Dick, It’s Got A Really Good Beat and It’s Easy To Dance To…
I was checking out the Gypsy Tea Room’s upcoming schedule, and I was kind of disappointed. They’ve always had the best indie and alternative acts there, but I didn’t see much to get excited about. I did see that the former lead singer of Toad the Wet Sprocket, Glen Phillips, is playing January 8th. And Keane, who I love, is playing the 24th. They sound like Coldplay, and ALOT like Travis, if you remember that whiny Scottish band. Keane’s album Hopes and Fears won “Album of the Year” at the Q Magazine awards in London.
Here’s their hit (and my current favorite)song, Somewhere Only We Know. Geez, I sound like Dick Clark or something.
Song
Tish Hinojosa is playing Jan 7th at Uncle Calvins. I’ve seen Tish live twice, the first time at Ozona in ~’95 and at the Sons of Hermann Hall about 5 years ago.
I thought you were talking about dancing to Dick whatever that is….
No no no! That’s what the hip kids on American Bandstand would always say when they were rating the new songs! That’s okay.. I know you’re not an American….
The Trees schedule is pretty anemic too. Bleah. Time for a road trip, obviously.
