You can read more about why I'm doing listings here. Long story short: This curated and decidedly non-comprehensive list contains nothin' but shows that I am going to/would go to if I had more time.
Gig of the week:
Teenanger [EP LP Record Release show] (Crosss / The Beverleys) / The Garrison 2014-09-12 (Friday) [FB event]
Accuse 'em of "maturity" if you must, but a continually-widening sonic palette looks damn good on these veteran garage-punks. And live, they'll never be less than ferocious, so it's well worth coming out to celebrate their new record — stellar supporting cast as well.
