Date	Friday, November 22nd
Location	Red 7
Doors	9:00 PM
Tickets	$14 from Transmission

You’ll find a ton of shows in town on Friday, including the hipster-approved Miley Cyrus, I mean CHVRCHES, but here’s a show for those who are looking for something a little far left of the dial. Canada’s Besnard Lakes are the headliners on the night, offering up their blend of indie meets psych meets folk meets jam. Then you’ll have the band that I think cold steal the show, Elephant Stone. They’re another Canadian act that have been on my list of reliable group’s for some time now; you should check out their most recent self-titled album. And, as an added bonus, you get local opener, The Boxing Lesson. So, if you’re not going to Cass McCombs, and you don’t like Miley Cyrus, then this is definitely going to be a good place to find yourself Friday night.

The following are current pop artists that shouldn’t be on the airwaves, which includes every track they’ve ever created.
