I'm still in the midst of everything, and there are many more shows awaiting me before everything's done, but here's a quick run down of what I've seen so far, with much more to come next week:

Brooklyn Vegan Showcase, Pianos:
Nicolai Dunger: good at what they do, not my thing.
The Little Ones: still very tight, their happy music fought valiantly with my Halloween hangover. And they like to do shots during the day, as I discovered the fun way.
Land of Talk: I heart this band.

Webster Hall - The Knife: much more on this later, but this was easily the most visually unique and interesting concert I've ever seen. and some girl puked on my shoes.

Unfortunately, a very drunk friend cut my evening short before I could see anyone else, but I'm already off to a good start.

I've already seen a couple of shows today, and I'm about to head out for the first of four concerts this evening. On my list: Annuals, 120 Days, Hot Chip, Forward Russia, and wherever the rest of my night takes me...
