Weekend Picks

Christina Courtin plays Bowery Ballroom tonight.

Yo yo my fine feathered friends! Can you believe it's ze weekend already? This week flew right by me...and I'm kinda wishing I was Jewish so I could get in on that Rosh Hashanah action.

Anyways, here are my weekend picks:

Friday
One Step Beyond (King Britt, Bonde do Role, Plastic Little) - Museum of Natural History
Michael Gira, Marissa Nadler, Castanets - Highline Ballroom
The Walkmen, The Subjects - Music Hall of Williamsburg
Do Make Say Think - Society for Ethical Culture

Teddy Thompson, Christina Courtin - Bowery Ballroom. If you like Ryan Adams, you'll love Teddy Thompson and if you like Regina Spektor, you'll love Christina Courtin.
Interpol, Cat Power, Dirty Delta Blues - Madison Square Garden
Pablo Sanchez (DJ set) - Monkeytown


Saturday
