Red Mosquito

Also, officially going to Riotfest Chicago (Replacements and Pixies) now, and just bought tickets to see Sigur Ros in Birmingham in October. Super-excited about both of those.

I thought the Pixies broke up?

"The Pixies." Deal isn't with them anymore.

Saw They Might Be Giants last night in Prospect Park. Great show. Tons of fun. They played every song from the new album that I really wanted to hear live.

And the opening band was this trio called Moon Hooch. They were fantastic. Just two horn players and a drummer. But they put on a hell of a show.

They're starting a worldwide tour next month. Doing a few US shows then over to Europe. They have yet to announce the leg after that.

I ended up going to see Danzig last night because my cousin's friend cancelled at the last minute. It was the most hilarious thing I have ever seen.

im going to see Maceo Parker in two weeks.

in the next month or two: deerhunter, bill callahan, jonathan richman, destroyer

Yesterday for free:
Titus Andronicus
The Dodos
The Thermals

It was a good show.

Sounds great. I love The Thermals.

Does Titus Andronicus put on a good show? I like them, but somehow they don't strike me as a band that would be particularly good live.

They're INCREDIBLE. Even better live than in the studio. Their sound has changed a bit since the lineup change as there's no more violin or keyboards but man, they really put on a hell of a show.

just got to see marnie stern shred all night and also talk about her vagina

I am thinking of ending my endless quest for Brooklyn I tickets and instead spending my money on seeing the Black Crowes at Terminal 5 the next week.

if i can get some rest beforehand (which seems unlikely), i'll be seeing kim gordon tonight
