Abe Vigoda Is Alive

Even though Abe Vigoda is not dead, the Barney Miller (and Godfather) actor, who was immortalized in the Beastie Boys' "Posse In Effect," will not be at the First Unitarian Church tonight. However, his namesake band, Abe Vigoda, will. The Los Angeles quartet on the FU bill with headliners No Age (with whom they share a home base in the L.A. club The Smell), specialize in stirring up angular Minutemen-influenced SoCal punk with Caribbean stylings. Here's "All Day and All Night," from Skeletons.
