Goings On the Go Playlist - July 20, 2009

You Can Be a Wesley, Casper & the Cookies, Everything, Now!, Magic Magic - The Middle East Club, Upstairs, Cambridge ??? $8
Its a damn fine night of psych-swirl pop at the Mid East upstairs Monday Night. Consider it an extension of the weekend's "Loose Psych" fest at Church except with more melody and less stoner rock. A lot less stoner rock. Boston popsters You Can Be a Wesley headline with what I'm sure will be an exciting set, but I recommend arriving early to check out-of-towners Casper & the Cookies (continuing the Athens, Georgia tradition) and fellow road haulerrs and superfluous punctuators Everything, Now!. Remember kiddos, these guys are out of towners, so try and show them that Boston doesn't deserve its chilly rep, eh?

Verb the Adjective Noun, Nini and Ben, Margaret Glaspy Band - Church, Fenway 8:00pm $8, 21+
Verb the Adjective Noun is all over Boston for the next two weeks, and I recommend getting on them early. Alt-folk shuffles up against expansive pop latticework - sing-a-long choruses a guarantee. Early Flaming Lips by way of My Morning Jacket? Get ready to act like you knew them when.

Thick Shakes, KC Quilty, Team Teamwork, Fortran - P.A.'s Lounge, Somerville 8:30pm $8 (21+) /$11 (18-21)
Three great bands and some guys I've never head of. It will be great. I promise. I've rambled on Thick Shakes before, and KC Quilty is sure to bring the mid-nineties indie vibe like no other, but the secret is to get there bright and prompt for Fortran - the best, brightest, and loudest thing to come out of MIT since *insert geek joke.*
