Comment:

i made this mix for a friend who's in new york for the summer. i chose songs that are generally summery and would be fun to see live, and i put more than one song for some bands so that she could get a better idea of what they're like. i also included this list of the bands and when they're playing:

6/26 Wilco- Central Park Summerstage
6/28,29 Clem Snide- Bowery Ballroom
6/28 Rufus Wainwright- Prospect Park (FREE)
6/29 Rufus Wainwright- Central Park Summerstage (FREE)

7/10 Fountains of Wayne- Irving Plaza
7/11,12 The New Pornographers- Bowery Ballroom
7/17 Blur- Hammerstein Ballroom
7/18 Stephen Malkmus- Prospect Park (FREE)
7/21,22 The White Stripes- Roseland
7/23 The White Stripes- Central Park Summerstage
7/24 Spoon- Castle Clinton (FREE)

8/14 Ted Leo- South Street Seaport- Pier 17 (FREE)
8/16 The Polyphonic Spree- Central Park Summestage (FREE)
8/25 The New Pornographers- The Bowery Ballroom

bands i forgot to put on: supergrass and the dismemberment plan. i also intentionally omitted cat power because she was too mellow compared to the other groups and didn't fit well.

aw, you didn't include any Dismemberment Plan? Oh well, at least you've got some Malkmus, Spoon, Wilco. This is a great idea for a mix!

Some great stuff here! Ted Leo and The New Pornographers are absolutely amazing live, and Spoon's not too bad either -- do everything you can to convince your friend to go and see them.

This mix is so awesome...I wish I lived in New York and could go to all these shows! Oh well...I live in Atlanta and I saw The White Stripes two weeks ago (I met them actually!) and I'm seeing Blur at the end of July, so the summer won't be a total waste.
