I find it hard to believe that Interpol isn't one of the 10 best things to do this weekend...I'm sure Tef Poe or Unwed Sailer will put on a better show...not!

This list is meant to highlight things that we haven't covered elsewhere -- things you might not have heard of to do. It's also a place to point out a lot of local shows/goings-on happening. It's meant to be a complement to all the other coverage we've done for the weekend of shows -- a companion to the blog interviews and the critic's picks/b-sides we've already published in the print edition.

In fact, in the intro of this piece, I say: "Go to these shows, then -- without fear of falling. And find some more ideas below." The link highlighted takes you to the page for all of our print content -- which Interpol is a part of. We have blogged about Interpol and written about the show. It's not a slight on them at all, or a commentary about the must-see nature of the show -- and it shouldn't be taken as such.

Why is Interpol tagged, but not mentioned?
