BECK @ THE KNITTING FACTORY, NYC | OCT 26, 2006
Beck also played the mtvU awards, Angel Orensanz, Jersey City, & MSG's Theater while he was here.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs also played Bowery Ballroom earlier this year.
I'm not sure The Fiery Furnaces ever played The Annex before, but I did see them at Bowery Ballroom in 2004, and I'll be at the Annex on Saturday November 4th with special guest host Sara Shaefer who also performed with the Walkmen at the above mentioned AOL party at Canal Room.

thanks for the great roundup! especially useful, since i didn't think the music industry could become any more self-important than it already is.

yes, because hosting a party for your employees, friends, and advertisers makes you SO self-important. get over YOUR self "ciacci".

one more for the list...Under The Influence of Giants played a People Magazine party last Tuesday at Nikki Midtown, as part of their People Music Lounge series. Later that night, UTIOG played a private show at the Mercury Lounge...http://rotationroom.blogspot.com/2006/10/under-influence-of-giants-people-music_26.html

Empolyees, friends, and advertisers can all still be very self-important people, my friend.
