DJ ?uestlove Opening for Little Dragon & Tycho at Union Transfer Oct. 18

?uestlove was recently added to tonight’s already fantabulous lineup at Union Transfer. Now, I shouldn’t have to really convince anyone who lives in Philly why you should come out this evening and give our fine froed friend a little local love. But I would like to take the opportunity to give some to Sweden’s Little Dragon. I did happen to catch ?uesto raving about them on Twitter when they debuted on Fallon so I checked them out, and they lived up to the hype. It was such a mesmerizing performance that it actually made me come early to The Roots Picnic to catch their set at 1:30pm, which is definitely a big deal when I need to stick around for nine or ten hours drinking seven dollar beers to see the final acts, Man Man and Nas. (BTW: Live Nation, I know that you probably don’t care, but pssst…press folks will definitely have nicer things to say about your events if you allow them re-entry. Just glad that I was able to sneak in my trusty little Jameson bottle to help pass the time. :o) San Francisco sound artist Tycho (a.k.a. Scott Hansen) should provide plenty of swirling soundscapes to help warm you up for this evening’s imported headliner. Union Transfer, 1024 Spring Garden St., 8pm, $15 -$17, All Ages – Q.D. Tran
