Thanks for the warning about the Pavement reunion. Hope I won't be in town that day.

Ellis Marsalis, but not that exciting

Bang on a Can was aws, btw. Made it through eight of the twelve hours. Probably would have kept going if it weren't for Marnie Stern's sheer awfulness.

if someone succeed in making a reservation to the free pool parties at mccarren , i'll appriciate if he shares his wisdom.

So who's the "legend" performing in Brooklyn on 7/21? 'Retha is in A.C. 7/25. Sly doesn't seem to be touring.

the only opera singer that counts is rené pape, bitchez

Anyone going to the non-free Devo?

I think you're reading 'legend' a lot more narrowly than they are

mookie i dare you to watch natalie dessay perform live and then make that statement.

this concert was kind of awesome and sooooo many people. it was really great to see that many people out for opera stuff! i have decided i don't really like angela gheorgiu.
