Show Calendar
April 2012 – November 2013
You may know her from her parts in Dum Dum Girls, Chrystal Stilts, or The Vivian Girls – but I like her best as herself, Frankie Rose (at least I think that’s her real name). A friend at work turned me on to her and I’ve never been to Township, so I’m excited to check it out.
Opener = Dive
He is the voice of Archer. He has/had(?) a show on Comedy Central called Jon Benjamin has a Van. He was the voice of the can of vegetables in Wet Hot American Summer. AND he’s coming to Schuba’s.

I passed up their Lolla pre-show which I heard was amazing so I scored tickets right away for their November return to Chicago at the House of Blues. Should be a pretty good way to celebrate my birthday! If only it wasn’t on a Monday…
Here’s a look at what you missed if you didn’t catch them at Lolla this year. See if you can spot me in the crowd.
Bjork, R Kelly, Belle & Sebastian, MIA, Low, Chairlift, Foxygen, Mac Demarco, Frankie Rose, many more
I’ve seen Conor Oberst with Bright Eyes, Monsters of Folk, and as himself, but never with Desaparecidos – his rock band. They put out one awesome record called Read Music, Speak Spanish 10 years ago and then disappeared until reuniting for a small reunion tour last summer. This is their first time in Chicago since reforming.
