A Baltimore Based Indie Music Blog
While I thought the Arcade Fire weren’t up to much besides squabbling with Wayne from the Flaming Lips, I did run across a nice remix from Jeremy Gara on I Guess I’m Floating. Gara, while a grand part of Arcade Fire, does a stand up job of restructuring The Acorn’s “Crooked Legs”. The original is gentle and tender (like much of the Acorn’s folk style), but Gara builds a world around it full of life and energy. Enough talk…here it is:

Tonight in Baltimore, Metro Gallery has another fine free show with Dancer vs. Politician while the mazing Diplo comes to Charm City to Sonar with No Age, Abe Vigoda, Boy 8 Bit, and Telepathe. Down in DC, don’t miss School Of Seven Bells and M83 at the Black Cat or Calexico and The Acorn at the 9:30 Club. Up in Philly, Hot Guts, Royal Bangs, and Fun Dogs tear down the Khyber while Colour Revolt, Restorations, Padre Pio, and Castle Worries play the M Room. Also in Philly the First Unitarian Church has a dazzler with Crystal Castles.

Edit: The Velocipede Bike Project show just got a lot cooler. Abby Mott and Baby Teeth are now on the bill, after the unfortunate Talking Head cancellation. Woo.
This is a super packed day for events. Here in Baltimore be sure to check out a great art opening down at Velocipede Bike Project that features the work of Alyssa Dennis, Charlotte Benedetto, David Cunningham, Kathy Fahey, Laurent Hrybyk, and Orlando Johnson. There will also be a performance by Yeveto. After that you can head right next store to Metro Gallery and catch the one and only Protomen or across from that you can swing by the Charles for the Maryland Film Festival.
Maybe you might want to travel a bit more downtown to the Talking Head for Abby Mott and Baby Teeth EDIT: (The Talking Head has had to cancel this show)…. or trek over to Charm City Art Space for Caleb Stine, Among Wolves, Beans, Lost Thoughts, and Heavy Hangs The Head. In DC the Black Cat has The Kills and Telepathe while the Velvet Lounge has Hammer No More The Fingers, New Rock Church Of Fire, Caverns, and Black and White Jacksons.
