TheDeathSet in Baltimore (CRED)
Now that I finally got the Best Fwends post out there, it's finally time for the one about one of their friends - another Todd-P-Baltimore-Wham-City-Dan Deacon-Spank-Rock-Punk band that I've been getting pretty excited about lately - THE DEATH SET.
TheDeathSet @ Glasslands Gallery, Brooklyn, NY - May 25, 2007 (CRED)
This is also my chance to finally bring up the water balloon incident...
Last Friday was a show at Glasslands put on by Bikes In The Kitchen. It was a pretty great line-up, with Pterodactyl, Team Robespierre, Best Fwends, and theDeathset. The show was a sweaty good time (very sweaty, perspiration was condensing on the metal roof and occasionally dripping down on the crowd), until a random tragedy hit right at the start of Deathset's set. Some girls thought it would be funny to throw water balloons down on the crowd from the balcony. And it was funny. Until one of them, for whatever possible reason, decided to start throwing them past the band at the back of the stage where all of the amps/speakers/cables/sound equipment was.....[Suckapants on May 28, 2007]..........
....Meanwhile "Fuck you you fucking fuck" girl decides instead of simply giving me her details it would be a better idea to call the police after first trying to fight me all the time me thinking how ridiculous it actually is that my first fight will be with a girl. Luckily peoples pull her off. So in summary, this girl is not only an imbecile and an idiot, she is also a narc, causing the party to end. The police come and side with me after they hear the story and I tell them I don't want her to be arrested and they advise me to get an attorney which I don't have the first clue about and obviously being in a touring band can not afford. [TheDeathSet - June 4, 2007]The Death Set have a new (twelve song) EP out this week. It features remixes by Dan Deacon and Bonde Do Role. Tonight (June 22, 2007) and tomorrow they play shows in NYC followed by a whole bunch more shows all over the place. Tonight is going to be especially nuts because they're on a bill with Matt and Kim and Parts and Labor - Above the Auto Parts Store....

Britta Persson somewhere in 2005 (CRED)
It was back in November that I first fell in love with Swedish singer-songwriter Britta Persson. I emailed her shortly thereafter to see if she had any plans to play NYC. Then she recently asked for my help in making it happen while she's in town helping us celebrate our independence from Great Britain, and so....
Britta Persson takes NYC
July 3, 7pm @ Rockwood Music Hall
July 6, 11pm @ The Living Room (unofficial Fujiya & Miyagi Seaport afterparty)
Both shows are free, but please show your support while you're there by throwing some cash in the tip bucket. Videos below....

BEIRUT - new album & 2007 Tour Dates
Did anyone notice a member of Beirut playing a horn with The Citizens Band when they opened for the White Stripes at Irving the other night? I could be wrong.
Zach @ Primavera sound 2007, 9:00 am soundcheck (more about that)
Back in May it kind of leaked out that Grizzly Bear-fan Zach Condon and his band Beirut would be playing three NYC shows in September, but the tour dates I just received only list two September dates - so either plans changed, or they'll announce the third one after the first two sell out. All dates, and new album info, below....
As you somewhat already know...
The new record (yet to be titled) will be released on October 9th on Ba Da Bing!, and features a notable shift in sound from Gulag. With song titles like "Nantes" and "Cherbourg," the record is more a love letter to French culture. Featuring thirteen tracks in all, this new album continues on the trajectory that began with the Lon Gisland EP, where the entire eight-member band plays along on the recordings. Besides the eight-member orkestar and guests, Owen Pallett of Final Fantasy adds lush string arrangements to the songs, as well as guest vocals on a track entitled "Cliquot."Beirut - 2007 Tour DatesThe album was recorded in two separate sessions - at the A Hawk and a Hacksaw practice space, and at Arcade Fire's ornate studios outside of Montreal. To date, Gulag Orkestar has sold over 100,000 copies worldwide.
Beirut will be playing a limited number of North American shows this Fall in theatrical venues. Colleen, whose new album Les Ondes Silencieuse is out this month on The Leaf Label, will open.

They Shoot Horses Don't They Slim Moon
DOWNLOAD They Kill Horses Don't They - A Place Called LA (MP3)
DOWNLOAD: The Mary Timony Band - Sharpshooter (MP3)
Was it indie karma that got Kurt Cobain of Nirvana's friend, the rock star of indie-labels, Slim Moon killed like a horse about to become glue - shot down from his A&R position at Nonesuch last week by those sharp shooters at the Warner Music Group where he was working for less than a year after leaving Kill Rock Stars - the label he created - the label that houses bands like They Kill Horses Don't They and The Mary Timony Band - both who recently came out with new albums? Probably not, because Billboard is now reporting that Slim just moved over to Rykodisk, also owned by WMG.
Mary Timony just made a video for the song you can download above. You can stream They Shoot Horses Don't They's new album Pick Up Sticks. They're also playing Cake Shop and Silent Barn in August, and touring all over the place.....

Oxford Collapse, Cheeseburger & BEST FWENDS - the best free show today? (+ pics from SXSW) & TOUR DATES
Much like looking at the schedule of free stuff going on today for "Make Music New York", I totally procrastinated posting these pictures of Best Fwends playing my show at the Red Scoot Inn during SXSW (March 15, 2007)....
I can't say exactly why, but I loved them. They hit play on an iPod or something, and then jump around like maniacs singing to the songs they wrote. They look and act nuts, and they're really a lot of fun unless you don't think they're fun like my own best fwend who was standing next to me at the show and thought they were like Beavis & Butthead (in a bad way), and was pretty much embarrassed for herself to even be standing there in front of them at all. I wished they kept playing after they stopped.
VICE also had some not-nice stuff to say about them, but Gorilla Vs. Bear has been known to say nice things on their behalf.
So, maybe you'll love them, or maybe you'll hate them, but either way you can find out for free if you happen to be in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn today (June 21, 2007) when they play an incredible free show w/ the incredible Oxford Collapse (also BV show veterans), and Cheeseburger - who I'll even admit to liking sometimes.

DAN DEACON adds 2nd Brooklyn show + 2007 Tour Dates w/ GIRL TALK (webster hall)
DOWNLOAD: Dan Deacon - The Crystal Cat (MP3)
Further confirmation that Summer has started - the first free show at McCarren Pool in Williamsburg happens this Sunday (June 24) with Superchunk, Oakley Hall and +/-. Then just two weeks after that comes the one with The Octopus Project, Erase Errata, and Dan Deacon. That same night Dan is then playing a 2nd show in Brooklyn - @ Death By Audio - a venue located on 49 South 2nd - with OCDJ who is also DJing at McCarren Pool that day AND who is playing Citysol after Les Savy Fav.
Then Dan is coming back to NYC again in September - that time with Girl Talk, and that time at Webster Hall, and that time on a super-power-hip-tag-team tour, that, like Pitchfork said, is crazy-something like the pairing of Arcade Fire & LCD Soundsystem (except really Arcade Fire & LCD Soundsystem is kind of a little bit better because they don't just hit buttons and jump around - NOT THAT THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT - not to mention they'll be doing all that button pushing at Webster Hall - WHICH COULD BE OK - I mean both tours will be good in their own way I think...).

Weakerthans, Clutch, Lee Perry & Lucero playing boats
Back when the Rocks Off "School of Rock" festival in NJ was announced, I definitely wondered if, and hoped that, the Weakerthans would play their own NYC show as well. The Bad Brains are doing it - also for Rocks Off - on a boat (now sold out). Ends up - so are the Weakerthans, and it's this Friday June 22nd (NOT SOLD OUT).
Lee "Scratch" Perry (tix), Lucero (tix), Clutch (tix) RJD2 (tix), and many others are playing concert cruises too.

VOXTROT played Webster Hall, playing SIREN FESTIVAL
Last week we found out that Cursive, White Rabbits, and M.I.A. were added to the Village Voice Siren Festival (July 21) lineup that already included New York Dolls, We Are Scientists, Matt And Kim, The Black Lips, Dr. Dog, Lavender Diamond, The Detroit Cobras, Elvis Perkins, The Twilight Sad, and The Noisettes.
Today I can tell you that the final unannounced band is in fact: VOXTROT! Friday night I went to see them play (obviously) at their biggest headlining show to date here in NYC....
Voxtrot/Au Revior Simone dance party @ Webster Hall - June 15, 2007 (CRED)
Au Revior Simone opened, and, like the time they opened for Peter Bjorn and John at the same venue, came back to join the headliner on stage...twice - once to sing backup, and another for an all-out on-stage dance party. Unlike past Voxtrot shows (and I've seen a lot of them), this one was further enhanced by the presence of the Tosca String Quartet. Overall, great show - I missed Au Revoir Simone and Favourite Sons though.
More Voxtrot tour dates HERE.
