Prince Paul with Cool Calm Pete, Harlem Shakes, Head Set & Alec Ounsworth @ Pianos TONIGHT. Prince Paul of De La Soul, Gravediggaz & Handsome Boy Modeling School headlining, Alec Ounsworth of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah opening, and what appears to be a solid lineup in between. (not properly highlighted in my Gothamist post this week)
Shout Out Louds & The Redwalls @ Mercury Lounge on August 7th: I never got past my first few listens of the Shout Out Louds CD, but I know a lot of people are excited for this show that was added after the August 8th one sold out.
Weird War & Good Morning @ Mercury Lounge on August 5th: I lost all interest in Weird War after seeing them play the Drag City Christmas Party at Bowery Ballroom in December 2004.
Smog and Feathers @ Bowery Ballroom on August 8th. I like his music, and I've especially been digging the new album, but after also seeing Smog at the Drag City Christmas Party, I'm not very motivated to spend $15 on his own headlining show.
Wilderness @ Mercury Lounge on August 26th: I want to go to this show. I don't have a solid opinion on this band yet, but have listnened to the album a few times since Pitchfork added them to their 'Best New Music.'
Hot Snakes @ Bowery Ballroom on August 9th. Their last NYC show ever.
Q and Not U @ Knitting Factory on Sept 20th early & Sept 20th late. Their last NYC shows ever.
"After a six-year hiatus, the Olivia Tremor Control reformed to play at the Vincent Gallo-curated All Tomorrow's Parties in England this past April; now, they've announced select tour dates in the U.S." [Pitchfork] @ Bowery Ballroom August 2nd & 3rd.
Xiu Xiu & Frog Eyes & Yellow Swans @ Bowery Ballroom September 2nd. I'm a fan of both Xiu Xiu and Frog Eyes. Their live shows are great, so there's a good chance I'll be at this show.
Benevento Russo Duo plus Drums & Tuba @ Bowery Ballroom on September 8th. My jam band lovin' friend insists I not miss this.
Seu Jorge @ Bowery Ballroom on September 11th & 12th. See previous post.

Wilderness are a must. Even if you're leaning to "not sold" on the album, the stage show will do some things for you. I can't believe how much sound comes out of them.

I'm also intrigued by that Wilderness show and am considering getting tix. I think their cd is quite good and deserved a decent pitchfork review.
Another Merc show that I think is worth checking out is The Most Serene Republic - Wed 8/24. I can't get enough of Underwater Cinematographer and any BSS/Stars/Arts & Crafts fan should give them a listen.

hot snakes... can't wait... they put on what's probably my favorite show of 2004 at bowery last fall. oh, they were awesome. glad i got my tickets for this one early.

it's not fair to judge smog on that christmas party show. that rotating lineup sucked, there was no way to maintain the mood. and mood is half the battle at a smog show. so much better when he gets to play his own full set.
