Halified sent me some cool photos he took with his new camera at the Polyphonic Spree and Futureheads shows.

POLYPHONIC SPREE 2.15.05 @ WARSAW

THE FUTUREHEADS 2.22.05 @ BOWERY BALLROOM

Man, that Spree sure is colorful. Anyway, Hal is available for weddings and Bar Mitzvahs: halified@hotmail.com.

And check out Brooklyn Vegan for recent live pics of Antony & The Johnsons, Damon & Naomi, Mike Doughty, and Devendra Banhart.

I haven’t been to a show all week. Which means I’m extra excited for Monday … Luna’s last show ever (the band, not the lounge, though I’ll miss both.)

I’m looking at ohmyrockness.com and so many shows are already sold out. Remember, buy tickets early! You don’t wanna be the only kid in school without a Go! Team pin.

ALSO, my lovely fiancée would like me to post this message from Leyna Noel, who we saw open for Mirah at the Bottom Of The Hill a few months ago. Recommended!
