Our Pick: Andrew Bird @ Largo at the Coronet

Tonight LA is busy with the usual Monday night residencies. We've got Rademacher at the Echo, Kenan Bell at Spaceland and Manhattan Murder Mystery at Mr T's Bowl. And San Diego-based indie rockers Pinback will be headlining the Echoplex. But seeing them live does tend to expose how big of a slob front man Rob Crow actually is—both musically and, well, otherwise. Could we pass up recommending to go see Andrew Bird perform at Largo at the Coronet? Absolutely not. The classically-trained violinist will demonstrate his mastery of the language with his awe-inspiring one-man show for one last night.
