The Sailing/Fox Japan/Paego Paego-Tonight @ The Oregon Express

...while there are a number of quality shows out there for you tonight (we'll get to those in a minute), our pick for the night is to head over to The Oregon Express to catch a trio of fine young bands. Opening the night will be Paego Paego, back in action after several months of inactivity due to school schedules. We're excited to hear some of the new material the band has been working on for their debut release, as the band's chamber-style post-rock trip hit us pretty good back in the summer. In from West Virgnia is FOX Japan, who brings with them monster powerpop chourses a la Weezer or Superchunk. Headling the festivities will be The Sailing, who in recent appearances has proven to us here that they are one of the most compelling bands in Dayton at the moment. With near boundless musical ambition and the chops to deliver, these space/dream rockers have us piqued for their upcoming album to drop...

...we like to give you options, kids, and tonight you have plenty of other ones. Down in Centerville at Celebrity you've got the big punk show with legends, The Queers, or over at Aquarius you can catch local legends Luxury Pushers.
