guitarist Nels Cline, whose innovative playing further enriched their live shows. This performance would have felt electric, bringing the crowd together with familiar hits like "Casino Queen" while also celebrating new material that hinted at the band's evolving artistry.
