This spring, indie band Wilco will join the Rolling Stones, the Decemberists and James Taylor as the next popular musical act to hit Missoula.
UM Productions announced this morning that Chicago-based Wilco will perform in the Adams Center on May 5. Ticket presales for UM students, staff and faculty begin at 10 a.m. March 18. General ticket sales begin 8:30 a.m. on March 21. Tickets are $24 with a valid Griz Card or $29 without.
Wilco has been nominated for four Grammy Awards since the late 1990s, and their album A Ghost Is Born won Best Alternative Music Album in 2004. Most recently, their album Sky Blue Sky was nominated for Best Rock Album in 2008. Wilco performed for a third time on Austin City Limits in September 2007 and appeared on Saturday Night Live earlier this month.
The Missoula show will begin at 8 p.m. on May 5. Doors open at 7 p.m. No opening band has been announced.

Did Mary Muse sell her soul for this concert, too?
Or did we just realize that we don’t have to bribe people to make them play concerts at UM.
