just a heads up - the first opener, Bowerbirds, is well worth getting there early for.

hey BV,
heads up that the last link mp3 you've got for Ladybug Transistor is actually called "Three Days from Now", from the "Can't Wait Another Day" LP.

just saw The Rosebuds in NC last Sat night ...they put on a hell of a show ! ...very high energy & they transform the more new wavey/disco elements of their new record into big powerful rock songs..good stuff..

It's San with an N not Sam. There's also talk of a record release party on June 11 with Pipas and Alasdair of the Clientele in Brooklyn somewhere....
