Don’t take rides from strangers…unless it’s for Wilco

Need a ride to the Wilco show at McCarren Pool on August 13? Well, thanks to Jeff Tweedy and company, you now have options. The newly created “Passenger Side” program allows fans to go on to Wilco’s website to find or share rides to the band’s shows. According to their site, the message board was established to help with rising gas prices and temperatures, and, of course, to reduce everyone’s carbon footprint. It’s also a unique way to connect Wilco fans…that hopefully doesn’t end in any mishaps. Check out wilcoworld.net/roadcase/passengerside.php for more info if you’re looking for a ride.
