Jack Conte, Dubious Ranger, All My Pretty Ones @ Elbo Room, SF, Monday 3/16
by The Scene on March 16th, 2009
Although it’s been a helluva weekend, and we’re all feeling mighty rocked by all sorts of awful parties and hangovers– not to mention this town has to prep itself for true St Paddy’s Day on Tuesday– we’re still feeling good enough to go to this show. Hell, since Dubious Ranger and The Scene share quite a bit of staff, we kind of have to.
But we don’t really *have* to go… We GET to go to this show. This is because Jack Conte is one awesome dude. This wunderkind has been rolling around the country with a one-man performance rig that at times approaches Rube Goldberg if he was into MIDI, and now we hear he’s got an entire band, which should be nothing short of delightful. Oh, and did we mention this? Go watch it. Oh and this too. He’s a bit of a youtube hero, and definitely a friend of the Scene.
It all goes down at 9pm, Monday 3/16 at Elbo Room in the Mission on Valencia between 16th and 17th. Bring your fixie and your hip snobbery. PBRs are $2, of course, because it’s hipster-town. The Scene says go.
