On June 18th, Wilco brought their Tour To Infinity to a sold-out North Carolina Museum Of Art in Raleigh, NC.



After a thirty-minute set from Cut Worms, Wilco hit the NC Museum Of Art's Joseph M. Bryan, Jr. Theater around 8:30 PM. The band launched into "Infinite Suprise" and never looked back.



The band sounded awesome. Numerous times during the set, Jeff Tweedy mentioned a "surprise" gig they played the night before where people didn't know who would be playing. Apparently, the show did not go over well, which kind of shocked me. Most of the people there had never heard of Wilco before.



Wilco didn't have that problem last night. The crowd loved every song they played, from the deeper cuts to the fan favorites. Along the way, they played "Handshake Drugs," "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart," "Evicted," "Jesus, Etc.," "Impossible Germany," "Heavy Metal Drummer," "California Stars" and many more during the twenty-three-song set.



Although Wilco had played the NC Museum Of Art numerous times, and even alluded to the fact that the last time they were at the venue, Tweedy said the trees were not there, this was my first time seeing a show there. I really recommend this venue to everyone. And of course I recommmend seeing Wilco any chance you get!

      • Strange Carolinas started as a hobby for Chris Hocker who often dragged his family to offbeat detours on family vacations. Hocker decided to start photographing and writing about these roadside attractions and in June 2014, launched Strange Carolinas with a story on Myrtle Beach's KISS Coffeehouse. In addition to chronicling over 400 attractions across the Carolinas, Strange Carolinas has also become an impressive music blog.

  1. The concessions at the NC Art Museum outdoor shows are terrible. Long long long lines.
    You can not bring in anything so if you are going to gouge concert goers for a bottle of water or a beer don’t make them wait in a line for 30 minutes during a two hour show.
