Last Exit
This year marks the last summer of Coney Island as we know it: the boardwalk land of freaks, carnies and rides like the Wonder Wheel and "Bump Your Ass Off." (The Cyclone is landmarked.) Which also makes this year's Siren Festival - the eighth annual - something of a last hurrah (though all indications are they'll be back next year, in some shape or form.) Fortunately, the Voice has put together a better lineup than we've seen the past few years, including These Are Powers, Times New Viking, and headliners Broken Social Scene and Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks. On stage now: Islands (Montreal).
