Ashes Of American Flags follows Wilco from Tulsa, OK to Washington, D.C during its 2008 U.S tour of ballrooms, clubs and concert halls, capturing the six-piece band, and three-man horn section at such hallowed venues as Tipitina's in New Orleans and the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. This feature-length DVD is a concert film of extraordinary intimacy, with HD cameras primarily on the stage and often inches away from singer-songwriter Jeff Tweedy's microphone or drummer Glenn Kotche's cymbals. The DVD also functions as an evocative travelogue, a document of the band's physical and emotional journey. Co-directors Brendan Canty and Christoph Green track Wilco's tour bus across the country, taking in both the wide-angle beauty and William Eggleston-like desolation of the highways and cities they pass through.
