Idlewild - Smith's Olde Bar - Wednesday September
14th Scottish rockers Idlewild
are touring the US in support of their new CD Warnings and
Promises. Thanks in part to catchy, harder pop songs and Roddy
Womble's unique vocals, the band has built a loyal following over here.
They'll be rocking Smith's Olde Bar on Wednesday with Inara George
opening up, who also sings live with the band. The
Baxter - Tara Cinema 4 - Thursday
September 15th
IFC Films, Creative Loafing, Atlanta Music
Guide, and 99X present the special advance screening of The
Baxter - a romantic comedy for anyone who's ever been dumped. The
Baxter is "reminiscent of classic American romantic comedies from
the 1940s where the nice guys finish first for once." The screening
will take place at United Artists' Tara 4 Cinema on Cheshire Bridge
Road (404.634.6288) this Thursday September 15th at 7:30pm. The movie stars
Michael Showalter, Paul Rudd, Michael Ian Black, Michelle Williams (of
Dawson's Creek fame), and more. If you want to attend the screening, just
email us at info@atlantamusicguide.com,
and we'll hook you up with a pass that's good for 2 people. The first 5
people will also receive a copy of The Baxter Soundtrack. Please
arrive early as the number of tickets distributed exceeds seating capacity. www.thebaxtermovie.com
