A Baltimore Based Indie Music Blog
Ahh…the holidays…time to take a break from shows and just chill for a bit…but wait…not just yet. Why? Well the answer is at Sonar tonight where Spank Rock, Plastic Little, Ninjasonik, Po Po, XXXchange, Devlin & Darko, Dirtyfinger, DJ Hoff, Cullen Stalin, Hip Hop Dan, Cerebral Ballzy and more will be tearing it up tonight. Now that’s an early Christmas present.

Unfortunately for Baltimore tonight the Yeasayer/Chairlift show at he G Spot has been cancelled, but luckily there’s also a fine show at the Wind Up Space with The Squaaks, Snowmen, and Labianca. In DC CSS play the 9:30 Club while Ryan Adams and Oasis play the Patriot Center. Finally if you’re in the mood for solid hip hop then head on down to Johnny Brenda’s in Philly to see Reef The Lost Cauze, Dice Raw, and Prowler.

Tonight in Baltimore is Feet night at the Baltimore Round Robin at Sonar featuring the infamous Dan Deacon with The Death Set, Video Hippos, Blood Baby, Nuclear Power Pants, Double Dagger, DJ Dog Dick, Future Islands, Lizz King, Smart Growth, Height, and Adventure. If you aren’t hip to that scene perhaps the Ottobar in Baltimore has the answer with Lake Trout’s Live CD Release show. There will also be performances by Jason Dove/Vacation Face and We Read Minds. Down in DC the Red and the Black has a great one with E. Joseph and Flo Anito. Finally up in Philly there are three sparkling shows that deserve some attention. The first is the Wu-Tang Clan at the Trocadero. Don’t think I need to expand on that one. The second is the ever hyped CSS at the Fillmore at the TLA with Pink Skull and Hey Willpower. Third and finally don’t miss Baltimore’s Oranges Band at Johnny Brenda’s with Blood Feathers, and the Homophones.

So school is back in session. Are you learning anything yet? That’s what I thought. Here’s an idea. Why don’t you all tell me something. An interesting fact, a random news clip, or flat out opinion today. Today will be the Friday (I’m A Remix) knowledge free for all day. Did you know that Moscow is the world’s most expensive city now?

Have you ever been so busy that one moment it’s Sunday and you’re drinking a sip of coffee in the morning, then the next moment it’s 4:30 on Friday and your work week is almost over? That’s how this week has been for me. I can recall momentary blurs of life on each day, but the rest is a haze. I’m in a good mood, though, so something must be going right. How are you dealing with the hazy days?
