Showtime

At least from a music standpoint, this month has started in a great way. Starting last Tuesday, I went to three shows in three nights--Yelawolf and Wiz Khalifa at a sold out Middle East, A Sunny Day in Glasgow at Great Scott, and finishing off in a strong way with Vampire Weekend at The Orpheum. A two day lay-over was followed by Serena Maneesh on Sunday (thanks again to Kevin for the tix).

But it won't stop there. My calendar is quickly becoming dominated by upcoming concerts...this is what's on itinerary right now:

Thursday- Cymbals Eat Guitars @ Middle East

Saturday- Ted Leo and the Pharmacists @ Paradise

April 18th- The Thermals @ Middle East

April 22-25th- Weekend road trip to Greensborough, North Carolina to see G-Side (if you're into rap and don't know about this group, download this mix-tape now)

May 3rd- Yeasayer @ Paradise (I will get tickets to this show)

May 11th OR 12th- Dr. Dog @ Paradise (sponsored by WERS)

May 15th- Jay Electronica @ Paradise (check out this song "Exhibit C"...one of the best hip hop tracks of '09)

May 21st- Devon the Dude @ Paradise


Annnd that's just April and May. There's a good chance I won't end up going to all of these shows, but I'm going to damn well try. I don't know if it's the warm weather or just an influx of great shows into Boston over the next few months, but it looks like a whole fucking lot of my nights this Spring are going to be spent destroying my eardrums and dancing and sweating my ass off amongst numerous hipsters, stoners, and black X's.

So psyched.
