Before I mention this week’s line-up, I would just like to let everyone know that the Cornelius and Deerhoof show at the Fillmore on Tuesday is cancelled due to…erm….Swine Flu. But no matter, there’s plenty going on this week to keep you occupied.
Tonight we’ve got avant-garde freaks Sleepytime Gorilla Museum at the Great American Music Hall and The Dead (yes, THAT Dead) play the Shoreline Amphitheatre. Monday, Scottish indie pop group The Vaselines hit up Bimbo’s 365 and instru-metal band North plays The Full House in Oakland. Tuesday features noise-pop acts Ponytail and Cryptacize at the Bottom of the Hill and the always amazing Cloud Cult play The Independent. Wednesday has blues-rocker Michelle Malone’s CD Release party at the Café du Nord. Thursday, we have doom metal giants Opeth and Enslaved at the The Regency Center Ballroom and Janeane Garofalo at Cobb’s Comedy Club. Friday we have Loney, Dear at the Bottom of the Hill, The Avett Brothers and Magnolia Electric Co. play both Friday and Saturday at the Fillmore. On Saturday M. Ward does the Fox Theatre in Oakland, Margot & the Nuclear So and So’s perform at the The Great American Music Hall, and I’ll be folking it up with Sean Hayes and The Botticellis at The Independent.
See you out there!
