Sunday

Sorry Fleet Foxes are hotstuff and so their show at the Entry is sold out. Demand appears greater than supply on craigslist. THEMES played with them (and Blitzen Trapper, good show) last spring and that show wasn't so packed. I was drunk (surprise!) and didn't pay any attention at all to Fleet Foxes. Apparently that was a mistake because evidently they are very good. I kept goosing Jacy and Kelsey was all "don't goose Jacy he likes this band and he's gonna get mad."

So maybe I like goosing boys. Don't hold it against me. It's funny.



Chiang Banger Block Party @ Lake & Girard 2-10, free, with Polara, Solid Gold, Ouija Radio, The Mood Swings, Shortcuts, Fuck Knights, Frontier, Caroline Smith, Bitch City, Grey Skies, and emceed by comedian Chris Maddock.
