Another excellent installment in this weekend's Lost Generation concert series... not sure who is DJing at the bar tonight, but knowing Wanz, I bet it will be someone good. We like pretty much every band on this list, again, and you should go, again, unless you've decided to go see:


Midlake @ Hailey's. This place will probably be crowded as shit tonight, so I hope they've got the a.c. going. This is CD release weekend for what could (and most likely will be) the most commercially successful rock release from north Texas this year (unless Flickerstick or Drowning Pool puts out another record), so all of you detached observers will enjoy it. And I know that you could reasonably argue that Midlake isn't really doing anything new on Van Occupanther or however you spell it, because they aren't. But if you're into American pop rock, you will hear how well these guys are doing what they do by the time the first chorus on the first song hits, and you won't really care too much about rock history after that.


We're especially looking forward to the Falkon and Pleasant Grove tonight.
