The weird thing is (well, not "THE" weird thing...), they use the same Germanic font Mader's uses and everything.

I know—I love it. It's very clever how the "W" in "Wilco" mirrors the barely showing tip of the "M" in "Mader's."

Absolutely bizzare, but you've got to love it. I think that every single reasonable album cover idea has been taken. So, if your relegated to the absurd from the start, you can't do better than a camel in front of a German restaurant in Milwaukee!!

Now everyone will want to come to Milwaukee, and not to get their photo taken with the Fonz!
