This Week's Touring News

Who: VHS or Beta + Tigercity
When: April 8th
Where: Highline Ballroom
More Dates
Listen: VHS or Beta - "Burn It All Down"
Tigercity - "Are You Sensation"
Thoughts: Chances are this ticket is going to be a little more expensive then it's worth for the sole reason of being at Highline. These are two solid enough bands though and are definitely worth checking out.

Who: Elf Power
When: April 7th + April 8th
Where: Mercury Lounge + Union Hall
More Dates
Listen: Elf Power - "Spiral Stairs"
Thoughts: Rocking band getting coverage by all the big blogs, meaning these shows will sell out fairly early. Jump on the tickets now!!!

Who: Mudhoney
When: June 7th
Where: Highline Ballroom
More Dates
Listen: Mudhoney - "Hate the Police"
Thoughts: Does the legendary Mudhoney have anything left in the tank? Probably. Is it worth seeing them? Yeah I'd think so.

Who: Duran Duran
When: May 30th + May 31st
Where: Central Park Summerstage
More Dates
Listen: Duran Duran - "Hungry Like the Wolf"
Thoughts: Following in the footsteps of The Police, Duran Duran decides to cash in on whatever is left of their popularity. I think these tickets are like $75 which means I will not be in attendance.

Who: Rilo Kiley
When: June 2nd
Where: Terminal 5
More Dates
Listen: Rilo Kiley - "Close Call"
Thoughts: Eh.

Who: The Weakerthans
When: April 11th
Where: Music Hall of Williamsburg
More Dates
Listen: The Weakerthans - "Sun in an Empty Room"
Thoughts: I've never seen The Weakerthans but I'd love to!!!
