Last time they hit New York back in '04, with a couple of solo Tweedy shows thrown in along the way - so it's been awhile since they've played The Big Apple and I'm extremelly excited to see them again despite the fact they're playing the Hammer.

Also if you pre-order the new album you'll get some nifty extras....

Every album pre-order will get a free video download (compatible with iTunes, iPods, or playable in Quicktime on your computer) of Wilco performing a track from Sky Blue Sky at their loft. The video will be available for download within the next few weeks and we will notify you when it is ready.
