Man Man

Wednesday, March 19th,
Auditorium
8:30 pm, $12 tickets

Tickets available at http://www.bloomingtonarts.info/

Man Man have been understatedly described by NPR as "quirky and mischievous... often with old-world instrumentation and plenty of theatrics." The pre-eminent online music publication Pitchforkmedia.com more extravagantly enthuses, "Man Man's power isn't derived from the genres they stumble across, or the maniac light in their eyes, or the sweat pooling in their beards. It's the unbearable sadness in their marrow and how they transform it, like the existentially distressed but heroically steadfast men men they are, into a terrible and lionhearted joy."
Joining Man Man for this show will be the local talents The Horns of Happiness off the local mini-behemoth Secretly Canadian. This fuzzed-out and hypnotizing psychedelic duo will be joined by a full band to cant wildly and possibly blow into ecstatic horns, special guests to include: Peter King (Uno Moss, Impossible Shapes), Mark Rice (Magnolia Electric Co., The Coke Dares), Chris Barth (Norman Oak, and moderately manic--sometimes maniacal--and always magickal mischief)

"Bowerbirds, from Raleigh, North Carolina, come out of the same nature-worshipping circles as the Microphones, and are similarly understated: Undersung male-female harmonies, accordion and plucky acoustic guitar, brushed drums, and the occasional violin." - Pitchfork Magazine

PLAN NINE SHOW

If you come to Plan Nine shortly before midnight on Saturday, March 1st, you will find it transformed into a psychedelic multimedia wonderland, which will be a real pain in the ass if all you want to do is rent a movie. If you want to freak out to some freaky jams performed by the bands Tammar and Resting Rooster, though, you will have come to exactly the right place. This will also be the first chance that anyone in the world will have to purchase Tammar's new St. Ives LP- a chance that Tammar urges you to take repeatedly throughout the night.
