guess who i'm excited to see next weekend? check out the spectacular schedule for the hollywood bowl.
July 18th: The Swell Season/She & Him/The Bird and the Bee [tix]
i've never seen she & him live, so my MOST anticipated band for the night vote goes to them. they'll be backed (in part) by a band called the chapin sisters (check out a free d/l of their song "digging a hole" here, as well as a rad cover of britney spears' "toxic" on their myspace page). i've never seen once (movie site here) but i have heard many a good thing about the swell season, so that should be epic as well. it'll be my first time picnic-ing at the hollywood bowl, so i'm going to say a little prayer to the weather gods... be good to me, please!
August 29: Chemical Brothers/Chromeo/Yacht [tix]
Sept. 18th: Phoenix/Grizzly Bear/Girls [tix]
seriously contemplating checking this one out. phoenix!
Sept. 19th: Viva Mexico! [tix]
Sept. 26th: Vampire Weekend/Beach House/The Very Best [tix]
vampire weekend was definitely one of those bands that i REALLY did not want to like. i mean, really. i resisted for a really long time. for one, their name had the word vampire in it... and you all know how annoyingly-into-twilight i am (say it out loud... say it). secondly, everyone was raving about them. EVERYONE. which made me feel like this. now i'm tired of resisting. it's going to be awesome.
Sept. 30: Pavement/Sonic Youth/No Age [tix]

The Chapin Sisters aren't SHE & HIM's backing band, they are just part of a great collection of talent they've put around them. They (The Chapin Sisters) are still great. But the mighty SHE & HIM show will make you fall in love with Zooey (& M. Ward).
thx for the clarification-- that is exactly what i meant but obviously didn't word it properly.
so excited to see she & him!
