It's been a while since we've heard from The Forms. The Brooklyn four-piece put out their debut album Icarus in 2003 to widespread acclaim, with the Steve Albini-produced work earning an 8.5 from Pitchfork for its "wiry, punchy, indie pop with refreshingly un-hackneyed time-signature games and judiciously placed dissonant chords."

Al "Ballard is a city unto itself" Gore and his political campaign came to Key Arena last night. Officially he was here on An Inconvenient Truth business and the majority of his time on stage was spent delivering the world's most famous slideshow, but he also knocked down a few White House anecdotes and dropped his Clinton impersonation.
