The other stompy boot has dropped on my run of good concert luck. Having so recently managed to see my top four favorites--Tom Waits, Nick Cave, the Sisters of Mercy, and finally Leonard Cohen--I now move into my second tier of favorite bands. And the next on the list is Das Ich, whom I adore. They toured through Texas once already, and I totally missed it.
So guess who was playing in Manhattan tonight, the day I was there? Yeah. And I knew about it all day. I was in a store that pre-sold tickets. I bought a dress and everything. But the show wasn't till midnight, and we just could not manage that without serious sturm und drang.
I am starting to fear that Das Ich, And One, and the Crüxshadows are all cursed for me. I have got to find a way to break this damn streak.
In other news, New York is still gorgeous, my editor is both awesome and adorable, and ARCS of The Drowning City are soon to be loose in the wild.
