Wish I could go, but $25 is kinda steep...and they don't even play most of the music...

[Tom Servo]

I'm in for the Brazilian Girls thursday and the Sounds on saturday.  Unless I change my mind and go see the Hold Steady.

This has been the topic of the week in the office...Ducks vs. Beavers. I kept my mouth shut...didn't want to piss off the wrong person by saying something about their team.

i'd love to see the new york dolls but i just realized including them, there's 5 bands on that bill and the dolls probably won't go until after midnight.  late sunday night shows suck.

PEACHES! PEACHES! PEACHES! CAN'T WAIT!!!!

[kmb187]

I'll be at Peaches on Sunday. Hopefully it will be even better than the last!
 
 I'd like to see The Sounds, but the other day the ticket site said there were no more tickets available. Now it works fine. No clue.

[Vas Deferens]

I'd rather listen to my Blondie records than endure the Sounds...but that's just me.

based on my experience at the second little steven underground show they run a very efficient schedule...  the opening bands get very short sets, all the equipment is setup before hand with shared amps and drums, so the change over is quick. i'm pretty sure the final act was on by 11:30pm that night.  still can make for a late night...

Wedding tonight, Hold Steady tomorrow and the Nutcracker Sunday at the Kennedy Center.  I got got culture, man.

A fun New York band with a Midwest sound, November 24, 2006
 Reviewer: MANUEL J HERNANDEZ "http://askmanny.com" (Orlando, FL) - See all my reviews
         
 Hailed as a great live act, The Hold Steady returned in 2006 with their third album in the same number of years. Listening to them, lots of references came to mind: Bruce Hornsby, Toad The Wet Sprocket, Crash Test Dummies and more. The one running thread through all of the music they bring to mind is great production values to deliver a definitely Midwest sound, in spite of being based out of New York.
 
 The album is made up of a bunch of solid tracks that are captured on record impeccably. With no particular favorite songs within the album, I'd say confidently it's one of the year's most fun releases (along with the new 2006 Arab Straps album), and a band to continue to keep an eye on.
