FRIDAY:
>>> There is weirdly not a hell of a lot going on tonight ‚Äî here come the angry emails from bands who think that their show proves otherwise ‚Äî but really, just go outside and breathe in that fine autumn air. It’s so clean it almost burns. We recommend: Bottle of Smoking Loon in Washington Square ’til your face turns hot, then to a friend’s home for casual album-side spins of Bringing It All Back Home, Tigermilk, More Songs About Buildings And Food and finally, The Best Of Colin Bluntstone.
>>> See below for James Sugg’s The Sea.
>>> Like the wind through the trees, there is always Hands & Knees. Free Sparks, PBR and Vitamin Water and vodka at The M Room. Mon dieu.
SATURDAY
>>> Sometimes we publicize an event so much that we don’t even need to remind you about it in Weekend Picks. You already know what it is! H NC CK STR T F IR is one of these events. But seriously: Come on up to NoLibs for our biggest block party ever. Weather forecast is bitchen, bands are great and people are selling cool stuff. Bring a friend! Make a new one!
>>> Clap Your Hands Say Yeah at the Troc is way sold out, but there is still last-minute talk of some kind of Philebrity afterparty in the Balcony. Dryw and Mickey, if you are reading this, please call the office so we can figure out if we’ll be spinning “Itchy Soulbangers” or “Lipstick Shoegaze.”
>>> Not to be denied: Massive Attack’s first Philly show in forever, at the Tower Theater. Also, Philebrity Player alumn Regina Spektor at the Electric Factory.
>>> Big Rich Medina at Mojito, yo!
>>> Also also: My man Adam Arcuragi at the Johnny Brenda’s.
SUNDAY:
>>> Fresh off this, erm, skin-tillating LNP shoot, the one, the only Oxy Cottontail and posse at The Walnut Room.
>>> Attention Nerd Squad: Elf Power at the Khyber. That’s it, baby, just pretend it’s 1996 all over me. Je t’aime, je t’aime.
