Kibbles and Bits


(Blitzen Trapper photo by jade harris)

Tonight, I offer a few tidbits for your consumption:

Thing No. 1. I see on a MySpace bulletin that the dear, beloved Half Shell in Virginia Beach will continue booking music at least through December. Ben from the Shell sent out this message: "i was told to conti​nue booki​ng decem​ber so thats​ a good sign.​ we have food back to norma​l and will be open for lunch​ again​ next week so come suppo​rt!​ also looki​ng to do big shows​ in dec so hit me up now so we can keep the venue​ runni​ng."

Thing No. 2. Iron & Wine play The NorVa tomorrow. That's good. Even better is that Blitzen Trapper is the opening act. I've wanted to see those guys ever since my man Joe Atkinson turned me onto them awhile back.

Thing No. 3. The always entertaining Southern Culture on the Skids is set to play The Jewish Mother on Thursday night. That show and Dexter Romweber's visit to the Taphouse this weekend make up a sort of unintentional Chapel Hill roots rock extended weekend. Raise hell and show your ass appropriately.

Thing No. 4. Mas Y Mas will be back at The Boot on Friday, on a bill with Benjy Ferree and Shortstack. For more on that show, go here.
