Fri 10: The Wet Darlings (CD release), The Receiver, Earwig (ages 18+) 9pm
PICK: The Wet Darlings are likable, but remind me too much of some incidental show band in the background of some early 1980's movie bar scene (I'm thinking the one with Demi Moore as a struggling singer specifically). The Receiver reminds me of Sigur Ros and Radiohead's later day minimal experimentation with more pop and optimism, oh, and late 70's/early 80's Genesis. Earwig helped define Columbus music in the early 90s and continues to do so.

PICK: Dane Terry probably should have been a band/man to watch a few years ago with keyboard and broad influences spanning all sorts of genres from the last 200 years or so. I haven't seen them in years, but I remember American Jobs reminded me of Bauhaus/Peter Murphy with pre-recorded guitar parts.
