In the "highly anticipated album" realm, we have Wilco news! The new album will be entitled Sky Blue Sky and is scheduled to be released on May 15 (Nonesuch). According to my friend Rich, the new album will include the following tracks:
On And On And On
The Thanks I Get
Walkin'
Impossible Germany
What Light
Let's Fight
Either Way
Let's Not Get Carried Away
You Are My Face

I'm pretty excited. It's been waaaay too long since the last Wilco album...
