For a lot of people, the timing on this one is not so great… but for people who are staying in town over the holidays, it's not bad.

The Brazilian Girls did a show at the 9:30 Club on Thanksgiving night three years ago (I was the opening act), and turnout was pretty decent.  I think a lot of people are anxious to escape from their families after a whole day of Together Time, and for those of us staying in town who don't have family in the area, it's nice to have something else to do.

Aaaargh… I guess that probably means no 9:30 Club show for them this time around, right?

I really enjoyed their show in fall 2007.

Looks like Rodrigo y Gabriela are now doing two dates at the 9:30 Club: Mon. 10/26 and Tues. 10/27.

Or basically, b/c you don't have to work the next day.

As someone who does not celebrate Thanksgiving and likes Zero 7, this is a really cool thing for me to do that day. Was at said Brazilian Girls show.
