Weekend roll call

I'd go see Laura Veirs at Iota tonight but just returning to town & traffic sucks.
Joseph Arthur on Monday or Griffin House at JJ.
secret machines - saturday night

and then lots and lots of sleep. been out every night this week and am about to pass out at 7:20. pretty sad, but since i was out till 3:30 last night, i guess i should sleep at some point.
currently trying to enlist the lady to join me for a day of sportin' n' drinkin' - FA Cup in the morning (manU vs. chelsea), hockey in the afternoon (sens vs. sabres), trying to find my way home in the evening (me vs. the world).

If I'm not at work until 10pm, I will definitely be at this show.
How was the Andrew Bird/Joan and Policewoman show?

Slaid Cleaves at Iota was pleasant. Cool to see small children at a show, though most appeared rather disinterested.

How was this? Their last 9:30 show was great. I disliked 10 Silver Drops at first, but it's really grown on me.

Ouch…Bags, are they really going on at midnight? I want to see that show, but that's just way too late for a school night. Why do their shows start so late?
Well, I'm not sure, and I don't know how to find out. The Long Winters weeknight show started that late, but I've heard some others who were at shows with the headliner starting 10:30 or 11:00. Can you call over to find out? Anyone know??

The website says doors at 8/show at 9. 3 bands. I would hope for 9:00/10:00/11:00. A midnight start time would really piss me off.

I'm definitely going though.
Well, if the show starts at 9:00, we should be in good shape for no later than 11:00. I'll likely be there…

i know this is way late, but just as an fyi it was part of the highline festival (the one bowie curated) and was at highline ballroom.

long story relaxer - but i ended up leaving early. was doing a 6 mile walk (AIDSwalk) on sunday morning nice and early. i left about half way into the set i guess. i remembered liking them a lot more the first time i had seen them (opening for interpol), and i might have just been really tired, but really didnt care for them. the drummer revealed what looked like a brand new drumset. it sounded really great. each song was running the gamut of nearly 10 mins and i normally dig that stuff, but wasnt working for me. they did sound really good tho.

highline ballroom is a pretty great place. i like it even more since its nearly on 10th Ave (which i live on) and so its easy to get to :) and i believe its all ages, because i didnt see them checking ID at the door. So I guess thats good for all the younger folk of NYC who cant get into a lot of shows.
