Concert update


Not going to Easy Star Allstars anymore in lieu of Slaughterama happening that weekend. Got my Dr. Dog tix for the 9:30 club ~ new album due on Apr 6.
This is a Monday show but unquestionably worth it! ~ White Rabbits & Here we Go Magic @ at the Jefferson Theater in C'ville
Also the new MGMT album is up on their own website for stream.

State of Late


Been listening to lots of artists who are performing in the area soon as well as people at bonnaroo I haven't heard of. I'm planning on volunteering there this year in return for a free tix. So far it's just me and travity ~ let me know if you want to come with us.

Some follow up albums coming out this spring. I heard some fantastic new tracks off the upcoming Dr. Dog album, "Shame, Shame". I'm thinking I need to get tix to their upcoming show at the 9:30 club before it sells out.
Some other new albums of my recent enjoyment:
Four Tet ~ There is Love in You
Magnetic Fields ~ Realism
The debut album of Two Door Cinema Tourist History. They're on the label Kitsuné Music, along with cut copy, crystal castles and hot chip. I could see this list generating some good bands.

Speaking of new finds, that's what pitchfork media does best. I'm also thinking of catching the first two days of their yearly festival in downtown Chicago ~ whata lineup for only $40 a day! Then sunday, catch the cubs for an afternoon game at wrigley field against the phillies. Whose trying to eat some chicago style pizza this summer?
