Can't Miss It: Wednesday
Pilot Speed Is Too Good to Be An Opening Band
OK, why didn't anybody tell us about Pilot Speed? We showed up early to last night's Annuals show and while they were good and everything we hoped they would be, upon leaving we were talking about the openers and not the band that motivated our attendance. Even our companion (another head of the Seattlest hydra) was in the dark. Well, here's your tutorial.
Instead of Moby
For some unknown reason Moby's show at the Paramount is sold out. His most recent album, 'Hotel,' is amazingly bland and forgetable. Actually, now that we think about it the album before that was also amazingly bland and forgetable. According to Moby's website, 'Hotel' has gone gold or platinum in France, Germany, Uk, Switzerland, Poland, Belgium, Austria, Portugal, and Italy. Sure, the U.S. may have Focus on the Family's James Dobson, Bill Frist and Fox's 'Life on a Stick' but at least Moby's album hasn't gone gold. Frankly, that is enough to make us want to stand up and recite the Pledge of Allegiance. On second thought since Moby always sports cool glasses, maybe the crowd is just looking for some fashion tips.
Coachella Lineup Announced
The Gang of Four reunion rumors were true: they'll play the second day of 2005's Coachella Festival in Indio, California.
