I took Lindsay to Revenge of the Book Eaters last night, a benefit for Dave Eggers's 826 NYC. The Society is in rehearsal this afternoon, and I don't have time for a proper review, so you'll have to read (event co-sponsor, I should note) Stereogum's take instead. I'll just add that this was my first time seeing David Byrne perform live, and... damn. Attention indie rock bloggers/critics/tastemakers: the next time you decide to make lavish and generous comparisons between some up-and-coming band and the Talking Heads, you might want to make sure the frontperson can sing even a fraction as well as David Byrne.
EDIT: Brooklyn Vegan has more. So does Rolling Stone.
