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.

So I’m dumb and bought tickets to Of Montreal and Rodriguez on the same night. I’m going to Rodriguez because he might not come back around, but tell me this doesn’t look fun:

Ah yeah! Rx Bandits are playing the Resignation all the way through in honor of its 10 year anniversary.

Openers: Falldown, Samantha Harlow

Tickets

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: The Tillers

I passed up seeing these weirdos the last time they played Lincoln Hall because Rodriguez was playing the same night. My take was that Rodriguez might not be back around, but of Montreal will. And I was right. Going to get down at this one.
