Three Days To Rise || April 19-21, 2007
One helluva weekend is brewing, and the good shows start tonight, so here's the weekend wrapup a day early:
THURSDAY
Sons of Hermann Hall: Bill Callahan / Sarah Jaffe
Everything you need to know about this show, you'll learn from the Jaffe interview I just posted.
Club Dada: Lucero / Catfish Haven
Congrats go out to David Ray and Carlin Stultz, who won tickets to this show courtesy of Charles Attal Presents. I'm hoping that Callahan's set ends early enough so that I can still get to this show in time, as Lucero is among the great hard-touring American bands as of late. And as I said before, Catfish Haven is a rising band in a similar Americana/Springsteen/Lucero/Marah vein that has gotten better and better in just a few short years.
FRIDAY

Dallas Public Library: Baptist Generals
I did a triple-take when I saw a flyer for this gig at CD World the other day. If you think Denton's greatest Sub Pop signee playing at a library is weird, you should probably take a look at the complete 25th Anniversary celebration schedule at the library...something tells us the midnight-to-dawn screening of the Qatsi film trilogy will attract at least a few weirdos. And don't even get us started about the Cosplay contest...4/20, man. Since this will be in a damn library, I expect the Generals to go minimalist again, much like they did at their mindblowing house party show from a few months ago. If you like the Baptist Generals at all, don't even think of missing this special show.
The Cavern: The Tah-Dahs / Laura Palmer / Vic Thrill / The Dutch Treats
Speaking of 4/20, this one is being billed by John Freeman as an Adolf Hitler Birthday Party...which I believe sums up this bill better than any 40-word description of my own. Vic Thrill's the only out-of-towner on this one, and a quick sample of his electro-insanity is very in tune w/ Freeman's Dutch Treats sensibilities.
Dallas Museum of Art: PPT
Uhh... this should be weird.
SATURDAY
Sons of Hermann Hall: Bobby Patterson with Shibboleth
A while back, Dallas '60s soul legend and current 770 AM radio host Bobby Patterson was stuck to the end of a big Dallas music revue show at Sons with a pretty short set. This time, the man gets center-stage treatment with Shibboleth sitting in as his band, along with an assortment of horn players and back-up singers. This should be among the most interesting shows Dallas has seen in years.
Rubber Gloves: The Crash That Took Me
Gigs are rare for these starry-eyed post-Pumpkins rockers, so if you enjoy the best work that [DARYL]'s Dylan Silvers has done in years, get a dose when these guys open for The Appleseed Cast.
Barley House: Sparkepussy Barbie, Pepper Theft
1310 The Ticket fans will probably abound at this to see Grubes, the station's 21-year-old board op, perform covers of Red Hot Chili Peppers songs. Then they will be frightened by Deathray Davies side project Sparklepussy Barbie.
