As they ready their new EP, Chet and the Big Bend have a show tonight (7/16) in Squirrel Hill at PD's Pub. They also have been added to tomorrow's (7/17) bill at The Brillobox with my man Justin Andrew and Paul Luc. Chet was cool enough to participate in this week's edition of First/Last Fridays.

Favorite thoughts, experiences about Pittsburgh?
I can't say enough about Pittsburgh. It's this secret place -- surrounded by rivers and hills -- with no threat of hurricanes, volcanoes, water shortages or earthquakes (or oil spills... ). We don't even have any dangerous wild animals! Yet, somehow it's really cheap to live here. I don't know exactly why or how we're so often over-looked, but I hope it stays that way.

Thanks Chet. The Arcade Fire at The Rex? That's definitely one of those, "I was there when" shows.
