Wow, sorry for the long break and please except my apologies. I think we all know why we’re here and it’s because of the music. So lets get to it. Here are some bands that have been playing on my playlist for the summer. Some are new and some are old…
Shows and Vids

Hi everyone. This post should be short and sweet, well probably more on the short side.
Au Revoir Simone will be playing at The Echo on July 7. I believe the tickets will be $14 at the door and $12 online.
If you’re looking for a site that keeps track of all the bands that you love and tell you when they go concert, you might want to check out this site called songkick. It tracks your favorite bands, emails you when they play in your area, and it’s free!
Sambassadeur just released a video for “I Can Try” off their new album European. I found this video on a site called stereogum, which is another cool music website if you’re looking for more sites to peruse through. Enjoy
Some Upcoming Shows

As you know The National will be touring out here in Southern California this week, and thanks to my lovely wife, she surprised me with tickets for this Friday at the Wiltern! I’m pretty excited to see them play live since I missed them when they were touring for the album Boxer. Here’s one of my favorites from that album.
Another concert on the horizon will be the Shout Out Louds and they’re playing at The Glasshouse in Pomona on Monday the 24th. The tickets are $20 at the door, but I will unfortunately miss them this time around. If you have a chance to see them, or need some cheering up since LOST will air its final show the night before, then I would highly recommend seeing this band. I saw them play in Seattle and I remembered them putting on a pretty good show. Here’s some vids to pass the time.
One show that I definitely want to go see is Stars. My friend introduced me to this band not too long ago and I’m glad he did. They’re playing at The Troubadour on June 22nd and 23rd. They just released their single called “Fixed” and their next album The Five Ghosts will be available June 22nd. I guess I have to download their album before the show that night!
Hopefully you get a chance to see anyone of these bands. Cheers!
