police sweater blood vow

Ever since I opted not to go to see the Shins last headlining gig here (about two years ago), because I was going to Sasquatch (and before that when I opted not to see Ted Leo at the Media Club), I've been kicking myself. Not because I really needed to break the bank to see the Shins that many times in one week, but because I failed to realize that The Fiery Furnaces were opening. Well, I can finally see them (and so can you) when Eleanor and Matthew play Richard's on June 12th. You Built to Spill fans out there have a dilemna now.

Low Budget is djing at the Kids (every saturday night at the Columbia) on May 6th. It's also the "unofficial Emily Carr grad afterparty."

The Secret Machines are at Richard's on May 9th. (thanks Shea)

Finally, the Joel Plaskett Emergency show, originally scheduled for Richard's on May 5th, has been combined with the Matt Mays show at the Commodore. They'll co-headline the ballroom.

now playing: Idlewild - Mistake Pageant

maybe we should break it
i've seen you with your hair down at least five times
if you got it, you gotta move it
in the walls
sweet troubled soul
i was good with names, i had a way with faces
sleeping with a gun under my pillow
bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
summer's gonna hurt you
a testament to youth in verse
