Tonight! Tonight in Music: Ethan Rose, Adele, Crocodiles
Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Tue, Jan 27, 2009 at 2:58 PM
I planned on attending three shows tonight, but since I've suddenly come down with some sort of Double Sars Avian Hunta Virus (or just the flu), I will probably miss all three. But that's no reason why you shouldn't catch some live music on this particularly busy Tuesday night.

Missing Ethan Rose at the Oaks Park skate rink is going to break my heart—instead of just breaking my ankle (which would have happened if I was rollerskating)—but thankfully the entire show will be broadcast live on the PICA site. I plan on staying home and judging everyone on their skating technique.

Adele is a tougher sell for me, but I'm in the minority considering that her appearance at the Wonder tonight is way sold out. Will her voice on stage match the range she flexes on 19? Does anyone else think her "Chasing Pavements" video is very similar to Radiohead's "Just" video? Both make me want to lie down on the sidewalk for awhile. "I'm fine. Please, will you just let me lie here?"

Perhaps I'll gather up my NyQuil and Snuggie and head over to the East End to catch the cut-n-paste DIY punk of Crocodiles. Watching this video is like having a seizure while pressing your face against the glass of a B&W photocopier.
