Show Of The Week

Speedy Ortiz, The Good Life, Tancred.  I love all three of those bands, so I’m pretty jazzed that they’re together on one bill this Friday at Barracuda.  You’d be wise to not miss such a rad trifecta of indie rock, otherwise you may find yourself feeling hollow and dead inside.  OK, so the fallout from not attending probably won’t be quite that bad, but the show is going to be great, and you should try to be there.

By the way, if you’re thinking to yourself that three bands just isn’t enough for you this Friday, then I advise that you head to Beau’s Backyard at the Oasis.  I booked a show for 93.7 KLBJ that features The Ghost Wolves, Major Grizz and The Wild Now.  FREE!  Show will start promptly at 6:30pm, which is early enough for you to still be able to hit up Barracuda afterwards!  Come hang.
