August New York Gigs Preview

Sorry I didn't do this yesterday, I had some tech problems. So all that's missing is last night's Ziggy Marley show.
Tonight is a sad night - the last ever New York show of Sleater-Kinney. It's all sold out. I will be at a friend's house watching old wrestling clips instead. Webster Hall will be the site of this last hurrah.
If anyone else feels like doing like anything else, there's Bo Diddley @ BB King's tonight.
