TONIGHT IN LOS ANGELES: CONSTANTINES - RAINBOW ARABIA

CONSTANTINES are headlining The Echo tonight and if you've never experienced a live show by this mighty act from Toronto, you're missing out. Matt of Insound once summed it up best when he said that seeing them perform live was like what it was probably like seeing THE CLASH in person back in the day. He's right, they just feel like an important band rather than your usual indie hipster fair-weather friends. Everyone's darlings, CRYSTAL ANTLERS are main support so this show should be worth your scratch.

Other shows of note, you have RAINBOW ARABIA and VOICES VOICES over at Spaceland for Club NME night if you're feeling arty and kinda kultural, MACK WINSTON & THE REFLECTIONS at 3 Clubs if you want to have a Keith Richards evening, and THE FRAIL at Club Moscow.
