after the horrible incident with the theft of their equipment, xiu xiu cancelled all shows prior to the berkeley show, and we were all very saddened, both by the despicable nature of the crime, and by the loss of being able to see a live performance. now, i just got an e-mail from the yahoo group containing dates, and friday's (4/25 @ Casa Del Pueblo) show in los angeles is listed as the first date. is this a mistake? did i make other plans that will be a bitch to get out of by mistake? is there really a chance to see xiu xiu live without driving to san francisco and back in a day?
oh, and if it is true, does anyone have ANY info on the event? there appear to be about 80 bands listed

That page also includes the address of the venue, times, other bands playing, etc. etc. Hope that helps! take care! |

dear anonymous help (and anonymous help returns, if you happen to be seperate people),
you are my new favorite person! well, for today at least, but i got a hug from colin meloy the other day, and he kicks ass, so that should tell you how much you kick ass. of course, my opinion at the moment is probably biased, since it appears that you have given me good news; i am unable to get out of my plans before 8ish, and i live about 40 minutes out of los angeles proper, let alone hollywood, so your annonymous declaration (and link) have made me believe that i will actually be able to see xiu xiu live, although i'll be rushed, and i'd like to catch a few opening acts, you know? anyways, i'll stop rambling, anonymous friend(s). thanks again!

No Prob with giving you the help! The reason I'm not a registered user is I haven't taken time yet but I should go ahead and do so shortly. hope everyone else in the Los Angeles area see's the posts and shows up for a good time!
I have heard it is going to be Jamie Stewart solo and not the full band. It is Jamie singing and playing guitar of Xiu Xiu songs. Last time I saw him play solo it was insanely beautiful and is not to be missed! Really great intimate performances of all the songs you love in neat guitar/vocal only versions.
