Jeff Tweedy Wrangles Up A (Benefit) Solo Show

If you're not quite in the Lollapalooza spirit this year or you'd rather spend $80 on a good ticket for an intimate show than a sweaty festival or maybe, dammit, you just love Wilco and are disappointed they aren't playing this year's fest, then Jeff Tweedy is coming to your rescue. And it's for a good cause. On Saturday, August 8, Tweedy - with opening support from Second City alum and current Colbert Report writer Peter Grosz - is playing a benefit solo show at Emanuel Congregation. Seating is general admission and set in three tiers by price:

• $200 VIP ticket gets up front seating, one on-site parking spot per ticket, a meet and greet with the artists and a drink ticket.
• $75 tickets will be in a reserved mid section, general seating
• $54 tickets will be in the third section, general seating.

Tickets for the 8 p.m. show go on sale Monday, July 22 TOMORROW JUNE 22nd. Be sure to check back at Natiiv Events for more details as that date draws closer. [via Leah Jones]
