This is all about Taylor Swift and two nights at Metlife, the eagerly anticipated 1989 reaches ground zero (nearly, oddly enough no nyc gig though I did catch a preview of this show at Jingle Ball last December). I have tickets for both nights, pretty good seats as well, and I have sky high hopes that this will be her best show ever. Still, perhaps it is time she began including more of her old catalog? We will see this Friday and Saturday.
Monday – David Bronson – Joe’s Pub – Promoting his excellent current album Questions, this is a big gig for the best singer songwriter you don’t know (yet)
Monday – Corey Taylor – Irving Plaza – Slipknot’s singer and Stone Sour innovator (he is performing double duties here), has gone solo for the night.
Monday – Girlpool – MHOW – The Shags meet the Y Pants duo with hot new album.
Tuesday, Wednesday – Kevin Hart – Madison Square Garden – The funny man stand up
Thursday – Mike G (Of Odd Future), Left Brain (Of Odd Future), Speak, Pyramid Vri – The Marlin Room Of Webster – Now this is the true Junior Varsity of Odd Future.
Thursday – Stiff Little Fingers – Irving Plaza – They’ve got a sus sus sus suspect device
Saturday – Vans Warped Tour – Jones Beach – Handguns, Kosha Dillz, Neck Deep, Palisades, Blessthefall, Hundredth, Lee Corey Oswald, Trophy Eyes, As It Is, Beautiful Bodies, Crossfaith…
Saturday 4 Knots – Pier 84 in Hudson River Park – Nice line up, Stephen Malkmus and Super Furry Animals on top, and a full day of great bands. I am seriously thinking of blowing off the second night of Tay to catch SFA.
