Just so we don't completely drop the baton I wanted to alert our listeners about some great indie acts playing Iowa in the next month or so. They are as follows:

April 1st (Thursday) Headlights and David Bazan (frontman for Pedro The Lion) at The Mill, Iowa City

April 9th (Friday) The Morning Benders at The Vaudeville Mews, Des Moines

April 10th (Saturday) The Morning Benders at The Maintenance Shop, Ames

April 21st (Wednesday) Phantogram and The Antlers at The Blue Moose Taphouse, Iowa City

May 1st (Saturday) Ra Ra Riot and Free Energy at Maquoketa, IA, Codfish Hollow Barn, 3437 288th Ave (Daytrotter Barn Series)

We've already made plans to go to at least two of these shows (and hopefully more). There's nothing better than great music in an intimate venue. Enjoy!
