Ronnie Day @ Knitting Factory Front Bar, 1/17Win a pair of tickets to Ronnie Day's show, a signed eight-by-ten photo, a copy of his new CD The Album, and a pre-show meet 'n' greet with day himself!
"Day's MySpace page is full of candid photographs, handwritten notes and charmingly straightforward explanations of his life story and his music. But this would all be for naught if Day'''s music didn'''t speak to some common experience shared by the teenagers attracted to the baby-blue eyes and surprisingly eloquent prose that populates his MySpace page. While yes, the autobiographical pop-rock songs on his new Militia Group release The Album sound a lot like Dashboard Confessional'''s, down to the quavering tenor, acoustic guitars and lighters-aloft anthemic choruses, they'''re sung by a charismatic young teen still licking the same emotional wounds as his audience is. Dashboard'''s Chris Carraba, who turns 32 this year, hasn'''t had that kind of authenticity for years."
