Finally Wilco [The Tour] is coming to South Florida. The poly-phasic Chicago band will be playing on the Fillmore at the Jackie Gleason theater on Monday March 22nd. This show is long overdue given the great amount of fans that the band has in Miami. Wilco has been making music since 1994 as a band as before that Jeff Tweedy, singer and souls of the band, was playing in the alternative country band Uncle Tupelo. Their music is very eclectic, it ranges from alternative rock to Country, and it has earned the band to comparisons to Radiohead among many influential bands. Below you’ll find complete Tour Dates for the USA.
Tickets are available at the box office or at www.livenation.com.
SoyPrensa will be covering this event and bringing you a review of Wilco [The Concert].
Here’s the Trailer of the DVD: Wilco Live Ashes of American Flags to get our fix until the show:
