Sox Shuffle Continues
We know, the week just started. But it's never too early to look forward to the weekend, right? Maybe some lunchtime margaritas for Cinco de Mayo will cure your case of the Mondays, but for the rest of us, we're just working for the weekend. Consider us pleasantly surprised to find that tickets for M.I.A.'s Friday show at the Aragon Ballroom are still available via Ticketmaster. She may be tiny, but she packs a mighty wallop.
M.I.A., Friday May 9, 2008, 7:30 p.m., The Aragon Ballroom, $27.50 (plus the usual Ticketmaster fees)

she's hosting a show at debonair too.
Save your money. She's really not good live, and I can't even imagine her trying to hold the crowd at that big barn. That being said Holy Fuck is opening the show, and they'll likely make it all worthwhile.
@ E:
Holy Fuck is the only reason to go ... that being said, I'm a fan of run-by fruitings.
Parroting the "not good live" sentiment. I saw her open for LCD Soundsystem when she was on tour for her first record and couldn't stand her. Sounds like she hasn't gotten any better.
I thought she was pretty great at Lollapalooza last year. I imagine that if she can hold down an outdoor crowd, she can handle most venues.
