Tonight’s Grizzly Bear show will be my fourth time seeing the band at their own headlining gig — sixth overall if you count their brief performance at the 2007 New York Revenge of the Bookeaters show and running into co-frontman @edwarddroste in Central Park after they’d opened for the Decemberists that summer. Notably, though, it’s the first chance I’ll have to hear the band burn through their tremendous Veckatimest material. I expect glory — and to see yr smiling faces there. P.S., folks, epic dude Kurt Vile headlines Spaceland on Friday, file that one under can’t miss, too.

More tour dates, as always, in the ongoing calendar.

    saw them in chicago last month. maybe it was all the beer I drank, but it felt pretty transcendent. even the crusty punk kid we brought along had nothing but praise. possibly my favorite (but maybe also the shortest) show ever.

    I wish I could tattoo their music over my heart
