one more hour
Nicolai Dunger is at the Media Club on July 22nd.
Immaculate Machine also plays the Media Club. They hit town on July 29th.
The Stones Throw Records 10th Anniversary Tour rolls through Vancouver on October 21st. Madlib, Peanut Butter Wolf, and J-Rocc are all set to rock the mic at Richard's.
Subtle is at the Plaza on September 17th.
That Lions on the Street show on July 15th is now at the Red Room. Bend Sinister is on the bill now too (and headlining?).
If you're in need of a tour van, The Paper Cranes are selling theirs.
Thanks to Jackie for reminding me of the Fatlip/Cadence Weapon show. Last week the site template sorta blew up, so I had to redo some of the show listings. If you noticed anything else that was up before and isn't now, please let me know.
Here are some fun things to do with the early part of your Friday night...
The Grates are playing with Hot Loins at Limerick. The festivities get started at the very un-rock 'n roll hour of 7:30pm and should end by 10pm. And, it's only a mere $12. I also give you my personal guarantee that, if you have aren't a complete kill joy, you'll leave this show smiling. Last time I was at Limerick someone spilled a beer on me, but if that happens tomorrow, I'll still be smiling (it actually wasn't that big a deal the last time either).

If you need more convincing, check out this writeup of their recent Montreal show (complete with video, and picture of Patience and John Patterson trying la poutine).
As most of you probably already know, the last Friday of every month is Critical Mass. Honestly, due to my suburban locale, I'm not a huge fan (loading your bike onto the B-Line just to ride around downtown, isn't that fun). But, no matter where you're from, you should note that June is bike month, so tomorrow's ride will be massive.

one more hour
Thankfully, Sleater-Kinney won't be ending their 11 years with a mid-afternoon set at Lollapalooza. They play what is sure to be a fitting farewell show in their hometown of Portland on August 11th. Portland's only about the same distance as the Gorge... so, I'll see you at the Crystal Ballroom!... assuming I can get tickets.

not to be a jerk, but based on that lineup, it looks like pb wold, madlib (!) and j-rocc would be rocking the ones and twos instead of the mic.
