There's no place like home. There's no place like home. There's no place like home. At least that's what they say. More precisely, that's what our favorite pigtailed daughter with the magic shoes and soft spot for dudes with issues said. And indeed, it's good to be home if you're the Belles. The Lawrence duo just blew into town after spinning around the United Kingdom like so many Kansas twisters for more than five weeks, hitting London, Bristol, Glasgow, Dublin, Manchester and every Limey-on-the-Shire and Monty-on-the-Thames hamlet in between. Then the boys came soaring Stateside, reeking of fish and chips, just in time for a music showcase at one big mother of a musical showcase, the South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas. Whew. But it ain't no fun unless the homies get some, which is why the Belles return the conquering heroes at this homecoming show. Best catch the Belles while they're tolling for thee and before they start coming down from their wicked bender of a road trip.
