Silver Jews
Fri, 7pm, ABC, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, £15, 0870 4000 818
A seminal alt-rock troupe that's seen cameos from many of the scene's luminaries - including Pavement's Stephen Malkmus, Lambchop's Tony Crow and Will Oldham - Silver Jews have been guided by David Berman, pictured, for going on 18 years। Only starting to tour in the last few years, this is a rare chance to catch the band live and revel in the sardonic glory of their singer's lackadaisical lyricism, soon to be given another airing in the good old recorded form through next month's release of their sixth album Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea.
