Photos: Wilco + Nick Lowe – Overture Hall, Madison

Only a few seconds into “Art of “Almost” from Wilco’s new album, The Whole Love, you know that you’re in for an exciting listen. It’s my favorite album the band’s done in years and couldn’t be more excited about their current tour, which includes Nick Lowe opening things up each night. It doesn’t get much better than that.

While I wait for the band to swing through Austin in December, Ed Oliver took in last night’s show at Overture Hall in Madison and brought back the beautiful photos you see.

Discuss: Did you make the show? Leave a comment with your thoughts/reviews of last night’s concert.
