You can see Audioslave for free--I think it's on Wednesday--at Hollywood and Highland for the taping of the Jimmy Kimmel show. But it's probably gonna be only 4 songs.
That Orb show my favorite show ever, but the mix of modern sound with an antique setting was just magic.
I go to special trips to Amoeba all the time - it's probably like going to church for me but i'm lucky as i always have a bunch of promo CDs and DVDs to sell to get credits. So then I can burn a $100 credit in 2h and I don't have to feel bad about it.
I must admit I'm in the Indie 103.1 camp, so I'll skip Kroq's Weenie Roast.
Did you see Front 242 at the Galaxy a few years ago? they looked so cheesy with their dyed blond hair.
kasabian are great though, I've seen them a couple of times.
