The Stranger

(MUSIC) Seven years ago, Smoking Popes broke many a heart when they ceased being an active band, therefore no longer gracing the public with their fucking fantastic pop-rock songs. They've recently dusted themselves off, though, and after nearly a decade of silence, they played a live show in Chicago, recorded it, and released it in a CD/DVD called Smoking Popes at Metro. It's a great recording and all, but you can get the real deal tonight. (Crocodile, 2200 Second Ave, 441-5611. 8 pm, $12, all ages.) by Megan Seling
