Hey hi I wanna tell you about this awesome show I'm going to tomorrow. I am REALLY excited about it! I saw Kælan Mikla back at the Fine Line in May as part of an Icelandic outreach something or other. They played first and were best; I loved the bass and the synths and I had no idea what was being screamed to me in a language I didn't know but I totally believed, became an instant fan and even though I was at my brokest, I still ended up on Bandcamp collecting all three of their gorgeously coloured vinyl LPs. I also took the opportunity to play "Kalt" on KFAI the first chance I got. The whole time I was experiencing them in concert, I thought "this is SO Dark Energy" and clearly I mustn't have been the only one because a short few months later this show was announced and I couldn't have been happier. At least, that's what I thought! As the lineup evolved, my joy and anticipation were put into overdrive when I learned that more than one act I loved were gonna be part of this show. Dudes, not only do I want you to go to this show to see Kælin Mikla, I NEED you there EARLY to see the openers. Observant are a new collective but have quickly become one of my very favourite local live artists and I suspect when you see them, you might think that as well. I'm thrilled to get to see them again! (They're also at Palmer's on Saturday as part of the Apocalypse Theater fest, but that's another time and place and I am sure I will miss it....but I digress.) Plus, always-on DJs Grant Mayland and DIE/ASPORA will keep you swaying and I wish I had something cool to say about Hardhat p.i. but I haven't seen them live yet BUT I know they are also perfect for this bill so ask me after I see them Friday. YOU SHOULD BE AT THIS SHOW WITH ME. I'll be the guy with the hair who walked all the way to Part Wolf.
