Okkervil River to open for Wilco

Okkervil River opening for Wilco? Pretty cool show.

Unfortunately, we raced to Ticketmaster.com and bought two Wilco tix for Keyspan Park thinking Okkervil was playing that show, too. Pays to actually read entire news items. So...who's coming with?

In related news, a few days ago we put together a brief obit for the Daily News on Jay Bennett. Should have posted it on RIB but didn't (as we do almost as a rule). You can read it here.
