The fallout from yesterday's cancellation of Somerset's SoundTown music fest continues, with two new shows booked in town from acts suddenly ejected by SoundTown:

**Dr. Dog is taking the open Friday night slot at First Ave, July 27. Tickets (a mere $15) are on sale immediately. The soulful Philadelphia-reared already filled the club this spring, but their latest album, "Be the Void," has yet to grow old with its insatiably catchy singles such as "That Old Black Hole" and "These Days." First Ave, by the way, has a bunch of fall shows going on sale this week, including Owl City on Oct. 4 (his first time at First Ave!), the Corin Tucker Band in the Entry on Sept. 13 (ex-Sleater-Kinney) and buzzing British songwriter Michael Kiwanuka at the Fine Line on Sept. 28.

**The Baseball Project will swing into the 400 Bar, also on Friday, July 27. The $15 tickets are also already on sale. The veteran all-star, all-baseball band's members all have a long history with the 400 Bar's Bill Sullivan. R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck still usually tours with the band, which is led by Steve Wynn (Dream Syndicate) and Scott McCaughey (Young Fresh Fellows, and R.E.M. tour member) and features Minneapolis' own Linda Pitmon (Zuzu's Petals) on drums. The 400 Bar's thickening calendar also recently added dates with Stereolab co-leader Laetitia Sadler (Sept. 30) and Mission of Burma (Sept. 27).

**Black Box Revelation will roar into the Triple Rock on Saturday, July 28. Tickets are $10 and on sale through First Ave's site. I can think of a couple great local openers for the Belgian stoner-rock duo (Bloodnstuff and/or Gay Witch Abortion), but none have been named yet. BBR themselves have been doing a lot of opening gigs of late, including recent local ones for Beady Eye and the Meat Puppets.

I've also heard that the agent for Texas stud Hayes Carll -- another SoundTown castoff -- has been shopping for a venue for one of those nights, but nothing has been confimed yet.
