TONIGHT: Sufjan Stevens or Bell X1?

It's always quite the dilemma when two superb shows are playing in your town on the same evening. Some might say that it's a good problem to have, but what is one to do???

Well, it does tend to make the decision really easy when one of the shows has been sold out pretty much since the day tickets went on sale. . .

But here you go:

Who: Sufjan Stevens
What: Serene acoustic beauty meets enthusiastic chamber pop
Where: The Beachland Ballroom
Why:
[Mp3] Sufjan Stevens - Casimir Pulaski Day (KCRW Morning Becomes Eclectic)
[Mp3] Sufjan Stevens - The 50 States Song (live in Denver)

vs.

Who: Bell X1
What: Talking Heads meet Snow Patrol (yeah, weird, but true)
Where: The Cambridge Room at The House of Blues
Why:
[Mp3] Bell X1 - The Great Defector
[Mp3] Bell X1 - Rocky Took a Lover

Enjoy!

Neither - Super Diamond - the world's greatest Neil Diamond cover band - is playing at the HOB.

Haha - well, next time Super Diamond comes through Cleveland, we'll be sure to catch them :)

Bell X1 because Wild Light is their opener, and a fantastic new band to see live. I saw this show in Cleveland, then again in Chicago on Friday. Awesome.

Julie - Thank you for the heads up about Wild Light. We actually ended up going to the Sufjan show rather than the Bell X1 show. So, the next time Wild Light and/or Bell X1 swings through Cleveland, the decision will be easy :)
