NEW YORK (Rolling Stone/Wilco Fans Website) - Yet another celebrity has fallen under the spell of prescription painkillers - this time it's Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy. According to Rollingstone.com, Tweedy checked himself into a Chicago area rehabilitation center last week seeking help for an addiction to the pills that were prescribed to the singer for his chronic migraines. While plans for a spring tour, which visits Flagstaff on April 28 and Tucson on April 29, have not been scratched as of yet, the release date of the band's upcoming album, 'A Ghost Is Born,' has been pushed back to June 22. "Nonesuch (Records) moved the record back two weeks to accommodate treatment and recovery," says Wilco publicist Deb Bernadini.
