Today is slow at work, so as I updated my show calendar, I noticed a pretty big (for me anyway) conflict: on February 12, the Club is hosting Liars & No Age, while the RNR Hotel has Gibby Haynes playing Butthole Surfer songs with little kids.
Normally, the Gibby show would trump all; I'd put the Surfers in my top 10 bands list, and I haven't seen them in years. I figure that the show would be a greatest hits-like show, which definitely psyches me up. Still, I could see this being a bit novelty and not really living up to my expectations.
On the other hand, I haven't seen Liars in a while, and though I've seen them a ton in the past, I'd be pretty pumped to hear the new album live. And the No Age album is one of my favorites from this past year, and I have yet to see them live.
What do you think? I'm leaving my decision open to your input, since I'm a little stuck. Any conceiveable way of catching both?
