LIZ PHAIR
First Avenue
Sat 09/15/2018 (8pm/$30)
first-avenue.com
When we saw Liz Phair earlier in June 2018, the number one complaint we had was that it felt stripped down, especially without a drummer (even some “jackass” in the audience yelled, “You need a drummer, Liz!” at the show). All that will be addressed in this upcoming “Amps on the Lawn” long sold out show at First Avenue.
Indiepop band Speedy Ortiz to open. We last saw them in May 2015 and wrote, “Speedy Ortiz's hour-long set was interesting. First of all, the band doesn't do encores; they just play an extra two songs and then immediately head over to the merch table. Like many independent bands, they make most of their money playing these shows and selling directly to fans.”

Critically acclaimed U.K.-based band Nothing But Thieves is back in Minneapolis, in support of their forthcoming new 4-track EP entitled What Did You Think When You Made Me This Way? (Sony Music U.K./RCA Records). They’ve already preview the lead single “Forever & Ever More.”
We last saw the band at the Fine Line Music Café in Oct 2016 and said, “Of course, they saved their best-known song (‘Wake Up Call’) as the set closer, ending on a very high note... with fans demanding more and more.”

I’ve mentioned this before, but at the height of their popularity, we bought scalper tickets to see Wolfmother at Riviera Theatre, Chicago on 25 Nov 2006. We got in at a discount because the show was already starting and ended up missing the opening band.
Speaking of, show up early to check out psychedelic band Little Man, who we recently mentioned was back with new music and local shows.
