The Run Down - Sunday January 27, 2008

Though I may be pretty tired, you may not be. So for you there are a couple good concerts tonight. At the 9:30 club, Super Furry Animals, Holy Fuck, and Fiery Furnaces take the stage and do what they will with it. Here in Baltimore, Sonar plays host to one of my faves, Lupe Fiasco. That's one that shouldn't be missed (though I am missing it...again...tired...and...it's sold out).
