It's been a breakthrough year for former Further Seems Forever frontman Chris
Carraba, whose acoustic-emo outfit Dashboard Confessional have with
"Screaming Infidelities" scored the biggest punk-unplugged hit since Green
Day's "Good Riddance." The group have an MTV Unplugged set in the can (a
little redundant, though?), and it'll be released as a CD/DVD double-disc
package on December 3 as a holdover follow-up to last year's The Places You
Have Come To Fear the Most (Vagrant). Carraba and crew bring chiseled good
looks, sincere semantics, and a workbook's worth of melodramatic melodies to
the Palladium (800-477-6849) in Worcester on Saturday and to the Webster
Theatre (860-525-5553) in Hartford on Monday. |
