Liz Phair to Perform “Guyville” Live in NYC, Sparks to Perform Everything They’ve Ever Done in London

Russell and Ron Mael of Sparks 

The trend of trotting out seminal works in their entirety is working up a head of steam: according to Idolator, Sparks will be playing 21 dates in London in which the Mael brothers will play each of their albums in order, from 1971’s Halfnelson to the upcoming Exotic Creatures of the Deep.

Liz Phair 

And as she begins her mea culpa tour, Liz Phair will perform Exile in Guyville from start to finish June 25 at New York’s Hiro Ballroom. And that’s all well and good, but what we’re really wanting to know is whether she will finally and completely live up to all of the promise of Guyville when her new studio disc is completed this fall, and whether all the super-slick Lavignisms of her sellout period will completely subside with her ATO Records debut.   

Who would you like to see trot out their classic?

I would like to hear George Harrison do “All Things Must Pass.”

Hey, nice pic of Liz Phair. Looks like Chase needs a cold shower.

Hey kids — it’s family hour at Staticblog!

Well, Queensryche is performing “Operation: Mindcrime” in its entirety this summer in Pryor, Oklahoma, so I don’t see what else is needed.

I got to see Roger Waters do “Dark Side of the Moon” start to finish last year in Vegas, but I think my dream show would be the same lineup doing a run through of “Animals.”
