Upcoming Shows
How about a brief break from all the sxsw pics? There are some kickass shows around town over the next week or so that I’m really excited about.
Friday, aka tomorrow, aka 3/26: White Denim @ Antones – If you live in Austin, you’ve likely already seen White Denim. And you know they’re worth seeing again. (ask me about the time I caught them 7 times in 5 days at southby a few years back) Also, if you’re in the first 200 to rsvp on Do512, you get in for only $5.
Monday 3/29: Daniel Francis Doyle and YellowFever @ Red 7 – Again, locals, but DFD’s crazy one-man-band intensity and YF’s minimalist pop are always fun.
Wednesday 3/31: Ted Leo & the Pharmacists @ the Parish
Thursday 4/1: Harlem @ Mohawk – It’s their album release shindig, and even though it doesn’t officially drop until the week after, you can get your greedy hands on it then because they love you. They have a habit of putting at least one song on each album that makes it into my top 10 of the year, and this one is no exception.
Friday 4/2: Red Sparrowes @ Red 7 – You saw them at Fun Fun Fun, right?
Elvis vs Dikes of Holland @ Beerland – This should be awesome. I don’t know why DoH aren’t much bigger, because they throw down some awesome tracks. Combine them with the onstage crazy of that Elvis frontman, and it is a no-lose situation.
