Just wanted to drum up some support/make getting into the concert impossible for the Lily Allen show tomorrow night at Popscene in SF. A blogger favorite for months, she combines the best bits of dub, reggae, ska, and a lot of sass in general. Even if you are the most jaded scenster this girl will make you move your feet. Give it a try. Her approach to lyrics are very direct, descriptive, and to the point. You might even want to draw a comparison to the lyrical stylings of the Streets. You can only listen to people singing "everyman" lyrics so often...
Popscene, for those unfamiliar with how they do things, does not sell advance tickets for shows like this. Therefore you have to get your ass there early and get in line! They always do this with big shows...one of the first times Bloc Party came across the pond is was impossible to get in. Better get there early...show "starts" at 9pm. Did I also mention this is only one of 5 stops Lily is making/made in North America?
