stephin freakin' merritt in frisco tomorrow afternoon
  
Yeah, it sounds strange to say it out loud, but Stephin Merritt will be performing as the Gothic Archies tomorrow at the Barnes n Noble in Frisco. Its located at 2601 Preston rd (Suite 1204), inside Stonebriar Mall or whatever. The performance will take place at 5pm, and you can call the Barnes N Noble at 972-668-2820 for more information. I don't have a lot more information than that, but no matter what happens, this is going to be the shit. And I don't have time for links, so just Google the shit you lazy bastards. The band's website calls the Gothic Archies "stephen's gothic bubblegum pop band," which sounds just about right. The whole thing is part of a reading tour with author Daniel Handler, who will be reading as "Lemony Snicket." It is likely that Merritt will be performing songs from a CD that he wrote as a soundtrack to Handler's books "A Series of Unfortunate Events."

fyi, Stephin Merritt is a big flaming asshole, for real. I interviewed him once. He took me to task for not having heard everything he had ever released ...

Dude has performed in Texas (threw a hissyfit and walked off the stage at Numbers in Houston). I'm glad the last Magnetic Fields album sucked so I don't feel so bad about not having driven to WTFhatchie or Fscko. lol internet!
