first time i saw her, i wanted more than just to hold her
The folks over at Sealed With A Kiss are doing their best to ensure that my bank account slowly dwindles into oblivion in the next couple of months. They just announced a quartet of shows that, in all likelihood, you do not want to miss.
Art Brut makes its Vancouver debut, playing an early show at Richard's on March 24th (read: you can probably make it to this and Belle and Sebastian - and you might as well try, since the New Pornos aren't opening in Vancouver).
Isobel Campbell won't be gracing the Commodore stage with her presence that night, but the estranged former B$Ser rolls into town for a solo (and also early) show at Richard's on March 10th. Anybody checked out the leak of her new one with Mark Lanegan? Give me the lowdown.
Controller.Controller return to Vancouver for an(other) early show at Richard's. They play March 3rd, and this time don't conflict with Deerhoof and Okkervil River.
And, last but not least, a month after the release of their cleverly titled, Axis of Evol, Pink Mountaintops play Richard's. Check them out on April 5th.
In non SWAK related events, Leeroy Stagger plays my favourite place to go whilst skipping class, UBC's Gallery Lounge (main floor of the Student Union Building) on January 18th. Thanks to Shea, who booked the show, for the headsup.
Oh... and for the benefit of our underage, and fake-id-less friends out there, any all ages show will now be marked as so in the sidebar.
now playing: Idlewild - Everyone Says That You're So Fragile
