The 5 Best Shows in LA This Week: Real Estate + Kurt Vile + Modern Baseball + Sky Ferreira + Future Islands + more goodness

November 18, 2014
Written by Patrick McNamara

These 5 shows are the best this week.

So sayeth this music blob.

Forever and Ever.

Amen.

#1. Real Estate - The Belasco - Tuesday - November 18 - 2014 A.D.

It’s always an easy breezy good time when these guys play. Real Estate’s gentle jingle-jangle goodness will set your mood adrift on memory bliss, man. Let’s get chill.

NOTE: this show is part of Red Bull Sound Select 30 Days in LA Fest which appears to rule.

#2. Sky Ferreira + Cherry Glazerr - The Belasco + The Observatory - Thurs/Sat - November 20/22 - 2014 A.D.

I can now spell Sky Ferreira correctly on the very first try. That’s how long she’s been bringing the goodness and I really like her songs. It’s really too bad I’m not the one :( Cherry Glazerr opens. Click their name to read more positive Cherry Glazerr press according to this music blob.

#3. Future Islands - The Wiltern - Thursday - November 20 - 2014 A.D.

I mean…. just watch this. Best late night performance since Kaufman did Elvis.

#4. Kurt Vile - First Unitarian Church - Friday - November 21 - 2014 A.D.

There’s nothing disgusting about this guy. HA HA OH THAT’S JUST A REAL LAUGH RIOT WHOA MY BLOBNESS YOU’RE THE FIRST AND ONLY TO MASTER MUSIC WORDPLAY. Please note: Kurt Vile’s jingle-jangle will also set your mood adrift on memory bliss. He and Real Estate should tour together. And I should mind my own business.

#5. Modern Baseball et al. - The Roxy - Saturday - November 22 - 2014 A.D.

This band is stacked with good pop punk bands (POP PUNK ISN’T A DIRTY WORD YOU GUYS). Not only headliner Modern Baseball will be bringing the goodness. You also get Knuckle Puck (click that) + Crying (click that) + Somos (click that). Did you know Somos probably put out my favorite album of 2014? Would you like to hear it? Say nothing if you’d like to hear it. OK. That’s a deal.
