Langhorne Slim

As much as we love to bitch and moan about Boston's House of Blues, they sure do bring the good shows. For those of you not celebrating your newly risen Lord or recovering from a matzo hangover or bailing out your basement, it's totally worth the $6.50 PBRs to get there this weekend.

Starting this weekend of awesomeness are hip-hop JV MVPs K'Naan and Wale. We'll be there, along with our Somali friends (what's up, Butterfly Coffee?), so check back for some kickin' photos (we had guest list issues, plus our fearless reporter vomited both on the walk there and the walk home - hey there, norovirus!).

Friday brings the incredible pairing of melophobe favorites Drive-By Truckers and Langhorne Slim. [Download this gorgeous Langhorne Slim track now!]

And Saturday presents the inimitable, rock-our-faces-off Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

And don't get us started on next week (Ben Folds, Lupe Fiasco and Dashboard Confessional? - yes, please!).

See y'all there.
