The Railbenders are playing a rare show tonight at Bender’s Tavern.  Hopefully you can make it down.  Here’s their release show for 2009’s self-titled CD, where they played the album in its entirety (sans “Gone Fishin”, saved for the ride home).

I didn’t actually see this show.  But based on the recording, These United States must have been one of the 2010 Underground Music Showcase’s Friday highlights.

Dates for the 2011 Underground Music Showcase have been announced!  Mark your calendars for July 21-24.  This also means it’s time for me to start getting busy with last year’s material.  This particular performance was one of the most memorable to me–a late night Nathan & Stephen reunion and the magnificent Mayan Theatre!
