One of my favorite bands -- The Kills -- are finally getting the exposure they've long deserved, and will perform at Palais de Tokyo on 07.09.08 @ 8pm.

There's only one catch: it's already SOLD OUT!!! Maybe if you go and beg, they'll let you in, but I have a feeling it might be a waste of time.

What you should do instead: try to get tickets to Stage Of The Art #4 , which will be held London @ the ICA on 07.11.08. The lineup: These New Puritans (one of Hedi Slimane's pet bands), Nelson, and Zombie Zombie.

Don't forget to checkout Stage Of The Art, the people who put this together. They marry museums and music, which is the perfect match.

"Stage of the Art is specialized in curating and organizing musical exchanges between international art centres, offering a new way to experience live music in conjunction with the contemporary art scene. Museums from various world capitals become the stages of live concerts in a musical foreign exchange programme."

Killer project. Checkout a list of performances thus far, images and videos from the shows, and join their mailing list to keep up on what they're up to next.
