Hey, everyone, it’s Wilco week! I’m not going to any of the shows, but I’m sure plenty of you are.
I’ll be at Schubas on Saturday night for Noam Pikelny and friends. Banjo!
If you’re not doing anything on Sunday night, my band, Jungle of Cities, is playing at the Abbey Pub. We go on at 9, and there’s no cover. You should definitely come out.
