There's a great night of music lined up this Friday at Valentine's!

+ Sgt Dunbar and the Hobo Banned will be playing a send-off show before heading out on tour! The tour includes a stop at the famous SXSW! As a bonus, they'll also be releasing a new five-song EP called Charles Mingus' Garbage Pile!

+ Eric Margan and the Red Lions are also on the slate! And they'll be releasing their new album Midnight Book!

+ But, wait, there's more! If you go this Friday, We are Jeneric will play for you! And double your pleasure with a performance by Salon Style (that's Gaven Richard of Kamikaze Hearts fame!)!

That's three great local bands all on one night! For the low, low price of just $7! That's right, $7 -- no shipping and handling!

Shamwow!

There's also a good show at the Upstate Artists Guild Friday with Coma (ex-Zahnarzt,) Severe Severe and some other bands I don't really know including the excellently named Ghoul Poon and Grabass Cowboys.

Thanks for the mention, we just wanted to let you know Sgt Dunbar will only be playing as an eight piece this friday. We kicked the other 72 members out of the band for voting for themselves in the metroland readers poll. It still should be a fun show though.

Gaven Richard. It can't be coma w/out keegs. Go see Gaven.

I was just going to add the UAG show, which is going to be a good one! You can preview the bands playing on their myspace pages:

Having a child is indeed a second shot or at least a reminder of the magic of childhood. I thought of this yesterday and my 4 year old and myself rode figure 8's and generally raced all around the now empty parking lots of Sage, Albany College of Pharmacy and OPWDD on our BMX bikes. So many childhood 'far away' journeys are actually so close.
