The Run Down - Friday April 4, 2008

Holy crap there's a multitude of events set to happen tonight! In Baltimore you should definitely swing on down to the Talking Head to check out some local favorites, Jason Dove, Caleb Stine, Finn Riggins, and Infinite Honey. If you're in DC you have a tough choice. You can go to the Black Cat to see Les Savy Fav, The Dodos, and The Big Sleep, or the Rock and Roll Hotel for Beach House and Papercuts, or the Velvet Lounge to see HEALTH, The Apes, and Womanhood. You could also head a bit further south to see Enon and The Epochs at IOTA in Virginia. If you're Pennsylvania bound the Millcreek Tavern has a sweet show with The Bee Team, Drink Up Buttercup, The Lisps, and An American Chinese. The Reading Terminal Market has Diplo, The North Star has the Handsome Furs and Violens, and Johnny Brenda's has Aloha, Anthallo, and Ape School. Buuuuuusy night!

The Run Down - Thursday, November 15, 2007

If you want to see one of the best...ever, then trot yourself down to DAR Constitution Hall tonight and witness the legend that is Neil Young. Sometimes I forget how good he really is, so I throw on my beaten up copy of Harvest and listen in awe. If you're not into the whole classic rock seen, that's okay too. You might enjoy seeing Enon play their crazy diversified indie experimental rock at the R&R Hotel in DC along with Love of Diagrams and Sleeping People.

Enon and on and on

There are days when you listen to music. Then there are days you listen to Enon. Enon is a band with members hailing from New York and Philly, but that has no impact onto what they are. They are a band that is unafraid of sound. They rock...they groove...they drive rubber cars...they're just good. They're number one on my list of bands for the sake of having a list of bands. And low and behold they have a new album entitled "Grass Geysers...Carbon Clouds" coming out October 9th on Touch and Go Records. TandG have a song to listen to on their site...but I also have it here!
