Late-breaking Los Campesinos show news...

Not to make Los Campesinos our Fleet Foxes of the day (by posting and posting about them) but I HAVE to post about them this time because there's BIG NEWS to announce about tomorrow night's show.

There're some places around town that have listed Tullycraft as opening the show--but come to find out, no one ever told Tullycraft about the show so they let their well-dressed guitarist Chris Munford head off on holiday to Sweden last week (where he'll be until they head to their East Coast tour next week).

BUT, do not be dismayed -- there will be a part of Tullycraft up on stage opening tomorrow night's show -- a very special part actually. Tullycrafters Corianton Hale and Jenny Mears will be performing as The Special Places.

Who knows what kind of *special* surprises they are going to open the show with, but here's a sample of the duo in action at last year's Magnetic Fields tribute when Cori lead "Papa Was A Rodeo" (just imagine it without Sean singing back-up and without Chris in the background supplying some back up guitar-- pretty sweet, huh?):


And who else here wants to see another Los Campesinos video? Me too! Here's a super dooooper one:


 

Seriously... I don't know how tomorrow night could get any better...

Sooooo cute!

We'll have a review of the Los Campesinos! show soon -- but until then, I'll just keep exclaiming to passers by about how INCREDIBLE the whole night was. LC! was in top form and it's not just me saying that... I spoke with several converts on my way out of Neumos after the show. The sea of huge grins on indie-rockers' faces in the packed venue was an awesome sight. The evening was chock full of joy and bliss. I can't wait to read Kiku's review and see Jeanine's photos from the night so I can relive the whole thing.
