// I Wanna Take You Out...
On Saturday night, I got to Roseland very late and missed The Black Keys and some of Blonde Redhead's set. Sleater-Kinney was fantastic. Fantastic!! I must see them again.
For S-K pictures go here.
I didn't end up going to that loft party in Brooklyn. I would have gotten lost anyway. I'm not too bummed that I didn't see Stiffed that night but I will see them on Feb. 28th...so it's all good. I ended up at another party where I actually knew my way around the neighborhood and shook Bryan's Beck-holding hands!

The two Interpol shows at Irving Plaza sold out within minutes. I don't think I am EVER going to see this band. For real.
I am tres excited that Ladytron is coming back to nyc!!! I totally missed both Bowery Ballroom shows. Also The Faint and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are back in new york! How amazing is that?!
Hey, you should visit Songfacts. How else would you know that Billy Idol's Dancing with Myself was originally recorded in 1980 with Idol's band, Generation X or Blur's You're So Great was the first song from a Blur album that featured guitarist Graham Coxon as a main vocalist?
