FKA Twigs's snaky minimalist R&B may not be something entirely new under the sun, but it's new enough.  She's one of the best examples of "less is more" in all of contemporary pop.  You cannot take your eyes and ears off her.  Sure these shows are sold out, but things happen.  (Twigs will also be performing at Afropunk Brooklyn late this Summer.) (How great is that festival going to be this year?)

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Ugh, eating around the Armory.  I'm going to send you to Jean-Georges Vongerichten's recently refurbished JoJo -- especially because on Sunday nights they have tarte flambée and baekeoffe specials from Vongerichten's native Alsace.
