Two great shows going down this weekend in the ATX, unfortunately both on the same night (Saturday, October 24). Follow That Bird!'s angular post-punk has finally been committed to wax, and those ladies and lads are out to celebrate. They're playing a record release party at the United States Art Authority to commemorate their new 10", and get this--$7 gets you in the door AND a free copy of said 10". Not too shabby.
Meanwhile, Austin's perennially-on-the-cusp White Denim bring their muscular punk-soul-funk to the Mohawk to celebrate the release of their second album, Fits, which dropped on Tuesday. They've been better received in Europe than in their own hometown, which is ridiculous--get out there, Austin, and claim these firebrands as your own.
Both shows start at 9 PM. Do it to it.
