FRIDAY:
>>> In a world that was more honest with itself, the U.S. and Britain would say, “Hey, you know what? We’re gonna take a couple of years off from making pop music. The Scandanavians have it covered just fine. Maybe we’ll read a couple of books or something, have an early night.” Teitur, the pride of the Faroe Islands, holds it down at Johnny Brenda’s tonight. Don’t know dude? He’s on your mixtape with Jens Lekman and the rest of the gang.
>>> The Black Lily Film & Music Festival is already underway, you know. Dogear Saturday for Bahamadia and J-Davey at World Cafe Live, but def. peruse the rest of the schedule.
>>> We love Jay Simplefly, really we do, but this 4AM party he does once a month at the Barbary is going back to the 2003 electrosmash well ONE! MORE! TIME! Witness: LA Riots. Aw dude. C’mon.
>>> Bryan Adams is playing the TLA. No lie.
SATURDAY:
>>> Weather permitting, wing on over to the big flea market at Eastern State Penitentiary in Fairmount, OR the Flavors of the Avenue 2008 Spring Street Festival on E. Passyunk between McKean and Dickinson. Don’t rain don’t rain don’t rain.
>>> As noted yesterday, The Sorted! 10th Anniversary Party! At the Barbary.
>>> The Kills: Overhyped flava or the only thing rockists have left to live for? You decide. At Johnny Brenda’s.
>>> Augusten Burroughs at the Free Library: Oh shut up, we all know you read this guy.
SUNDAY:
