CRITIC’S PICK
Kevn Kinney with Lenny Kaye and Peter Buck — After two recent sold-out shows at Eddie’s Attic, guitarists Kevn Kinney (Drivin N Cryin) and Peter Buck (R.E.M. — as if you didn’t know) return to the Attic joined by a third guitarist, the inimitable Lenny Kaye (Link Cromwell, Patti Smith Group). Kinney and Kaye have been friends about as long as Kinney and Buck; together the three should put on quite a show, highlighting each other’s musical strengths while displaying more than a bit of mutual admiration for each other. If the Kinney/Buck shows were not to be missed, this show is not to be missed not to be missed! — Tony Paris
