I was already so excited for the summer concert season with the announcment of the Outside Lands Festival, but things just got a whole lot better with a Tom Waits 2008 tour this summer. Unfortunately, TW isn’t coming anywhere near SF this time around. Here’s to hoping he’ll add on a few shows including one in his neighborhood.

The Acorn are being hailed as this year’s Grizzly Bear or Akron/Family, and I can get behind that description, although, there’s something more earnest and sentimental about their music than either GB or A/F offer.
