For local people, the Thrilladelphia festival is almost with us. It provides a great chance to check out/support local bands. Not sure how many shows I'll manage to get to, but I'll at least be at the Khyber on the 28th to see The Swimmmers, Grammar Debate, Persona, and Illumina.
Anyone have any other recommendations?
And, on a mostly unrelated note, residents of Chicago, Detroit, Brooklyn, DC, Philly, and Boston should take the opportunity to see Gogol Bordello this week.
...oh, and the new one from the Chicks isn't out for 7 weeks and it's #28 at Amazon...
