Tonight In Rock: Prince, Tom Morello, Madeleine Peyroux, Chad VanGaalen
()
Women will be playing tonight at Spaceland | Picture via Women's Myspace
Our Pick: Chad VanGaalen, Women, The Boat People @ Spaceland
Tonight Minneapolis-bred multi-instrumentalist Prince (LAist Review) will be performing not one, not two, but three shows to sold-out crowds across LA. Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello is poised to perform under his alias the Nightwatchman at the Henry Fonda Music Box. And, lastly, French-American singer Madeleine Peyroux will be gracing Club Nokia in Downtown—that is, of course, before one of the numerous Prince shows. But we strongly suggest heading over to Spaceland to catch Canadian singer-songwriter Chad Vangaalen. Calgary's own indie rockers Women are slated to kick off the show.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
