The day after all the inauguration hoopla, it’s pretty calm around town, but there is one show in Baltimore you should not forget about. The Talking Head has The Honey Brothers and Jason Dove/Vacation Face – don’t miss it. If you’re up north in Philly there is plenty to do tonight. The World Cafe Live has the WXPN Musicians On Call Benefit with Rachael Yamagata, Andrew Lipke, and Matt Duke. Johnny Brenda’s has The Virgins (who are pretty darn good live) and Lissy Trullie. Finally over at Kungfu Knecktie Pissed Jeans and Fucked Up will tear it up.

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.
