No Age and High Places Tonight

If you haven’t seen these locals yet, head to the Bowery Ballroom tonight to see No Age, fresh off the release of the excellent Nouns, who are playing with the also excellent High Places. I don’t think anyone could have a bad time there. Tickets are still available here.

RJD2 at Bowery

I once saw RJD2 DJ on a boat. It was awesome. While Bowery Ballroom is not quite as cool as a boat, it  will probably still be fun. Check it out this Friday night, May 2. Tickets here.
