Deacon

After being so disappointed by the circumstances surrounding Dan Deacon's performance at Pitchfork, I was excited to see he was coming to Chicago again to play at the AV-Aerie (formerly known as the Open End Gallery) . . . until I realized it was the same night as the Hideout Block Party (September 8), which I've already bought tickets to. Luckily for me, they've added Deacon to the lineup! Not sure if that means he's doing both or if he's been officially moved to the block party, but either way, here's his chance to redeem himself. As long as he plays ON THE STAGE this time around (or I get close enough to enjoy it for myself).
