Before digging into this week's shows, and since more than a few of you might care, Gothamist should point out that Franz Ferdinand tickets go on sale tomorrow at noon. The show is on September 9th at the Roseland Ballroom, which is universally regarded to be one of the worst music venues on the planet. But if anybody could make a trip to that craphole worthwhile, it's Franz Ferdinand. Yes, believe the hype. Those guys put on a great show. Don't dawdle. Their last few NYC shows sold out.

- Are Asian girl musicians the next big thing for music, the way, as Gizmodo's Peter Rojas pointed out, white female bassists were de rigeur for a while? Example, keyboardist Ann Do of The Tyde. It's either Ann Do's Rapunzel/Cousin Itt like hair or the Asianness that might just be something.

The hot music ticket this weekend might just be the Pernice Brothers with The Tyde at Mercury Lounge tonight and tomorrow, and that's because both bands are actually really good. The Pernice Brothers's new album, Yours, Mine & Ours, is lovely and lyrical (listen) while The Tyde's, Twice, is totally joyful pop (listen).

It's settled: Gothamist is seeing The Tyde and The Pernice Brothers at Mercury Lounge on July 26. Got The Pernice Brothers' Yours, Mine & Ours and it's been in heavy rotation.
