You have to expect the unexpected with Philadelphia's Man Man. The offbeat, experimental rockers, whose love of eclectic instruments informs their wild, unpredictable live shows, released their fourth album, Life Fantastic, earlier this year via ANTI-. The band is in the midst of a fall tour, playing Sacramento, CA tonight and wrapping up their road trip, appropriately, this Saturday, October 29, with the Hallowbaloo Festival in Honolulu. Not long ago Honus Honus, Pow Pow, Turkey Moth, Chang Wang and Jefferson — no, not their real names — dropped by The Alternate Side and delved into "Haute Tropique," "Pirhanas Club" and more. You can hear the session on TAS on 91.5 WNYE this Friday, October 28, at 11 a.m. or streaming on The Alternate Side.
