Walls of Algiers: Narratives of the City August 23, 2009
Los Angeles, California 90049
The exhibition traces, for example, an itinerary of the Casbah and the European quarters through vintage postcards, and juxtaposes the long tradition of staged Orientalist representations of "indigenous" people with photojournalistic coverage from the Algerian War.

What are their shows like?
Mai
energetic, it's amazing that so much sound can come out of two guys. (i'm not talking about loudness, so much as a driving musical cohesiveness.) i saw them in 2004 and they impressed me so much i bought a cd -- though i don't usu. like lyric-less music.
kleinsound
to what extent is that sound pre-recorded? i mean, i'm going anyway, but i'm just curious
livemetal
Alot of live guitar work. From what I remember of a previous show, almost all the percussion was pre-recorded. However, I cannot emphasize enough how energetic the show was reguardless of that. They opened for Mouse on mars so they didn't have a full set, I can't wait to see this one.

Er, I am a bad Upcomer and put in the incorrect date for the Ratatat show. I've changed it; the show is on the 18th!
