THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS
First Avenue
Thu 03/15/2018 (8pm/$30)
first-avenue.com
We can't be silent, because they might be giants!
Yes, John and John of They Might Be Giants are back in town, with their all new album I Like Fun. We’ve been the Brooklyn band many, many times, and they are always such fun, like the title of their new album.
Although I know every TMBG’s song lyrics pre-Apollo 18, you don’t need to be a hardcore fan to enjoy their shows. TMBG’s songs are catchy, and you’ll find yourself singing along - even though it’s the first time you’ve heard it!
On this “An Evening with They Might Be Giants”, the duo will be playing a double set, meaning they are the opening band and headliner. They’ll likely play some songs from I Like Fun, but also promised “deep cuts”, so you’ll have to stick around for the second set to hear some old classics.
I Like Fun arrives on vinyl on March 16th, but I suspect you may be able to purchase it at the First Avenue show the day before.

We love singer Jonathan Richman (of Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers), and always delighted to see that he’s back in town. He doesn’t use the internet, so we’re not actually sure how he’s getting word out whenever he’s in town.
