The economy might be failing, but fret not: we have good music. This weekend our artists have sprawled through the continental United States, with specific instructions to play matchless gigs this evening to stave the bad and lift our Dow-weighted shoulders. Castanets will be in Chapel Hill at UNC with the comrades and far-from-home, Brooklyn-based Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson. Cryptacize is in Athens, GA with Danielson of all folks!, playing at the illustrious 40 Watt Club (doors at 9pm, $10). Grampall Jookabox, donning the newly released Ropechain album, decided upon Madison, WI at Cafe Montmarte for tonight, marking in at just $7 at 9:30pm. Finally, My Brightest Diamond is playing at the Cafe Du Nord in the Swedish American Hall in San Franciso with the enchanting Clare & The Reasons. Tickets are $16, and doors open at 6:30pm.
(For all the procrastintors in San Francisco, and we know there are many of you, Half-handed Cloud is making a surprise appearance at Hemlock Tavern this Wednesday.)
