Akron/Family and William Parker's Southern Satellites close the 15th Annual Vision Fest with a special collaborative show tonight at LPR. Akron recently put up some new demos on their Bandcamp page.

The Unthanks are an English folk group who happen to be signed to Rough Trade and are playing Joe's Pub tonight.

Passion Pit announced last night, in Prospect Park, that they were playing their biggest (headlining?) show to date (they've played festivals). They can say the same thing tonight because Colonel's Row on Governors Island holds even more people than Celebrate Brooklyn (not counting those who sit outside the fence).

We Were Promised Jetpacks headlined MHOW last night. They go on 2nd tonight at Governors Island (Suckers first, TPC third).

Delta Spirit play their first of two sold out shows in NYC tonight. Their new video for "Bushwick Blues" is re-posted below..

The trailer for RZA's kung-fu flick Wu-Tang Vs The Golden Phoenix is also posted below.

What else?

Anyone know what time Passion Pit goes on tonight?

6pm show starts' pretty frickin early considering we have to take a ferry there.

I remember the shit show it was to catch the ferry for Yahsayer. I hope it runs more smoothly. Especially since I have to get my tix from will call.

Yea. Anybody know when passion pit goes on? How come they start these shows so early? A show should start at 8:00 (which really means 9:00) and go til at least midnight.
How come NYC the city that doesn't sleep is starting to take naps?

"How come they start these shows so early?"

@1:49 - Because the ferry operators don't want to drive your drunk hipster asses back to mainland at 1 a.m.
