Rockers call for carpooling to concerts - The Boston Globe

Another weird but hopeful sign that our society is finally getting the message about energy conservation

Rock bands love to wax about sustaining the environment. But Wilco, which played at Tanglewood last week, has been working on a novel, more concrete solution to the climate crisis: getting fans into carpools.

A few weeks ago, the band launched a special tab on its website that lets fans register as drivers or passengers. A feature then connects would-be carpoolers to each other based on where they live and which show they are attending.
