I really enjoyed seeing Dungen last week. They finally lived up to their records and honestly sounded about ten times better than the last couple of times I saw them.
If you wanna follow the hyped bands, you've got some good options this week. Love Is All / Vivian Girls on Tuesday, El Guincho on Thursday, Of Montreal / HEALTH on Saturday and Yeasayer on Sunday. I would prefer the alternative of Everest / Henry Clay People on Tuesday, Rodriguez or Lucinda Williams on Friday and O'Death / Le Switch on Saturday. As always, the important thing is to just get out and support somebody.....
