This week rollcall

Yeah, Windhand are great :)  Seeing them next week in Baltimore.

Thing is, I also would love to see Polyphonic Spree tomorrow night. I saw them at the club like 10 years ago and it was so joyful and awesome. Can't do both though. WHICH ONE?

Perfect Pussy, Joanna Gruesome, Potty Mouth, Love of Everything at Rock and Roll Hotel on Saturday

Potty Mouth pizza brunch at WMUC on Sunday

I think it's too bad that they get the tag of being a novelty or a gimmick because last night's show was great, just a cacophony of sound. Violins, trumpets, trombones, harps, piano, guitars, four stunningly gorgeous back-up singers, it was amazing how good it all sounded. I can see where the "UP WITH PEOPLE" vibe can grate after awhile, but I've always been impressed by how much they're an actual band with good songs.

haha yeah, a friend is raving about last night's show this morning.

I still think seeing them once or twice is enough.

Next 12 days
The Spoon Tuesday
The Hold Steady Thursday
The Bob Mould or Wilco/Tom Petty Saturday
The Ryan Adams Monday
The Gaslight Anthem Wednesday

I was also struck by how good-looking that band is. Other than the 'Steely Dan session guitarist" guy, that entire band is just gorgeous. I couldn't get over how smokin the back-up singers were and then realized the two guys playing the horny horns were very handsome and the violin guy looked like the Capt America guy and the harp player was a damn angel and even the Mascis-y guitar player looked like a cutesy Jimmy Page. That touring caravan must be one huge good-looking fuckfest.

Oh and the music was good too.
