'70s British prog-rockers Wishbone Ash are at the Hard Rock Cafe tonight (8 p.m., $20-$45), which is fantastic news for the people who really were hoping a King Crimson show would break out, but also had nothing going on tonight. Wiki notes "They were one of the first bands to use twin lead guitars," which, is ... it's certainly a line on the ol' resume. Along with "Has a drummer" and "Didn't abuse roadies all that much."
