Wilco kicks off an extensive US tour tomorrow night in the first of two sold-out shows at the Pabst Theater in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Although both shows are sold out, Wednesday's set will be broadcast live at the Roadcase section of the band's site, wilcoworld.net. Milwaukee fans get some extra Wilco time tonight, as the band throws out the first ball at tonight's Milwaukee Brewers game in Miller Park. Should make for an interesting game, after the band's hometown Cubs beat the Brewers 8-5 last night. For tonight's game, Milwaukee hosts the Cincinnati Reds.
