April 11, 2009
Ratatat
Presented by Foundation & House of Blues. $15.25 adv/ $18.25 day of show. Doors at 8pm/9 pm show.
"Ratatat fuse hip hop beats with spectacular acrobatic guitar riffs as well as a satisfying amount of the blips and glips of electronica. And they do it well."

* The quote above came from the flyer advert, but i'm not sure what "blips and glips" means? I'm guessing "beeps and blips" is what they intended to say.


April 14, 2009
Digable Planets (SHOW CANCELLED)
plus guests Common Market & DJ BMF (8th Dim./The Social)
Doors at 9:00PM, $15.00, 18 and up.

* I'm disappointed in the cancellation. I saw Digable Planets perform their reunion tour and though, "they're still on point". Blowout Comb was one of those albums that realigned my thoughts about hip hop music vs. commercial rap (aka crap).

May 25, 2009
Isis
Doors at 8:00PM, $12.00 advance / $14.00 day of show, 18 and up. Tickets available at the Social Box Office, the door, and Ticketmaster locations.

The music of ISIS is a suitable metaphor for their 12-year career: patient, meticulous, fraught with tensionand gradually building towards an apex of seismic proportions. From the hypnotically bludgeoning down-tuned riffs of their early years to the gracefully sprawling passages on their pivotal sophomore album Oceanic and continuing through the intricate rhythmic textures and increased melody of 2006's In The Absence of Truth, ISIS have successfully navigated the process of growing and evolving without disavowing their initial vision.
