Tons To Do Tonite

Alright Knoxville, there is a ton of stuff going on tonite for all of you music lovers....

First up, at the pilot light at 10p, a fourth of animal collective is playing. Josh Dibb, otherwise known as Deakin (or Deaken or Deacon) is playing along with locals coolrunnings. It'll be interesting to see what he's got going on compared to all of the other animals that have gone solo since Merriweather Post Pavilion. I caught a little bit of Panda Bear's show at Moogfest over the last weekend (which was fantastic) and it will definitely be exciting to see what the collective is up to as solo artists.

Second on the agenda, at Barley's, two members from Wu-Tang Clan will be performing. Inspectah Deck (Jason Hunter) and Masta Killa (Jamel Arief) will hopefully bring some of the energy that only the Wu possess. Although its not Method Man, ODB, or Ghostface, it will still be fun to see part of the clan, especially at an intimate (can you use that word for a hip-hop show?) venue like barley's.

Tonite at 90 proof (upstairs of Southbound) Israeli dubstep wizard Borgore will no doubt tear it up with some middle east wobble. Part of the Mad Decent camp (along with others), Asaf Borgor has remixed Passion Pit and My Favorite Things (that's right, dubstep Sound of Music). Opening for the Tel Aviv native will be locals Spook Nasty (Spooky Jones/Fast Nasty) and Meatball Madness. Womp kids be prepared.

I'm sure i missed something, if I did, please let me know. Luckily all of these events take place on the same city block down in the Old City. Hope to see all of you audiophiles tonite. Enjoy the shows!
