A communique from the Wilco compound today stated that Jeff Tweedy has entered rehab. Upon seeing the headline, I immediately conjured up visions of a seedy hotel room full of parameds inserting tubes into a bloated and unconcious Tweedy amidst the shrieks of a scared prostitute insisting that she "didn't do it." Then I remembered that I shouldn't confuse Wilco with Motley Crue. As it turns out, his Tweediness is having some trouble with painkiller addiction, as a result of his unrelenting migraines.

Need more Wilco news? You got it:

Unlike starving waifs Britney and Lars Ulrich, Wilco have decided not to sue fans who downloaded a copy of their new album, which won't be released until June 22. Instead, they've set up a website where the downloaders can donate money to Doctors Without Borders. Apparently they've already raised about $1,500 - how cool is that?

Speaking of music piracy, today's New York Times has a nice piece o' logic that claims that file sharing may not be all that detrimental to record industry profit margins.
