Band of Barcelona

Dear all - I am in Barcelona, SPAIN, and stumbling upon a small and tender vinyl shop, I came across Los Mismos. I'll write more when I return in 3 days. Enjoy their music, though.

Premature Summer Plans

Free Summer Concert Season is back...and I'm excited. Here are my recommends as of now (everything is subject to change.)

South Street Seaport (River to River):

7/4: Sonic Youth does the 4th of July

7/11: No Age promotes their new album, Nouns. (also: Telepathe, Abe Vigoda)

7/25: Atlas Sound, El Guincho - I don't know much about El Guincho, but Atlas Sound, made up of Deerhunter frontman Bradford Cox, has the potential to relax you to the ages by the seaport's convenient sunset affected located.

8/15: Dirty Projectors - I like them.

Celebrate Brooklyn (Park Slope yeah!):

7/11: Brazilian Girls

7/18: Deerhoof

Central Park SummerStage:

8/16: Battles

Siren Music Festival: 7/19

Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks and Broken Social Scene headline.

Also good to see (perhaps) are Beach House and Film School - more TBA

Also some fun - movies at McCarren Park Pool: (no more pool parties...)

7/8: Rushmore

7/22: Wet Hot American Summer

8/12: 28 Days Later

8/17: Velvet Goldmine

8/26: Blue Velvet

And I kind of want to start writing more now that I'll have time...summer is when I write.
