CBGB founder Hilly Kristal kicked the bucket last week, and we're channeling his distinctive spirit to bring you an awe-inspiring lineup of idiosyncratic rock. Enjoy.
"Elder statesman" is usually a phrase we reserve for fat, bald, and boring old white guys, but we're going to have to make an exception for Jarvis Cocker. He was writing hummable pop gems and bum-rushing Michael Jackson on stage when your biggest worries were collecting limited-edition pogs and getting your first pube. Tonight we invite you to virtual Bowery Ballroom for a massive ingestion of Britpop from one of its prime purveyors.
Tonight LES fixture Lissy Trullie and her almost all-girl band, The Fibs, will be spackling the walls of virtual Pianos with tasteful, tightly packaged rock of the catchy-as-hell variety. Stop by if you're a fan of bowler hats, cute ladies, and no-nonsense tunes.
It's just plain lazy to label Brooklyn trio The Big Sleep as experimental, psychedelic, or post-rock -- they're all misnomers. That said, don't be surprised when catch the show at virtual Mercury Lounge tonight and find yourself glassy-eyed, drooling on your slip-ons for long periods of time while watching their set.
