Tour updates

Hello -

apparently all solid bands are coming to New York the 10 days out of the year that I won't be here. And, on a scale of bitter to frantic, I'm just about at teeth grinding stage.

But for all you folks - here's a list of just a few of the bands that will be hitting the east coast this fall (not just New York, but Boston, DC, Philly, etc):

Scissor Sisters - hitting the Manhattan Ballroom Oct 21 (um, if you couldn't tell, I'm pretty much in love with the sisters, Jake Shears and all other scissor sister related items. In fact, when I was at the Siren festival my friend Bridget and I actually saw them on the boardwalk, but couldn't get up the courage to say hi. So instead we awkwardly took pictures of them from a ridiculously short distance. See above pictures. Awesome.)

TV on the Radio - Irving Plaza on Oct 17 and 18. ***FYI this hasn't even been put up on Irving's website yet, but was confirmed on NME.com

Goldfrapp - Oct 18 at Roseland, one of my first posts to MOR... Love them!

Minus the Bear - Also Irving, 10/12

Art Brut - Irving, 10/19, If you haven't seen these guys I would definitely recommend. Their music composition is sub par at best but the performance is hilarious. The lead singer basically speak/yells his angst about awkward sex, his kid brother learning rock & roll, and more gems. I'd be tempted to say he's like Johnny Ramone only for his sheer ferocity, but that would unfortunately sully Johnny's name...

Anyways - as you can see, lots of good stuff just that week! The fall lineup for shows is coming together quite nicely, with several bands that made rounds this summer doing so again this fall...
