Today if you haven't got tickets for Good Shoes at Resident we gave advance about last week, then you might be able to squeeze in according to an email yesterday:
"We have the Good Shoes in-store tomorrow at 6pm (Weds 13th). We will be prioritising entry for ticket holders but we will endeavour to squeeze in as many people as possible, so if you don't have a ticket, come down anyway, stand on your tip-toes & check out the band's new songs in a nice, intimate fans-only atmosphere."
If not a fan of squeeze then we recommend Saxon Shore playing live at The Freebutt.
The Freebutt, you may have noticed we quite like for our live music. Today Saxon Shore with support are playing. From the USA, calling them "one of the most hyped instrumental-post-rock bands during the last years" as press blurb does might sound a bit like an exaggerated NME review. However, they were formed by Matthew Doty and J Tillman of Fleet Foxes in 2001 and released five albums since. Whilst Tillman's moved onto full-time Fleetfoxes (and a solo project), the line-up's shifted around a bit into a five-piece band and they're playing tonight.
They're quite nice and rather instrumentally - a bit related to Explosions in the Sky. A kind of intellectual basking style (perhaps). There's two videos of their tracks here - very sorry but we couldn't find a video without a picture of five posing blokes.
They're on at 7.30pm for £5.50 if you buy online before you go - available from WeGotTickets and SeeTickets and most likely also on the door for a pound or two more.
