Can't Miss It: Weekend Edition Nov 20-22
As previously mentioned, tonight's Wig Bash at the High Dive, as well as the second, final, and sold-out performance of Nada Surf at the Showbox. Also sold out: Springsteen at Key Arena Saturday. But never fear, there's still other options out there, like Golem at Nectar tomorrow night. We don't know much about them, but we've heard that the six-piece klezmer band play "Eastern European drinking songs" and that they're "fun as hell." That's enough for us to make a recommendation.
This weekend also offers, not one, not two, but three--three!--performances by José González at the Triple Door (two Saturday and one Sunday). He is one hard-working Swedish-Argentinian troubadour.
For something completely different, tomorrow night also offers the double entendre-laden, post-punk songs of garage band Louis XIV, along with new-wavey pop openers What Made Milwaukee Famous (who are actually from Austin) at Chop Suey. Here's a fencing-happy video from the latter.
And finally, Sunday night head to Ballard for the out-there alt-country blues-rock of Jim White at the Tractor.

I've been hearing nada surf has been sold out for awhile, but we were able to get tickets at the box office yesterday, and ticketmaster.com is still showing them as available right now.
yes, i've noticed that too. it seems they've released some extras in the past few days. i'm sure they'll be gone in a few hours, though.
