Date 11/20/09
Location Waterloo/St. David’s Church
Doors 5pm/6pm
Tickets Free/$20 from Frontgate

Yes yes technically Daniel Johnston lives in Austin, but we wanted to tell you about multiple shows in one post.  The first is your usualy Waterloo in-store starting at 5pm with free keg beer of course.  The second is a more intimate show at St. David’s Episcopal Church(map) with doors opening at 6pm.  Both should be a great opportunity to see a local legend in conert.

Date 11/19/09
Location Mohawk
Doors 8pm
Tickets $10 from Frontgate

Front runners of the dance movement Friendly Fires are playing at Mohawk on Thursday night.  The show also includes buzz band The XX and Holly Miranda so the lineup is sick.  This also gives me an excuse to put up this XX song called “” which will probably be in my year end top songs list.

Location Emos
Doors 8pm
Tickets $18 from Ticketweb

The time for us to re-live the days of high school and college with a show by The Get Up Kids has finally come at Emo’s on Wednesday.  Openers are also pretty solid and provided by Mansions and Kevin Devine.  If you can somehow sneak between indoor and outdoor stages, Champaign, IL band Headlights are playing on the indoor stage.  We’ve always been fans of those guys so try your best to go ninja style and head inside after GUK finish their set.  Tickets for the indoor show are $10.  Also, here’s that new song GUK played on Daytrotter a while back.

Tickets $16 from Ticketweb

Yes yes I know this is officially listed as a Say Anything show, but didn’t the Emo movement die in like ’02?  Thats out of the way, so let me put it out there that I like Eisley.  Yeah I like ’em.  I’m sure some of you music snob types will throw hate my way for that one, but just look at those faces!  How could you not love those ladies?  So if you dig the Eisley, head to Emo’s on Tuesday night for a set by the Tyler, TX (holla!) group.  Miniature Tigers and Moneen also being on the bill should prove to make the show your best option for Tuesday night.  Just leave before that headlining band…
