weekend 5/1-2 preview

This weekend is a nice, low key weekend. There isn't much going on to write home about, but I will say that it's going to be one of the most beautiful weekends of the year here in D.C. After all, we did pay our dues with a Winter from the Ice Queen's angry vagina.

As far as nightlife, other than a plethora of house parties, there's BYT Presents: Christmas in Heaven II, the lovechild of Mixtape DJ Shea Van Horn's and BYT figurehead Cale. Check it out. It's FREE. Do it.

Friday 4/30, 9:30
Free

As far as concerts this weekend, there are two fantastic ones! First we have the Weezer/Ben Folds show at Byrd Stadium (University of Maryland campus). I have seen Weezer once (amazing) and Ben Folds thrice (possibly the best solo show you'll ever see), and I have to say that this is the best one-two punch all year. Say what you will about Weezer and all their commercial appeal, but they put on a great show, and you can't tell me you won't scream the words to Undone (The Sweater Song), Surf Wax America, and Hash Pipe.

Weezer / Ben Folds
Byrd Stadium
Friday 4/30, 5:00
$40 (General Admission- f**k yeah!)


The second big concert is Sunday's Shout Out Louds show at 9:30 Club. This is sure to be a good one, from one of the best young indie rock bands out there. It isn't sold out and it's only $15. Go see it!

Shout Out Louds
Sunday 5/2, 7:00
$15
