Hot Saturday tip: Darondo

By Michael Corcoran | Friday, March 14, 2008, 09:38 PM

Bernard Vasek owns the Musicmania record store that sells all that horrible “screwed and chopped” music, but he’s probably the biggest music fan I know. He knows who’s got it and he passed on a name of a can’t miss act: Darondo, playing at Club DeVille on Saturday at 10:45 p.m. “It’s like seeing James Brown,” Bernard said. Consider yourself tipped.

By the way, wasn’t Friday afternoon hot? It seemed so much like ACL Fest I wondered when Wilco was going on.
