Bardo Pond Opening SOLD OUT Godspeed You! Black Emperor Show at Union Transfer Oct. 2

Yeah, there is a big sold-out show coming to town at Union Transfer tonight with Godspeed You! Black Emperor, especially since they just announced yesterday that their first album in a decade, ALLELUJAH! DON’T BEND! ASCEND!, will be officially released on October 16, but is already available on tour. While you’re rushing to grab your copy, make sure to get there early to catch the set of Philly’s favorite experimental drone-y psych rockers Bardo Pond. The hometown staple has been helping to keep things weird on our music scene for over 20 years now so “ya betta redneckognize!” It’s going to be a transcendental evening! Oh, where have all the acid dealers gone when you need them? Union Transfer, 1024 Spring Garden St., 8pm, $25 (SOLD OUT), All Ages (Photo by Chris Becker) – H.M. Kauffman
