So, tonight is pretty crazy in NYC. Here’s what’s going on:

Duffy at the Hiro Ballroom at 9pm.

Ash, Nightmare of You, and Levy at the Williamsburg Music Hall.

The Vines at Bowery Ballroom.

The Wombats at Annex.

Cut Copy, Holy Ghost, El Guincho, The Fashion at Mercury Lounge
AND Cut Copy afterparty at The Randolph (349 Broome Street). RSVP Here.

I’m going to the Duffy show and then jumping on the L and heading to see Nightmare of You and Ash!

Yay St. Patrick’s Day
