Busy-ish week last week: Glass Candy, Dan Deacon, Vivian Girls... this week, we'll see Thao Nguyen on Thursday and Van the Man on Saturday (by the way, we wonder who is shelling out three hundred and fifty bones for pit seats to this gig in the midst of the Greatest Depression of All Time. One pit seat = 70 dinners at Popeye's).
And if you're also going to Thao and want to chill with some people, check out this meet-up group.
Don your SARS mask, go see some music and good luck warding off swine flu!
