The extremely coveted, extremely important, and extremely fascinating book Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground 1981-1991 celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. In tribute, Tiger Mountain Presents will be putting on a tribute show to the Michael Azerrad-penned book this Sunday, May 22nd at the Bowery Ballroom. Tickets were previously sold out but it appears as though some more have been released, so grab one while you still can. Below is the list of performers and the band they will be paying tribute to. It will be exciting to see these more contemporary acts take on some of my favorite bands ever. Special guests are to be expected…
