Austinist Giveaway: the Rentals at Emo's

comedy.png

The Rentals were a mid-to-late-'90s (say that five times fast) indie pop project spearheaded by Matt Sharp, former bassist for Weezer. They were cute, they were fun, they had boy-girl harmonies and sharp synthesizer lines, they scored major radio play with "Friends of P" -- and then they broke up.

But, earlier this year, the Rentals got back together, and now they're touring before they head back in the studio to work on new stuff. We're hoping the "new material" is a little more "Please Let That Be You" than "Friends of P," but we'll have to wait and see. Anyhow, the aforementioned touring includes a stop at Emo's tomorrow; that's "Thursday" for those of you not so good with the days of the week thing.
