Last week, I predicted a mob at the Cavern when Chicago’s Fruit Bats played the small venue, but the crowd wound up being small and quaint, and singer Eric Johnson jokingly scolded me–onstage, no less–for publicizing the show as something too difficult to get into. My bad. So here, only a week later, the Cavern has fetched an even bigger name in San Francisco’s Devendra Banhart, who is currently supporting the subtly sex-crazed Cripple Crow, his most ambitious LP yet. Expect small and quaint from the mostly acoustic songwriter’s live show, but don’t expect normal.
