Thurston

The Thurston Moore Band — aka Thurston, his former Sonic Youth bandmate Steve Shelley on drums, My Bloody Valentine’s Deb Googe on bass, and guitarist James Sedwards — put out their SY-esque The Best Day earlier this year and recently toured it, hitting NYC twice. They have more dates coming up, including a return to NYC on December 11 at the Marlin Room at Webster Hall. That’s a free show presented by Norton Antivirus and Pandora, but you have to RSVP to get in. All Thurston dates are listed below.

Speaking of Pandora shows, the previously discussed Pandora-presented Hold Steady show at Long Island’s Space at Westbury happens this Wednesday (11/19). That’s also free with RSVP.

The Hold Steady have also expanded their New Year’s Eve celebration. The NYE show at MHOW sold out long ago, but they’ve now added a second show happening the night before (12/30) at the same venue. Both are with The So So Glos. Tickets for the 12/30 show go on sale at noon on Friday (11/21) with AmEx and artist presales starting at noon on Wednesday (11/19).

Updated Hold Steady dates are listed, with those Thurston Moore dates, below…
