Checking in on my other favorite indie rock girl

Neko, you've finally jammed in some time for Ohio, and naturally, you chose to cash it in Sunday at Cleveland's Beachland Ballroom.

Naturally, I'll be there. As with all weekend Cleveland concerts, visits with Marjie and Andy (Drew, or whatever the hell he's calling himself today) are essential.
Why is that?

Number 1: They're among my last high school friends still on the radar.

Number 2: We trade concerts - bands occasionally choose Columbus over Cleveland, though not nearly as often as they opt for the opposite. Music is a good excuse to make a weekend out of it.

Number 3: Marje lives down the street from Rozzi's, the best beer store in Lakewood. It's always my first stop upon arrival.

Back back to Neko. She turned out her record a year ago, released a dated live record in the meantime, and still hasn't hit Columbus.

Apparently, she wants to make it tough for me to see her live.

Luckily, I'm that much tougher.
