Brent Amaker and the Rodeo hit the High Dive this Saturday, April 25th. I saw them last when they played Ear Candy's Birthday party, which included whiskey baptisms and panty-tossing. Tix are only $10 and the show also features the Redwood Plan, whom I have not seen yet but have heard wonderful things about.

More photos very soon - with some posted already here.

There are few certain things in this world but one is that OK Go will always put on a fantastic show. I've seen them in venues of vastly different sizes and they're always just on. Plus they are one of the best bands to photograph, no debate there. They did my favorite song of theirs, Invincible last and though I waited happily for it, the entire show was energetic and fabulous.

I made it to the new Crocodile this week! Caught a great bill which included New Faces, a band from Port Townsend that I have been wanting to see for ages. Fantastic group.

Chester French has these talented songs and I never know where they're going with them. I like that. I like to be surprised when listening to music after all. They're two young guys, D.A. Wallach & Maxwell Drummey, from Massachusetts and bless them for making these super sounds. Guitarist Drummey came out in what was a first for me: a Marie Antoinette-inspired wig. Just awesome.

Germany's Cinema Bizarre, also known to me as one of the hottest bands ever, opened for Lady GaGa the other night. I actually enjoy their music too - honestly I heard them before I saw them. I will have an interview I did with them ready very soon. In the meantime please drool over these photos for, with me.

I couldn't get any shots of their keyboardist, Romeo. Sorry Romeo. Check out the entire gallery here.

Plus I have full galleries ready of Lady GaGa:

Lady GaGa took over the Showbox last night. I've got tons of photos of on their way. Here's a couple:

The Blakes are always worth seeing live because their live performance is not only exciting but the music sounds different from their CDs. They’re anything but lazy performers. I don’t think I quite forgot how great a song Pistol Grip is - but Friday’s show proved again just how great and dirty it is.

I'll have more photos soon!

Iglu & Hartly came to Seattle last week and played a fantastic set at Chop Suey. I love every single song this band has. They're unreal.
