The Raincoats and Grass Widow are coming to the Double Door on Monday,
September 19: http://www.doubledoor.com/event/53239/. I am seriously
considering making the drive up from St. Louis to see this amazing
double-bill (because it sure isn't coming to STL!). Wondering if
there are any Chicago TGs in Chicago who would like to get together
for drinks or dinner or something before the show - or who could even
lend me a couch for a few hours of sleep before the drive back
downstate.
Perhaps this will help assuage the pain I feel of not being able to
attend Jeff Mangum's ATP, where YMG are playing and the Raincoats are
performing their first album in its entirety. Wait: no, it won't.
But a Raincoats show in my general region of the country would be the
next best thing.
