Fri, July 9, Method Echo

I don’t have a kid, but I have WiFi and HDTV, so I don’t get out that much, especially to the sprawl that is Orangevale. But perhaps I should, like this Friday: Sacramentans Method Echo, a five-piece rock-pop outfit with a heavy mainstream sound but with hints of industrial, headline a pretty polished bill. With Hero’s Last Mission, the Reel, Amberglance, Even the Atlantic and possibly more local bands I’ve never even heard of (lazy reporter). Or I could just wait till July 13, and catch Method Echo at Avalon. Decisions, decisions. 9426 Greenback Lane in Orangevale; www.methodecho.com.
