The Run Down - Sunday February 24, 2008

There are a great plethora of shows tonight. Usually this never happens on a Sunday, but this is a crazy world we live in, isn't it? Here in Baltimore there is a magnificent line up at the Ottobar with Daniel Johnston, Jason Dove and The Magic Whip, and Lizz King. In DC you don't want to miss Bowerbirds at the Black Cat playing with Deleted Scenes and Kitty Hawk. Also in DC The City Veins, Lights Resolve, Shanghai Thrills, and Fall Back Plan all play the Red and The Black. Go ahead and savor this last day of the weekend.

A Remix & The Run Down - Saturday February 9, 2008

Finally it has happened. When I first popped in MGMT's super great fantastic album Oracular Spectacular, I had two thoughts. The first was, "Dang this is the bee's knees!" The second was, "There's gonna be some killer remixes of this." Sadly I waited and waited, checked the hype machine, checked my email, checked my mailbox, but nothing....until last night. I received an email last night containing the first remix of MGMT's Kids blended with DFA 1979. It's great. Check it.

As far as shows are concerned, there's many great ones tonight. At Johnny Brenda's in Philly, White Williams smokes out another venue with Ecstatic Sunshine and Rings. In Baltimore you have the choice of going to the Lo-Fi to check out The City Veins and Lights Resolve or heading down to the Metro Gallery for The Squaaks, Baby Aspirin, and Goldbug. Enjoy.
