Johnny Flynn played a set at the Music Hall of Williamsburg on 10/22/10.
Although it was a short set, he played both favorites and songs from his new album, to be released in the US in a few days.
Don't miss him the next time around...
Show 50+11
Ingrid Michaelson and her band played the Best Buy Theater in NYC on 10/13/10.
Entering to Led Zep's 'Immigrant Song', the band uncovered, then covered the song.
Ingrid was funny, sincere and talented as usual. Her band is a tight musical unit and good friends too.

Show 50+9 (50+8 was Taylor Swift at Nassau Coliseum; no pics).
Titus Andronicus made a stop on their "Monitour" at SUNY Purchase's student center. Debuting their new album "The Monitor," this was a free show and a warmup for their sold out show at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ.
They played a late, hot and intense set for a small crowd of SUNY students.
Cassie Ramone, of The Babies and Vivian Girls sat in after their set.

Show # 50+7
(50+6 being Wilco in Hartford, 4/9/10; no photos taken).
Wilco played the first of a two night stand at the Wellmont Theater in Montclair, NJ. These were shot for the Vulture blog at New York Magazine online. All of the photos are on my photoblog 50showsat50.
Part of the show was an acoustic set. The lamps gave the stage an intimate, living room feel.

The National played the first of two shows debuting songs from their new album High Violet. Set to be released 5/11/10 in the US, the band seemed excited to play the new songs.
Guests included Thomas Bartlett AKA Doveman and their horn section that included Kyle Resnick.
This show and tomorrow night were some of the hottest tickets in NYC this week. I got lucky and snagged one of 30 tickets released at 5:30 by the band for fans.
