Did anyone actually find the grackle on the artist's page for the April 13th clue? The clue was: The driving force behind this act began his career in a band that shared half of its name with the birthplace of a famous fried-peanut-butter-sandwich-eater. If anyone actually did find the bird please let me know. I thought it was Wilco or Son Volt too but I didn't find the grackle on either of their sites.

Anonymous -- That clue was about Jay Farrar and his reunited Son Volt, not Wilco.

they've also confirmed Wilco. The hint was something like: The lead singer got his start in a band who shares half of its name with the birthplace of this famous fried-peanut-butter-and-jelly-sandwich eater Elvis, Tupelo, Uncle Tupelo, Tweedy...
