The Hold Steady

For the third year, the Hold Steady are holding court at Brooklyn Bowl for a four-night run, this time celebrating the 10-year anniversary of Stay Positive. Come the first night if you want to hear that in full. Otherwise expect the word-drunk, neo-classic-rockers to bring surprise guests and massive jams, with rareties and covers peppered throughout. It's been 4 years since the last Hold Steady album, but the crew has been releasing a steady trickly of singles. Get acquainted if you want to sing along (and there will be sing-alongs).
