Wilco to Play „The Complete Wilco“ in Chicago
With all the solo love Jeff Tweedy’s been giving his hometown recently, Wilco’s recently announced 2008 U.S. tour looked a little strange without a single date in Chicago. The band has remedied that situation, however, with a five-show residency at Chicago’s Rivera Theatre, which will kick off the tour in mid-February.
According to a press release, the residency is „five shows exploring the band’s complete recorded works,“ and Tweedy had this to say about it: „Over the five nights we will attempt the ‚complete Wilco‘ and try to clear out the dusty corners of the catalog that we haven’t attended to in a while.“
What better way for Wilco to celebrate Sky Blue Sky’s Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album (the band’s fourth Grammy nod)?02-15 Chicago, IL – Riviera Theatre
02-16 Chicago, IL – Riviera Theatre
02-18 Chicago, IL – Riviera Theatre
02-19 Chicago, IL – Riviera Theatre
02-20 Chicago, IL – Riviera TheatreTo further clarify, the plan is NOT to do the material sequentially or chronologically. Rather, they’re just going to attempt to cover it all over the 5 shows.
