An Evening with Pink Martini is more interesting than most of the Wolftrap shows you listed…and Elvis Costello doing bluegrass…

indeed, but i didn't think anyone here likes the pink martinis.  and i meant to put elvis on there, totally my bad:

Elvis Costello and the Sugarcanes
Featuring: Jerry Douglas, Jim Lauderdale, Stuart Duncan, Mike Compton, Dennis Crouch, and Jeff Taylor
"This sensational rocker with a knack for sharp lyrics and eclectic melodies is back with a twist on traditional bluegrass?featuring an exciting new album by Grammy Award-winning producer T-Bone Burnett."
Thursday, June 11 at 8 pm at the Filene Center
Ticket Price: $45 in-house, $25 lawn

YES!  They sound awesome in a club setting.  First time seeing them was at the Norva.

I've seen them once in a club setting and wasn't terribly impressed. But really, who wants to support a girlfriend-beater anyway?

More evidence to my claim that Baltimore gets all the good shows, and DC gets the crap.

Yes, negotiating Barcelona with a two year old in tow is going to be crazy.

Don't worry.  You'll have almost the entire summer to recover.  There's usually a really bad, boring lull when all the festivals suck up all the talent worldwide…
