Show Calendar
April 2012 – January 2014
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’s Him from She and Him but without the pretty hot, but kind of annoying Zoey Deschanel.

Part of Just for Laughs Chicago.
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.
Sold Out
My Morning Jacket front man Jim James comes to the Vic for a 420 show.
His new solo album, Regions of Light and Sound of God, is great and is currently streaming for free on NPR’s First Listen.

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.
Opener: Video Tape
