Apparently Nels Cline's mommy didn't bring him to a pox party when he was a little tike.
From the band:
We're sorry to report that our good friend and Wilco guitarist extraordinaire Nels Cline has recently contracted a rather nasty case of the CHICKEN POX (not sure that should be in all caps... but judging from the gruesome details in email correspondence we've had with NC, we'll leave it so). He is slowly on the mend but is not quite there yet, necessitating postponement of the Duluth, Minnesota show scheduled for this Tuesday night. That date will be rescheduled for Tuesday, September 4 and all tickets for the original date will be honored. Refunds will also be available to those of you unable to attend the Sept. 4 show.
The show scheduled for this Wednesday in Winnipeg, Manitoba will either be postponed or canceled but will NOT take place as scheduled. Details on refunds coming shortly.
We apologize for the inconvenience... but we're really glad Nels seems to be over the hump and hope to see you out there soon.
Regretfully,
the Wilco HQ staff
