"Zombie" Wilco Tribute Band (yes, you read that right.)

[u2roolz]

The Sneaks as Wilco ; Nate Leavitt as Ryan Adams ; Old Jack as Jenny Lewis

 

Halloween shows like this go beyond just being a Boston tradition, says the Sneaks’ Johnny Arguedas. “Right now pop culture is in a nostalgic phase. There’s a reason movie remakes are so prevalent, it’s easy to tap into the familiar in order to evoke interest.’’ Nostalgia isn’t easy; he’s enlisted seven musicians to help flesh out the beloved alt-country band’s sound. “It may be just one night of music . . . but being able to re-create the music gives me a deeper appreciation of the source material.’’ That their version of Wilco happens to be zombies is an added bonus. “Yes, it’s corny, but Halloween itself is a little corny. That’s what makes it so fun.’

 

 

Anyone locally going to this? Who can pass up Zombie Wilco?
