Not to be missed is Mark Burgess of The Chameleons, who will be performing on Tuesday evening at The Crocodile in Seattle. This is the first time that he has been to town since he last performed with his old band in an astonishing performance back in 2002. As if this is not enough, Burgess has been lined up with some of the best local Seattle groups as openers: C'est la Mort (hear them on our recent podcast) and Romance.

I was fortunate enough to catch a performance of his in San Francisco back in April, and believe me, the show did not disappoint. If this show follows suit, you can expect mostly Chameleons songs performed on acoustic guitar by Mark who will be accompanied by two additional musicians that come fairly close to recreating the inimitable Smithies/Fielding interplay on electric guitars.

The show is at 7:00 p.m. Plan on arriving on time to support the stellar opening bands as well.
