But I Just Like Music

If you go to only three shows this weekend, make sure it’s these. Really there are only two shows you need to know about this weekend, and they both involve the same band. That’s right, M83 is finally in town and they’ll be playing the Granada Theater on Saturday AND Sunday night. Benefits of catching [...]

We’re here at Dallas’ best spot for vinyl for a last minute ‘ninja show’ from Amanda Palmer. And yes, Neil Gaiman is in tow. Just chilling on the astro turfed stage. It’s hard to tell among the rows of vinyl and CD, but I’m guessing there are 100 people here, and more keep trickling in. [...]

If you go to only two shows this weekend, make sure it’s these. Look. There are really only two places you should be this weekend (and unfortunately you have to choose). Doc’s Records in Fort Worth and Good Records in Dallas. It is Record Store Day on Saturday after all! Good Records Record Store Day [...]

This just in from our friends at Good Records: Amanda Palmer is town mixing with the illustrious John Congleton. She decided to take the night off and perform “Live From The Astroturf.” The length of the performance depends upon the audience interaction. Spread the word. This will be one of for the history books. We [...]

If you go to only three shows this weekend (plus Thursday and Monday), make sure it’s these. It’s been a busy week for great shows in Dallas. Keep Shelly in Athens played Monday at the Prophet Bar, At the Drive In played Trees, and Real Estate played Club Dada on Tuesday. Tonight, you’ve got the [...]

As if the past two days at SXSW weren’t enough – bring on the tunes! Made it back to Dallas in under 3 hours – just enough time to hit Brofest from Parade of Flesh at Dada. Solid lineup from a handful of bands I hoped to catch at SXSW, but missed. First act is [...]

Christmas came a little late for the team here at BIJLM, but it was worth the wait. Santa got us a perfect gift – a brand new(ish) Dallas band that freaking. rocks. We caught Mystery Skulls’ performance to open the night at Club Dada’s NYE bash, headlined by Astronautalis. While the crowd was pretty sparse, [...]

Alright folks, in the spirit of America’s best cyber shopping holiday of the year, we’ve got a few pairs of Cyber Monday (it sounds so dirty, doesn’t it?) tickets to Sunday’s Rachael Yamagata show at The Loft. Her support includes Mike Voila. Want to go? It’s easy, we promise. Step 1: RSVP to the event [...]

In case you missed it (and, sadly, we did) – Young the Giant played a free show in Dallas last night to celebrate the launch of the new Windows Phone. Luckily, for latecomers like us, there’s another show tonight, and we have 2 pairs of VIP tickets to give away! That’s right – not only do you get [...]

The dream of the 90s may be alive in Portland, but the memories of 2007 are still alive in Feist. Her show on Tuesday at The Majestic Theater brought back recollections of iPod commercials, illegal music downloads and girl power music – all things that very much resonated with the packed house at this gorgeous venue. Feist [...]
