We Had Some Good Times
To LAist, Thursday seems to be an eclectic hodgepodge of music and art. Not to say that any of it is bad, but there is a little something for most everyone going on tonight in and around the city.
MOCA's Public + Artist program brings artist William Basinski to MOCA at California Plaza at 6:30 PM. Basinski primarily composes experimental sound pieces using found sound and tape loops, so be prepared for an ear-bending evening.
Mellowdrone appears at The Troubadour with Abandoned Pools, The Joy Circuit and Secretary Bird. Doors open at 8:00 PM and tickets are $12.00 at the door.
Devendra Banhart will be performing songs from his album Rejoicing In The Hands free tonight at Amoeba Music. The show begins at 7:00 PM; LAist recommends showing up early, as this show will probably draw quite the crowd.
The Knitting Factory main lounge features Gogogo Airheart, Red Light Sting, Gerling, From Monument to Masses, The Leg and Pants Dans Theatre beginning at 7:30 PM. Admission is $8.00.
