I just found out that Os Mutantes is going to play the Fillmore in SF July 24th. Big *wow* don't you think? Some details - good article http://arts.guardian.co.uk/features/story/0,,1777371,00.html & from Pitchfork: ------------------------- Os Mutantes Reunion Coming to U.S. Kati Llewellyn reports: Last month, Brazilian psych-rock legends Os Mutantes announced their first performance since 1973. Pretty rad, especially since even Kurt Cobain was previously unable to bring these guys back together. (Unfortunately we mean "guys" literally here, as brothers Sergio and Arnaldo Baptista, and drummer Ronaldo "Dinho" Leme, are set to go on without original member Rita Lee.) As previously reported, Os Mutantes' first reunion show will take place in London in May, as part of the Barbican's "Tropicália: A Revolution in Brazilian Culture" festival. Pitchfork has just learned that the reunion has been extended to two more shows, in New York and Los Angeles this July. The L.A. show at the Hollywood Bowl also features the Flaming Lips and Thievery Corporation. How awesome is that?
