With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, there’s really no better concert to take a sweetie to this weekend than Mates of State. On the flip side, there’s also no worse concert to attend if you’re lonely, single and bitter.

Their dual harmonies are catchy and pretty, but what seals their Valentine’s spirit is that Hammel and Gardner stare longingly at each other through their entire set. Depending on your mood, you’ll either swoon or gag, so bring a date. Or some Tums. (Aqueduct and Fishboy open.)
