Otherwise Engaged: Avers

It is an unfortunate reality for the serious concertgoer that on occasion, there will be more than one show on any given night that you really, really, REALLY wanna go to. Since the vast majority of us don't own a time machine, nor have the ability to either clone ourselves or split ourselves in half (or thirds or quarters depending on the night in question), this tends to present a problem. Difficult decisions are made based on a variety of variables (perhaps some of you even make lists of pros and cons), and ultimately, a show is chosen. But those other shows are still gonna be killer, and I'd like to give a little face time to the shows that, while I can't go myself, are still highly recommended.

Part of that magical, ridiculously talented music scene down in Richmond, Avers is bringing their magical, ridiculously talented noise up to DC this very evening. The heady psych makers are touring latest release Omega/Whatever, and from what I've heard it's a peach of a record. If you're free, get thee over to DC9 to soak it all in.
