To Do List: Saturday, May 16, 2009

Recommended Show:
SATURDAY, MAY 16, 2009
DAN DEACON, FUTURE ISLANDS, & TEETH MOUNTAIN
@ BOWERY BALLROOM
6 Delancey Street
New York, NY 10002
$12, 8PM or 12AM (two shows)

I wouldn't normally recommend the same show two nights in a row, but Dan Deacon and his ensemble blew me away last night. Though there are two shows at the Bowery Ballroom from Dan Deacon tonight (at 8 and again at midnight), both may already be sold out. There are fortunately plenty of alternatives, and many of them are listed after the jump.
