There’s a whole bunch of shows going on Friday, but I’m recommending this one because Wild Beasts is super buzzy right now, and this is their last New York tour date before they head back home to the UK. They just got Best New Music, so the show is certain to be a who’s-who of the “I blatantly follow Pitchfork” scene. Present company sort of included. They’re an updated version of glam-rock, so it should be a fun show. Catch them now to figure out if they’re just the next overhyped thing, or the next David Bowie.

A friend went to the show at Mercury Lounge last night. On that, he said it was the “best non antony show of the year (not to mention AOTY contender).” I am not convinced (or compelled to go).
