Real Estate on a boat in November (more by Marielle Sloan)

Real Estate seem like they've graduated up to levels of popularity that would allow them to headline larger venues like Bowery Ballroom, so though their next NYC show which is also their only show left in 2010 is free, it still might be a treat to catch them in the basement of the intimate Union Hall in Park Slope on January 29th with a member of the Smiths DJing. Tickets are on sale. No other Real Estate tour dates at the moment.

Yesterday I updated the Sly & The Family Stone post. In case you missed it, they're playing NYC on December 7th (not November 7th as I was originally told). Also, Mercury Lounge pulled "Andy Rourke" off the November 16th listing. They say he isn't coming anymore. That post is now updated too.
