Tortoise is playing on the 20th and Battles on the 28th. Anyone thinking of checking either of these out?

I just saw The Sea and Cake in NYC and John Mcintyre of Tortoise plays drums for them...he blew my fucking mind. Definately worth just going for that dude.
For 20 bucks...its worth seeing a band like Tortoise at the Rhythm Room.

The new Battles record is amazing, although, I have to work the night they are playing here. bummed.

it was really good! they had the two drummers up front. which was awesome. amazing musicians they played for over an hour and 1/2 and had 2 encores...the place was packed. very hot temperature-wise. but they all looked like they were really enjoying themselves and i am betting would probably really want to come back here again.

lichens opened up for them and joined them on the final encore. I didnt really dig lichens' opening set. it was way too mellow and slow - it wasn't bad but just didn't fit the environment it was being performed in. I'm sure listening to the recordings are fun, but for me, it was one of those things that gets really boring to watch/listen to.

i enjoyed it.
