The news I was dreading finally broke today, and
The Mars Volta concert scheduled to be at the Tabernacle next week
got canceled because of the tornado damage. I guess I am going on another road trip. Also, Ticketmaster, thanks for not refunding our processing fees. As always, you suck.
The
Explosions In The Sky show at The Variety Playhouse on April 13th has Sold Out. If you did not heed
our warnings, you are still in luck. They have added another
EITS show that same day at 4:30pm at The Variety Playhouse.
Go here and buy tickets.
The free SoCo Music Experience thing
that took place in Centennial Place last year
is happening again on May 17th with
Queens Of the Stone Age,
Ghostland Observatory,
Supersuckers,
Bang Camaro, and
Ryan Shaw.
I have been trying to catch a
Liars show unsuccessfully for some time now, but I think I will finally get my chance as
they are opening for Radiohead at the Atlanta show. That show is gonna be sick.
Tomorrow night there are two stellar shows that Ohmpark will be splitting up to catch. First there's
Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks with
John Vanderslice opening at The Variety Playhouse. Then there 's new-hypes-on-the-block
The Dodos, fellow SXSW act
Silje Nes, and Atlanta badasses
The Liverhearts at Lenny's.
Thursday night my picks of the night are at Lenny's featuring
Battlecat, Thy Mighty Contract, Gold Painted Nails, Chopper, and
Lay Down Mains and at the Drunken Unicorn featuring
Ahleuchatistas, Sorry No Ferrari, and
13 Day Mission. Either one of those will be a winner.
Friday night I'm picking The Earl show with
Silent Kids,
Luigi (their last show for who knows how long), and
The Preakness as the place to be. Saturday at the Drunken Unicorn starting at 4pm is the WREK 91.1 FM 40th anniversary party featuring
all sorts of ATL bands.
