Sorry folks but it’s an epically slow week for shows in the Bay this time around. But I’ll see what I can give you…
Tonight is Wavves, Ganglians and Best Coast play the Rickshaw Stop and John Legend and India.Arie perform at Berkeley’s Greek Theatre.
Monday, Philly based pop act Cold Cave and Veil Veil Vanish hit up The Knockout.
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs and YACHT pull a double nighter at Oakland’s Fox Theater. I don’t know if it’s sold out or not but I think night two still has some tickets available.
Wednesday night is a hard night for fans of lo-fi garage rock; Vivian Girls and The Beets crash the Rickshaw Stop and Cass McCombs, Girls and The Papercuts hit up The Great American Music Hall. Flip a coin.
Thursday finds LA’s HEALTH with San Fran’s Mi Ami and Denver’s Pictureplane at Bottom of the Hill, the Maxïmo Park show at The Grand Ballroom at the Regency Center is canceled, Raconteur Brendan Benson does The Great American Music Hall, and Vivian Girls perform at San Fran’s Amoeba Records at 6pm.
Friday we have Irish punkers Flogging Molly at the Fox Theater, Metallica comes to Marin Veterans’ Memorial Auditorium At Marin Center in San Rafael, Oakland’s The Lovemakers do The Independent, and Japanther and Ninjasonik rock out at El Rincon.
Saturday, The Killers and New York Dolls perform at the Shoreline Amphitheatre and one hit wonder (I’ll Kill Her) Soko plays The Independent.
See you out there!
