Music Update for that Ass
Upcoming Events that I would like to check out and you might want to check out as well:
*Only including non-soldout shows.
9:30 Club - The Dresden Dolls FRI. MAY. 20 $15.00 - You may know the Dresden Dolls from their song Coin Operated Boy. It's a husband wife trio -
9:30 Club - Rilo Kiley SAT. MAY. 28 $15.00 - This will be a great show. The band really rocks harder than most think and they can bring it back down when they need to.
9:30 Club - Spoon FRI. JUN. 3 $15.00 - If you don't know about Spoon then you really should.
9:30 Club - LCD Soundsystem & M.I.A. SUN. JUN. 12 $20.00 - This may be the hottest show of the summer.
9:30 Club - Ted Leo/Pharmacists THU. JUN. 23 $12.00 - I have yet to see THE LEO live in concert. But any man who is bald and where's sweat bands and plays that much kick ass music gets my ticket money. For those who don't own "Shake the Sheets" go and get it.
The Black Cat - PINBACK, AQUEDUCT, DUDLEY CORPORATION SUN MAY 22 $14 - I highly recommend Pinback if you are a Radiohead fan or a Deerhoof fan.
The Black Cat - THE RAVEONETTES, AUTOLUX, THE PEELS SAT MAY 28 $12 - People are saying the new album is hot. I haven't heard it. Their first album was great though. You can also see them the next night at the Ottobar.
The Electric Factory - Ryan Adams and The Cardinals FRI MAY 20 - Apparently they are saying this isn't sold out. If I had a partner I would go in a fucking heartbeat.
The Funk Box - Andrew Bird WED. MAY 25 - Andrew Bird is pretty good and it's rare that we get such a treat 3 blocks from my house. So I'll be there.
The Talking Head - Rogue Wave SUN June 19 - This is a pretty big show for the Talking Head - I would love to see this band play that venue.
Not much from the Ottobar - Sonar seems to be picking up with shows by The Futureheads, Built to Spill, and Disco Biscuits but I think the one show that I have seen that I would want to go to more than any other is the Ryan Adams show at the Meyerhoff - - - that's a good gig.
