Heading out to see Wilco in a minute. Third time I’ve fallen ass-backwards into tickets to Tweedy and Co.:

1. Suppose to cover the a2 show for my college paper, but got screwed by pr rep. a stranger handed me a ticket in front of the theater, which was suppose to be for his friend, who skipped the show to go into rehab.

2. free vip passes to d-town tastefest, which was free to begin with, but included side of stage seats and free booze.

3. tonight, media peeps at work had extra tickets. first time seeing the band in Chicago, and it comes right in the middle of their 5 night stand at the Rivera, playing all their songs (is this still happening? anybody know?).
