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.
Gigs of the week:
Music By Harry and Furlong Season 2 Spectacular! (feat. Andrew Furlong/Kayla Milmine/Kurt Newman / Harry Vetro's Search For Eternal Happiness Pt.7 [Harrison Argatoff/Patrick Smith/Mike DeiCont/Caleb Klager/Harry Bartlett/Patrick O'Reilly/Meghan Noelle Gilhespy/Madeleine Ertel/Nick Donovan) / The Tranzac (Southern Cross Lounge) 2019-09-25 (Wednesday) [FB event]
Andrew Furlong/Karen Ng/Daniel Pencer/Mark Zurawinski) / The Tranzac (Southern Cross Lounge) 2019-09-26 (Thursday) [FB event]
A busy week as always — you shouldn't miss out on the "special" events, like the Music Gallery's first show of the season on Friday night. But at the same time, don't skip past those "regular ol' gigs", like a pretty sweet run of shows in the Tranzac's late slot this week. I highlighted these two, but could as easily have mentioned The Archives of Eternity gig on Tuesday or The Ryan Driver Sextet on Friday. (Friday has a special album-release celebration from Aurochs in the early slot too!) Long story short: stay up late, go to the Tranzac.
(Actually you should get out early and go to the Tranzac as well, there's a great one-two punch on Sunday afternoon with Marker Starling playing a special bring-the-family noontime set. followed by the spacey drift-drones of Cosmic Homeostasis.)
