Two great concerts coming to D.C.'s 930 Club:
1. SONDRE LERCHE: Fri 9/11 (doors open at 6PM)
Sondre's new album, Heartbeat Radio, drops on Sept 8 and I'm mad excited. I saw Sondre in New York back in freshman year and it was one of the best days of my life. His new album seems really chill and it should be a pretty low key concert, in contrast to the punky one in NYC to compliment his Phantom Punch album. Unfortunately, I don't know if I can go to this concert because it's so early and my concert buddy, Serena, has class until 6 (which should be illegal on Fridays). I guess this means I need to find an interim concert buddy.
2. PHOENIX: Sun 9/27
OMG PHOENIX IS ON TOUR. OMG THEY ARE COMING TO D.C. OMG THEY ARE PERFORMING ON MY MOFO 21ST BIRTHDAY. OMG OMG OMG. There is still no ticket info on 930's site but they better get their act together because I'm GOING to this concert. Fate wants me to go to this concert so I'm GOING. Did you get that? I don't care if I'm late for work the next day because I'M GOING TO THIS CONCERT.
In other news, I've been craving hip-hop/pop music recently. Thus I've been listening to the local pop radio station, which does not do hip-hop nor pop any justice, but it hits the spot sometimes. Top of the crave list: Flo-Rida's "Right Round." Don't ask. I've also been listening to Britney's "Unusual You," which I've liked from the beginning. No doubt the best song from her album.
And another note, watch (P.) Diddy's Making His Band. It's good to see Diddy putting his star power behind musicians, not girls in skimpy skirts and big hair. I'll even ignore the fact he's making a hip-hop "concept album."
Grilling up good music and each other.
