Tonight In Rock: Chris Cornell, Timbaland, The Mountain Goats, The Monolators
The Monolators will be playing tonight at Spaceland | Picture via the Monolators' Myspace
Our Pick: The Monolators' DON’T DANCE record release w/ You, Me and Iowa, Summer Darling, Correatown @ Spaceland
Tonight, for some strange reason, Chris Cornell and Timbaland will be performing together at the House of Blues. Don't ask us for an explanation. Durham-based folk rockers the Mountain Goats will be playing the Troubadour with the wild party machine that is Kaki King. And Girl Talk is playing his second night of a two-date stint at the Henry Fonda Music Box. But we suggest heading over to Spaceland to catch LA-based the Monolators. They will be celebrating their record release with an array of other great local bands.
