Dan and Matt Wilson Return for their second-ever Twin Cities duo show: at the Pantages Theater in Minneapolis, February 1st, 2013.
The pair will play music from all (or most) phases of their illustrious pasts and presents, including songs by Trip Shakespeare, Semisonic, The Twilight Hours, The Love Monsters, and their solo recordings. The set will surely include some judiciously chosen covers and quite likely some new numbers as well.
The brothers' first duo concert was documented in a download-album of the entire show, "Dan and Matt Wilson, Minneapolis 2010." See below for details.
Tickets go on sale Friday, November 9 at 11:00 AM.
Download album, "Dan and Matt Wilson, Minneapolis 2010"
Back in March of 2010, Dan and Matt Wilson played a long-awaited show together at Minneapolis' Pantages Theater. Although the two brothers had been in bands together since their early teens, and had relentlessly toured the country in Trip Shakespeare, they had only done one concert together between 1994 and this year.
The Wilsons had never played a show without a band: this was their first duo concert ever.
When tickets went on sale for the gig, fans snapped them up in one short morning and many were left without a way to hear the show. Happily, the gig was recorded by the brothers' long-time sound mixer Brad Kern, and over several days, Brad worked feverishly to mix the files for immediate release. During the concert, Dan suggested that some of the chit chat and casual banter between songs could be edited out of the eventual live recording. But the audience weighed in strongly that the concert be reproduced in full, and it was decided.
Two versions of the concert are now available: one is the complete audio mix of the show, the second version includes the audio plus a portfolio of rehearsal, soundcheck, and performance photographs and album artwork.
$30 Deluxe Package

RECEIVING WINRAR: DIAGNOSTIC ERROR MESSAGES WHEN EXTRACTING FILES ON A PC?
Some users have reported error messages when extracting (unzipping) the files on PCs such as “The system cannot find the path specified. Total path and file name length must not exceed 260 characters.” While this is a non-critical error and you’ll still be able to open the files, we’d like your experience be error-free. To fix this, simply right click on the .zip file and select EXTRACT. When asked for the destination path, change the default folder name from “Dan_And_Matt_Wilson_Full_Concert_Audio_Portfolio_Of_Rehearsal_Soundcheck_Live_Photos_Album_Art” to something shorter, such as “Dan_And_Matt_Wilson.”
