Heyyyyyyyy.

Thursday - November 3rd, 2016 A.D.

A good night!

Beach House plays Kings Theatre. Good luck getting tickets!

That wasn't meant to be sarcastic! I honestly hope you're able to get into this show that's gonna be impossible to get into at this point! I just want u to be happy!

Greg Barris hosts his comedy night at Baby's All Right w/ a bunch of funny peeps (including Dave Hill who shreds the sickest riffs of any comic in the world, basically). But guess who's the special musical guest? I'll just tell you! It's Lauren Mayberry from CHVRCHES!

Make 'em gold, Ponyboy.

Sorority Noise + Jank + Ratboys play Shea Stadium. Goddamn. I like all three of those bands! (read this, this, and this).

Since this show is sold-out (and rightfully so) and I would like to go I'm happy to report that YES I WILL take your extra free ticket and be your +1! It's no problem! My pleasure! Happy to!




Other notable Thursday shows = Girlpool at Silent Barn + Girls Against Boys at Saint Vitus + Patton Oswalt at Beacon Theatre

There's a bunch of good comedy tonight (see: NY Comedy Festival).

Hannibal Burress.Mike Birbiglia...Fred Armisen...The Lucas Brothers….Marc Maron...all sorts of good shit!

Foals play United Palace Theatre and I can almost smell the noodles from here.

Such a ____ band!

Gates play The Studio at Webster Hall. Have you listened to their new album yet? If not, you really should. I kind of insist upon it, actually. It's real good!

Muscular Emo Foreva.

Saturday - November 5th, 2016 A.D.

Screaming Females play Villain (moved from Market Hotel). Very Fun Fact: the first show we ever listed on the blob for these super good NJ punks was at Trash Bar in February of 2006 A.D. Time, you be so crazy sometimes!


Crying (who just opened for Joyce Manor and The Hotelier) play Shea Stadium. Is this band any good? Yes. This band is any good. And then some. And how!


Dilly Dally opens for Grouplove at Hammerstein Ballroom. Why do these Toronto rockers rule so much? I don't know! Don't question it! Just let yourself be ruled be a good band every now and then! It's fun!


Other notable Saturday shows = Jenny Slate (Big Terrific) at BRIC House + The Juan Maclean (DJ) at C'mon Everybody

Jens Lekman plays his first NYC show in four years tonight at Music Hall of Williamsburg. Very sold out. But I can sing "Black Cab" for you outside the venue while you try to get in, if you want. I have a lovely singing voice.

AJJ play Warsaw (w/ Diners & Chris Farren). YKWTD.


Damien Jurado plays Bowery Ballroom. Here's my favorite song of his probably. It's a little old though. Hope that's OK!

Other notable Sunday shows = Elvis Costello at Beacon Theater
