On Sunday the Simple Minds are at the Wilbur (wish I had tix for this show, sigh) and at Church it’s Thunderbloods and Tigerman WOAH! Monday has Frightened Rabbit at the Paradise which is the first of 2 nights there and at the Middle East Upstairs there’s lots of cool chick playing with Lovers, Kitschenettes, Shepardess and Miss Geo.
