Wednesday, August 22 Wilco a Go-Go

In case you haven't heard, there's a little band called WILCO playing Edgefield tonight. It's sold out, but a little web homework reveals plenty of opportunities for tickets outside of price-gouging websites (just keep in Wilco plays Edgefield tonight.mind that the band doesn't actually make more money if you cave and pay over face value, but then again neither does TicketMaster so maybe it evens out). The band released Sky Blue Sky earlier this year to the apparent chagrin of hipsters and delight of dads everywhere. Personally, I like it. I mean it's no Being There or yankee hotel foxtrot, but Wilco could announce a Nickelback covers album and I'd be on board (you know it would probably be pretty good). Then again, I'm getting a bit long in the tooth. If you go, get there early, opening act Richard Swift is no slouch either (plus, dads famously bogart lawn space with their blankets).
