Lenny Kaye (solo) * Nora O'Connor

If you're not at Gman Tavern tonight, you're seriously missing the gig of the decade. Lenny Kaye, the legendary six-string sorcerer who set the stage ablaze with Patti Smith, is stepping into his spotlight with the solo debut we've all been waiting for—"Goin' Local." This is your chance to see punk's living history strum his way through a setlist that promises to marry the grit of CBGB's heyday with fresh, untamed energy. And just when you thought it couldn't get any cooler, Nora O'Connor, indie's secret weapon and the voice behind the voices you love—think Neko Case and The Decemberists—will be opening, blessing us with her ethereal pipes and genre-defying prowess. Doors at 5:30 PM; don't be late unless you want to hear about it from everyone else tomorrow.
