Ah, New York in the summer — so much to do, and so little time to do it. For instance, I’d really been looking foward to catching a free show by Bebel Gilberto at Summerstage, but then my friend Josh calls to remind me that Brave Combo is playing at the Bottom Line that same night. So as much as I love Brazilian grooviness and free shows (and I’m already mad that I missed the Basement Jaxx show and the Propellerheads/Asian Dub Foundation show at Summerstage), I certainly can’t pass up one of the rare opportunities to see my favorite polka/latin band on one of their rare visits from Denton, Texas. Especially not when there’s actually someone else around now who can appreciate them with me.
