Bill Callahan Tonight


The very talented, very droll Bill Callahan plays the Neurolux tonight, Thursday. He also goes by Smog., but he's put two albums in a row out under his own name, the amazing Woke on a Whaleheart from 07, and the brand new Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle.


Callahan's music is hard to describe in a way that sounds appealing, but the music itself, and his dry delivery, are very compelling. He's a strange bird, and we're lucky to have him play here at the Lux.


Don't miss this show. And for god's sake, if you do go, don't sit there and yell at your friends at the top of your voice. Boise crowds are notoriously bad for shows like this (see: the travesty that was Califone at the Lux, poor poor Alexi Murdoch, etc etc), and if you're just there to make the scene and be an a-hole, at least do it in the pool room. Kthanks.
