>>> File under “They’re ENORMO-Huge In Australia”: Knives, cans of beer and… You Am I (pictured). And while you could make the case for one rockist crime after another in their now decade-plus catalog, we’ve always had a soft spot for these guys. Since ever, they’ve been fighting the sweaty Big Star/pre-Strokes fight. Plus, it’s always great to see a band that usually plays arenas in their home country kick out the jams in a comparitively micro-space such as Johnny Brenda’s. With Beretta 76 and Smoking Popes. UPDATE: You Am I postponed due to illness.
>>> Over at Silk City, The Asteroid #4 head up “The Perfect Prescription” which in this case most likely means Category A classic Psychedelphia jams, way too much beer and free tambourines for errrrybuddy. Enjoy.
>>> Also give it up for Fior Fiero, the Philly-by-way-of-San-Fran that used to be Philebrifaves Dark Side Of The Cop. Tonight they break the champagne over their new EP, Satellite, and fans of low-key electronic pop should take notice. Dig:

They’re at the North Star with The Red Romance.
