This Weekend - A.S. Staff Picks
November 14th 2008, 4:17 PM | by Caleb Moore | |**I’ve assuredly missed some shows. Please add your show/suggestions via comments.
FRIDAY
- Brightblack Morning Light, Zomes, Fursaxa — The Talking Head Club. (CM/GS)
Get your freak-folk/droney/stoner jams out at this FULLY stacked, not-to-be missed show. Brightblack Morning Light = blissful reverb-soaked throwback mellowness.
MP3: Brightblack Morning Light - Oppressions Each

SATURDAY
- Grand Buffet, Jones, Height, AK Slaughter — Ottobar (CM)
Hip hop that don’t stop. Grand Buffet is fucking hilarious and they’ve got mad flow. I suggest this show just for them. AK Slaughter, of City Paper fame as well as Height, whom I’ve never seen, but sounds really fucking great ( via Baltimore Round Robin Compilation). - Necking, Teeth Mountain, Whales and Cops, Hume, Twins — Hexagon (CM/GS)
Come out for a great show at Baltimore’s best new(ish) music venue. Local avant instrumentalists + New York “punk deconstruction” + ???. Nuff said?

Sunday
- Kalaidescope — The Depot (CM)
“DJs Pony Sundown, Pietro, & Grey spinning 60s psychedelic, garage, rock & roll, and soul ’till 2 am plus psychedelic wall projections.” Sounds like fun to me.
