West Coast Love

I just noticed that MUSE has scheduled some tourdates for the west coast in a couple weeks...They are playing some fantastic and amazingly cheap festivals:

FM 94.9 - Miller Lite Independence Jam! (San Diego)
with Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Franz Ferdinand, Muse, Death Cab For Cutie and The Secret Machines
Sunday, September 19th at 6:00pm
Tickets are $24.00*

KNDD Endfest
White River Amphitheatre, Auburn, WA
Sat, Sep 25, 2004 03:00 PM
Echo & the Bunnymen, Franz Ferdinand, MUSE, The Psychedelic Furs, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Violent Femmes, X Band.
GENERAL ADMISSION ON THE LAWN - $10.77

You can get a roundtrip ticket and hotel for under $300...(prolly cheaper if you poke around the internet a bit)...I kinda wanna goto San Diego...Being that I'm the only person in the city who was around all last week...Maybe I'll take a trip to the sunny SD and kick back for a weekend...

Gothamist Arts pointed out the opening of the Interpol-Inspired Video Installations Exhibit at a gallery in Soho. Tomorrow night from 7-10 will be the kickoff, and it looks to be a good time. I hope to go check it out before heading over to Rothko to see The Futureheads and hear Franz Ferdinand's DJ set...

Tonight's the Wrens/Nada Surf at Mercury Lounge for some quiet and intimate acoustic sets. It you're in a more upbeat mood (dance that rain away?), go see Radio 4 at Bowery Instead. Either way, you can't miss. Good night for music.

There will be a presale for Morrissey at Radio City at 12:00 noon today...I think. Interpol presale will be Friday through K-Rock...When they send me the password, I'll put it up.
UPDATE:Morrissey Presale is sold out...blogger was broken all day, so I guess this notice wasn't much help...sorry.
