Leap Year
This year is a leap year. That means there are 29 days in February. Imagine that, one whole extra day to just take off and do as you will! So I decided a day of musical indulgence would be best. But it seems that the gods have once again ruined all my plans for fun, for Menomena, Fuck Buttons, SebastiAn, I Was A Cub Scout and You’re Only Massive all play Dublin the same night!
This Friday Menomena bring their brand of post-rock goodness to The Sugar Club, while Fuck Buttons create some ‘euphoric noise’ at Whelan’s. Meanwhile indie pop-rockers I Was A Cub Scout will be playing the Voodoo Lounge and the Shell 2 Sea Benefit at the Lower Deck boasts Herv’s breakcore, You’re Only Massive’s techno rapping and more post-rock from Hounds. Later on SebastiAn will be laying it down at Spy, but only if you’ve already bagged some tickets cause it’s already sold out.
Do you see the predicament? So what will I be doing this Friday? Probably sitting at home cursing the calendar and the heavens for this astrological anomaly and the conflicting scheduling it has inspired, while trying not to imagine the musical delights I could be enjoying if i wasn’t so indecisive.
There are loads of tickets for SebastiAn on the door for anyone who wants to get their electro on… it’s gonna be a serious sweatfest though if Chloe last week is anything to go by!
Oh cool, from the Last FM page it seemed like it was sold out. Thanks for the heads up.
