Does anyone want to do an autograph trade for a private address for Wilco? I'll explain!
I recently acquired a private address for the band Wilco. Just in case you aren't familiar with their music, here's a video:
I sent an LOR and a photo out about a week ago to this private address, thinking I'd probably get no response.
So guess what? Just the other day I got a phone call about the letter from a guy who works with the band, telling me that Jeff Tweedy (the lead singer/songwriter of Wilco) would sign the photo!
And here's the kicker: I didn't include my phone number with the letter. The guy looked up my return mailing address and found it online so that he could talk to me personally. How wild is that?

silverystars, that's awesome!
I don't collect autographs so I can't trade any, but I've been trying to get a contact address for Jeff - I wrote a very Wilco-like song and I will never use it so wanted to see if he wanted it for free, no strings attached. Is there any chance you'd consider sharing the address?
