Pavement and Jenny And Johnny at Ogden Theatre
Pavement began promoting a 2010 reunion show and a subsequently announced tour an entire year before the initially scheduled show dates. It’d seem absurd if the once-obscure band hadn’t sat so well with a swelling number of listeners over the past decade: The raggedy, smart-assed guitar-rock of such albums as Slanted And Enchanted and Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain has aged as a reminder of sweeter times rather than of hip jackassery. With this fall’s preciously poppy I’m Having Fun Now, the prospects look good for Rilo Kiley’s Jenny Lewis and singer-songwriter Johnathan Rice sticking together as a couple. If they’re as sweet to each other as they sound on their songs, these two crazy kids might just stand a chance.
