11:53 AM - What a way to start a weekend

I know it's only Wednesday, but the weekend is sort of starting for me tonight. The StereoactiveNYC Roadshow feat. Man in Gray and Gold Streets kicks off tonight at Union Hall in Brooklyn. I'd like to call special attention to the opener on tonight's bill, fellow Brooklyn-based She Keeps Bees. I happened to catch their set at this year's NXNE festival in Toronto, as they were playing shortly before MiG's own set in the same multi-level venue and I'm so happy I was able to get them on this bill! If you're coming tonight please get there early and see their 8pm set! Also, the wonderful DJ Nora K will be on between and after the bands.

Man in Gray - "Last Night's Party"
Man in Gray - "That's How I Escaped My Certain Fate (Mission of Burma Cover)"

I swear I'm not favoring my own band here, the other two just don't have mp3s on their sites that I can link to! Go listen to Gold Streets and She Keeps Bees on Myspace.

It's hard to believe that next weekend is already August 25th... the After The Jump Fest is finally all coming together and looking like it will be an amazing show! Buy tickets for the night show so you can say you were there when all the cool kids are raving about Riot in Belgium in a few months. Proceeds go to the Bronx High School For the Visual Arts via DonorsChoose.org. Also, I realize I haven't even mentioned how awesome it is that Spectrum (aka the post-Spacemen 3 project of Sonic Boom) is headlining the (FREE!) day show. Even if we didn't have a lineup crammed full of some of the best bands NYC has to offer, that performance alone would be worth it.
