John Vanderslice Plays Largo Tonight

Tonight's Pick:

John Vanderslice / St. Vincent @ Largo – This should be a great show at a great venue. For Largo shows, you generally need to make a dinner reservation to get in. Tonight the dinner reservations are booked up, but you can go down and stand in line and hope to get a seat (or stand) at the bar. It’s worth a shot tonight. Download JV’s “Exodus Damage” and “Trance Manual” St. Vincent is Annie Clark who was a member of Polyphonic Spree. Gorilla vs. Bear is a huge fan. Check out the LAist’s interviews with Vanderslice and Annie Clark. Email interviews aren’t that easy to make interesting, but Tony did a good job with them.

Also Appearing:

Peachfuzz / The Rolling Blackouts / Thee Makeout Party @ the Echo ($8 / $5 with flyer) – It’s a Jim Freek / Teenacide extravaganza with the record release party for Peachfuzz.
The Shys / The Prix @ the Roxy (Free)
The Starlight Desperation @ Spaceland
