Preview: The Black Lips with The Vivian Girls @ Logan Square Auditorium 4/22/11
In what could be one of the best pairings, The Black Lips are returning to Chicago to tour on their 6th studio album Arabia Mountain with The Vivian Girls, who have just released their third album to date, Share the Joy Both bands have excelled in the garage rock indie ethos and have continued to grow in both their recordings and live performances. Their music has been consistently fun in a way that sometimes even glorifies the hints of sloppiness (especially with The Black Lips who are all about engaging an audience through novel means).
This show is guaranteed to make your Friday night enjoyable and it's recommended for all the indie kids who don't like dance clubs but relish in moving to great live music.
This show starts at 7pm Friday at Logan Square Auditorium with Outer Minds listed as the first opener. Tickets are still available online here for $15.
