12-18 the Hong Kong @ Mercury Lounge

This was the second time I’ve caught the Hong Kong and both sets have been excellent. They look and sound like a mashup of some of my favorite bands (the Velvet underground, Blondie, Stereolab). They kinda shoegaze compared to some other bands I've seen recently but the music makes up for it. The UK’s gonna love ‘em - definitely a group to keep an eye on.

12-13 Little Killers @ Southpaw

I love chicks with picks & sticks so its no surprise I think the LKs & the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are the best rock n' roll trios in the city right now and I try to catch 'em whenever I can. Both are dynamic, sexy, & intense but in unique ways. The LKs have more of a rockabilly swagger and Andy fucking shreds on guitar. One song they do called "butterfingers" is just crazy. They keep is short but sweet.

I was also diggin Southpaw, the new live club in my neighborhood. Great sound & sight lines, cool crowd, & cheap booze. My girl puked on the floor and the manager didn't even get pissed off. So far so good - props.
