The September 24th “Wordless” Beirut show is right around the corner (not really wordless – just the name of the series), and word has just come in that – around a few more corners after that – Beirut‘s good friends Grizzly Bear will also be playing one of these Wordless shindigs…

Grizzly Bear + special guests and classical performers TBA

6:30 PM doors / 7:30 PM show
Tickets on sale Monday 9/17/07 via www.wordlessmusic.org

Yes, Grizzly Bear have a lot of friends, so why not include some of them in their next album, and why not call that album “Friend”? And why not put a big picture of them all on the inside of the CD? In fact, why not put this picture? (click it for a much larger view):
