Art Brut at Bowery Ballroom - NYC
Rock minimalism that would do Hemingway proud. You know, if he liked rock music. And was alive. And could get a ticket, since this show is sold out.
The Dirty Dozens Brass Band at the Canal Room
These guys are a New Orleans mainstay. They play at Le Bon Temps Roule to a packed house nearly every week. Where bands like Morning 40 Federation have developed their own sound to compliment the city, The Dirty Dozens have honed to perfection the music that has empitomized NOLA for ages. I recommend them emphatically.
David Gilmour at Radio City Music Hall
He’s a legend trying to cut it in modern music. I kind of prefer he would have just stayed retired, but here he is. Long live Pink Floyd!
The Stills at Mercury Lounge
yawn.
