I can honestly say that JT's involvement with UncleTupelo has no bearing on my favorable appreciation of Wilco. I view those two bands independent of each other or as independently as I can.

You should give that album another listen. I totally love that band, I would go to Wilco just to see Low. He's right....you should. Their music translates well in a live setting...especially songs from past gold like "Long Division". I'd be interested to see how this new record sounds live. Nice to...

Some are luckier than others....

MEC opening for SonVolt?!?? If those shows are in your proximity, you've absolutely got to go and you should get to the venue early....Jason Molina & his troubadours can deliver the goods. Seriously.

Jeesuz, there's more to the midwest than Chicago and the TwinCities. No date in Madison or Milwaukee, WTF? We're even a Blu...
