Show Of The Week
I saw Carly Rae Jepsen last year while I was in Chicago for Lollapalooza, and now this year I’m going to miss her because I’ll be in Chicago for Lollapalooza. Weird. And sad. In any case, you have to see her at ACL Live this Saturday. Her last few releases, Emotion, Emotion: Side B and 2019’s Dedicated are all genuinely great, so you can expect a full set of pop gems. Also, she’s just really fun to watch perform. Go in my place, friends, and dance your heart out for me.
Tickets are $39. Phoebe Ryan will open.
