Paul Westerberg Private Show

From the newsletter of Man Without Ties, a Paul Westerberg fan site:

Paul will be playing a private show at First Avenue in Minneapolis on Sunday, September 23. Yes, less than a month away!

The show is part of "The Craft" concert series, co-sponsored by Miller and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It will be hosted by Warren Zanes (of The Del Fuegos and now working with the HOF) and the concept has been described as "a mash-up of an unplugged performance and an Inside the Actors Studio discussion".

So that's the amazing news, now here's the only catch: This is a private show and you can only win tickets, you can't buy them. Cities 97, a Mpls radio station, is doing the ticket giveaways and you visit the link below to enter online:

Also, for those of us who aren't lucky enough to go to the show, a small consolation: it will be filmed and available online at a later date. You can check the News page and the Message Board for more info on the show as it becomes available.

To get psyched for this show, take a look at Paul's fantastic performance of "It's A Wonderful Lie" on Jools Holland show in 1999. Hooray for YouTube:

The winners of those tickets will indeed be fortunate. Thanks to Kathy for keeping the fans informed.
