From last.fm:
The Wedding Present are an indie rock group formed in Leeds, England in 1984. They evolved from the ashes of The Lost Pandas. Their music has evolved from fast-paced indie rock in the vein of their most obvious influences The Fall, Buzzcocks and Gang of Four, to more varied forms. Throughout their career, they have been led by vocalist and guitarist David Gedge, the band's only constant member. The Lost Pandas fell apart in 1984 when guitarist Michael Duane (later of DUSTdevils) was sacked, and Panda's drummer Jaz Rigby followed in protest. Read more about The Wedding Present on Last.fm.

Jet Age
From Washington, District of Columbia
Only Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
The Jet Age was constituted from the ashes of the critically acclaimed hurricane lamps, of which both singer/songwriter/guitarist Eric Tischler and bass player Greg Bennett were members. After the lamps broke up, Tischler formed the Jet Age with drumming phenom Pete Nuwayser. The Jet Age made its debut opening for the Wedding Present, and Tischler and Nuwayser drafted Bennett in time to record the band's first album, Breahtless, in 2006.
