This Week in Great Music: 4/19 – 4/25

Sarah — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 15:51:57 +0000

So my last week was a little bit absurdly busy, to the point where I just couldn’t make it to a show I’d planned to go to on Sunday, and just slept instead. I felt bad about it, because I’ve been looking forward to having a chance to see Eliza Gilkyson for a long time, but I figured that falling asleep mid-show (or, more likely, falling asleep on the Brown line and not actually even making it to the Old Town School) would be more rude than just not using the ticket.

But it looks like I’ve got a chance to make up for that, as Eliza is playing at the Hideout tonight along with Robbie Fulks for his Monday night residency. So looks like I’ll (finally!) be heading out to the Hideout for a show! (It’s only taken four years of living here for me to make it out there…) I’ll also be checking out the Antlers at Lincoln Hall on Thursday, and Gogol Bordello at the Congress on Friday. I’m actually going to that one more to see Devotchka than anything else, but oh well. It will be an adventure.
