The Gaslight Anthem @ Stubb’s (more by Sarah Frankie Linder)
Gaslight Anthem

Red Bull Sound Select is an ongoing series of monthly $3 shows in multiple cities around the country. Each show has a headliner and three local openers chosen by a curator. BrooklynVegan is one of the curators in NYC — maybe you came to our Foxygen show at Knitting Factory. Stay tuned for our next show which is happening in September.

The series is already bringing big shows for a small price but in July they’re going even bigger and even cheaper with 10 really big free shows in 10 cities all happening over the same weekend (7/26 & 7/27). Those shows include Erykah Badu in Dallas, Dandy Warhols in Austin, Metric in Chicago, and Irving Plaza in NYC on July 27 with The Gaslight Anthem, Dave Hause (of The Loved Ones), The Scandals, and Frances & the Foundation. Head to their page and click on the show of your choice to “request a ticket.” Good luck.

That NYC date comes right inbetween The Gaslight Anthem’s two big outdoor shows at Hudson River Park’s Pier 26. The first of those shows is being opened by the Bouncing Souls (7/26), and the second by The Hold Steady (7/28). Tickets to both shows are still available.

Meanwhile. look for the continuing series of RBSS shows each month in NYC, Austin, Chicago, LA and Nashville, with more cities coming soon. NYC’s next one is curated by East Village Radio and is taking place at Drom on June 25 with Bridget Kelly, Wavy Spice, and Chippy Nonstop. Like the other monthly RBSS shows, it’s $3 at the door.
