Chaos in Tejas for Pussies Like Me

I've never been that person who listens to Metal music. A lot of my friends who might not listen to Metal right now had a period in their life in which they were metal. I did not. I was never even into pop-metal. So, I can't pretend to be a great resource for you when it comes to Chaos in Tejas. However, I can be a great resource for pussies like me when it comes to those Chaos in Tejas shows with cross-over indie-appeal.

Starting tomorrow night with DIIV and Deep Time at the Mohawk. It's a Chaos in Tejas show, so if you have a 4 Day Pass you already paid your way into this and many other shows. But you can also just buy a ticket to this Thursday evening show for $10 if you act fast.

Friday night is a bit trickier for me. If we're on a budget and we're only buying our way into one space, it has to be Red 7 Outside and that's mostly because Parquet Courts is the truth. They go on at Midnight and they are certainly worth a $12 ticket and your time Friday night.

Incidentally, you can also catch Parquet Courts for free inside my favorite record shop, End of an Ear. They start at 2pm to be followed by Milk Music at 3pm.

Saturday night I'd either go with Andy Stott at Holy Mountain or head over to Cheer-Up Charlies for Merchandise with The Men. The Cheer-Up Charlies show is definitely more in the spirit of chaos but... Andy Stott.

Sunday night you should really be going to be bed because you have things to do on Monday morning but let's get real. The Field is performing at The North Door for $10 with Orthy opening.
