Folk rockers Wilco have announced their return to Australian shores in April for three shows across the east coast.

 

The band was last in Australia in 2003 as part of the Big Day Out tour.

 

Their last album 'A Ghost Is Born' won multiple Grammys and front man Jeff Tweedy's recent live solo EP 'Sunken Treasures' received widespread critical acclaim.

 

You can check the band out in April at:

fuck the grammies :lol

I'll second that.

 

Hopefully the new album is out in April, I am pretty happy to hear Jim O'Rourke mixed it. I just love the guy's work as a producer, mixer, solo artist, and all the bands and projects he has been in.

I knew about those 2, but I didn't know that 2 are already considered as "multiple" ;)

that and they only won one of them if remember correctly. they've been nominated a few times, those ones and one of the Mermaid records.

I think both Mermaid records were nominated for something, there's the famous story from the 1998 (I think) ceremony where Puff Daddy thought Tweedy was an usher and there's a bonus clip from the I am Trying To Break Your Heart film where John and Jay are seen riding from the Grammy's in 2001, lamenting their loss.

Mr Frog, I happy to speak! I share little joy with you! You pleasure me with your delight, and I do not want to make the bubble burst for you, but Mr Jeff Tweedy is not making special visit to the UnderDown only for your account and perseverance in long suffering style all "Strewth" with the cork dangle shake of head. It is to make the little pilgrimage on 20th anniversary of most famous tour. I make present of summary details of benefit to all:-

I make great apologies to be boy who takes bubble and bursts it, however you have been making math wrong. It is a glorious 30th anniversary, it being 2007 and tour being in 1977.

 

I am hoping no offenses were made, but correctness in all things is good.
