If you're looking for an Art Garfunkel review, as a number of people were on Sunday, you're going to have to wait until Thursday when the column goes online, as I describe the show and the venue in there. It'll be worth the wait (probably). Artie was the only show I went to this weekend. Meanwhile, there's a crapload of shows coming next weekend, not the least of which is Landing on the Moon (who I'll be featuring online this Wednesday), Ghosty, Clair De Lune and Eagle*Seagull this Saturday at Sokol. Anonymous America/Sarah Benck is Friday at Sokol, the same night as Simon Joyner and the Wind-up Birds at O'Leaver's.

And speaking of O'Leaver's... local legend MarQ Manner, who has done more than his share of shows over the years, is now involved with organizing O'Leaver's shows. In fact, he e-mailed me the following shows listing, and promises that an O'Leaver's Myspace site will be going online Wednesday (If I get a link, I'll post it here). A glance at the list (which doesn't necessarily include every show, apparently some 1 Percent and Someday Never shows are missing) indicates that the venue will be plenty busy over the next couple months.

As they say in The New Yorker, rock stars' lives are complicated, so call ahead before attending if you're not willing to take a chance. I'll likely confirm most of these dates a day or so before the show, or you can always check out the anticipated O'Leaver's Myspace site.
