Nicolai Dunger at the Mercury Lounge
Dunger was a Swedish national soccer player before he turned to a career in music. Kind of like what Jack Johnson did, except Dunger is Scandinavian and not as lame. Dunger is hit or miss for me, he plays a sort of bluesy indie pop. He’s toured and performed with […]

Depeche Mode are currently in the middle of an extensive Eurotour that began last year. And in January they were confirmed as the headliner for day one of Coachella. Today they added a bunch of North American dates to their already crowded schedule.

Since NYC has stuff to do so often, I’m going to start doing this pretty much daily. With that said, I’m sorry this entry is so late, but I promise to get future ones done by the early afternoon. At any rate, this is what’s happening in NYC:
