shit, the reason i didn't even think of going was because last i checked it was moved to the mainstage.
are people expecting both sonic old's sets to be the same for each night with different encores, or perhaps a spice up of what they normally do when posed with the prospect of having to entertain two nights in a row?
The setlists have looked like most if not all of the new album in its entirety with 5-6 older songs sprinkled throughout the set/encore(s). I'm guessing the old songs will change but that's about it.
i'm curious to see the "scene" of the michael jackson tribute thing in l.a. tomorrow.  i like how they are telling people not to come if you don't have tickets.  yeah . . . that always works.  and kudos to  ebay/craigslist for removing all the scalpers trying to capitalize.  now if they would do that for every other concert, we be getting somewhere.
I'm going to the Wilco show.
add
Imperial China - Fort Reno
Handsome Furs possibly Friday and Dan Deacon Ensemble on Sunday (Whartscape)…anyone else going?

Handsome Furs Ottobar Sat maybe.  They have a contest on the ottobar website where they are giving away a free ticket.  I signed up and won.  My friend signed up and won.  I think anyone that signs up wins.
Knitting Factory in NYC with something like 15 noise/drone acts.
I'm hoping they do a noisy freakout set like the Markers of old given the vibe of the night.
