Sorry for the late update, but Rainer Maria‘s playing a free show at Arlene’s Grocery tonight at 7- no openers, according to their site, so get there on time.

They’ve got an MP3 from their untitled new album (due out some time this fall) on their web site, and I had my own little “look now look again.” This is Rainer Maria? Without the edge, they sound a little like Rilo Kiley.

(a mere 96kbps, to boot)

Still, if they just play “Tin Foil,” that whole show will be amazing.

  1. Hey guys, this is noz from cocaine blunts. I just wanted to let everybody know that I’ve officially come out of the closet. If you’re a man who would like to sodomize me, then come to Washington D.C. next Saturday where I will be holding the world’s biggest gay gang bang. I have to warn you though, this is strictly for professionals. My record for penises in my anus is 15. I also wanted to let you know that I will be shifting cocaine blunts away from Hip-Hop and towards Broadway musicals. One.

  2. I don’t get it. It seems like every show by a band like this should be free. Who the hell in their right mind would pay?

  3. Could not agree more with the previous poster. OMG FREE SHOW BY SHITTY BUT SURPRISINGLY HERALDED BAND TONITE!! AT GRITTY DOWNTOWN VENUE NO LESS! NO OPENERS PURE UNADULTERATED MARIA RAINERTASTIC BLISS FREAKOUT!!

    they’ve always been an overwrought fifth rate 10,000 maniacs.

  4. This thread is for making gay jokes about non-celebrities, not discussing a free show.

  5. Also, by the time you get to fifth rate, isn’t everyone someone else? Like degrees of separation? Couldn’t you be like, “Geggy Tah is totally a sixth rate Tupac”?

  6. you are, at that point, ostensibly someone else but not worthy of being separately identified, as with Geggy Tah and Tupac. That’s the whole point.
