Not a bad live-music agenda for a Tuesday night. Especially since you don't even need to leave your house/car for the first one. Local young'uns the McKenzies, whose brisk power-pop touched off quite the commenting spree after their Secret Saturday Festival set a couple weeks back (then impressed Rocks Off quite a bit the next night at Boondocks), play at 9 p.m. live on KTRU's (91.7 FM) The Local Show. Skyline Network honcho adr precedes the group at 8 p.m., presumably to talk about his new "Old Farts" concert series at the Mink. (More on that one tomorrow.)

If psychedelic pop a la the Zombies or Sgt. Pepper's is more your thang, former Cotton Mather frontman Robert Harrison brings his new group Future Clouds & Radar down from Austin to play dreamweavers with neighbor and Conroe native Aimee Bobruk at McGonigel's Mucky Duck.

And there's always Umbrella Man at the Continental Club. Hard to go wrong there either. - Chris Gray
Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Houston with no paywalls.
