they should really get them to open for Jawbreaker at the anthem :)

also Lockjaw should be added to this imaginary bill
Lockjaw is bringing the Hell Rock revolution into the minds of the masses. Melting faces, destroying places

Bryan Ferry
8/13
The Anthem
Intrigued. Anyone seen him live? How was it?

The Lincoln Theater show was one of the greatest ensembles of musicians put together that I’ve ever seen. Whoever the musical director was, they did a top notch job. That show was his best, and I saw the Roxy Music reunion and other solo performances. Ferry is a must-see. A true treasure.

Thanks for the feedback. I trust your taste so that glowing of recommendation will prompt me to buy tickets, even though Avalon isn't my favorite Roxy LP.

I think you'd be happy, but to be honest, the extended version of "Tara" was pretty freakin' unreal and a total highlight for me. But the entire performance was sublime. Incredible sound too.

What's funny is I suggested this to someone over the weekend but with GlassJaw as the opener. Either way, a Jawbox reunion is exciting. Lots of good shows getting announced today!

The older I get the more I listen to Roxy/Ferry.

Me, too.  Doesn't really fit in with the rest of the things I like but I have listened to Roxy - Avalon, in particular - a lot lately.

I think I may have to see this.

How are these two bands actually different bands? I know nothing about them....I had always assumed there was just one Jaw* band.

Jawbox is a Dischord band from DC. Jawbreaker was a highly influential second wave emo band. They did mostly overlap timewise and neither has played shows in a while (Jawbreaker did Riot Fest like 2 years ago).

One is a power trio from Oakland, CA that started as more traditional punk and grew into terrific songwriters that injected emo while slowing the tempos down (with magnificent results, I love their last 2 LPs) before emo was...well, icky. The other is a 4-piece post-punk (and more traditional indie) band from DC (yay) who wrote some really, really well-crafted and beautiful songs ("Savory", "Iodine", "Reel") but still had the volume to make the music even more visceral. Both bands are actually very intelligent, underrated, and worthy of learning more about because of their depth and ability to convey feelings. I find the "Dear You" LP by Jawbreaker to be a cult classic that never really was appreciated and understood. It really spoke to me when it was released and I was disappointed that it didn't do better. Both bands got lost in the post-Nirvana 1990's shuffle of angry and posery post-grunge schlock, and I'm happy that I'll get to see both again this year.
