Oakland indie pop band The Heavenly States just announced some good news: they'll be opening for Spoon on the Austin band's three-night run at the Fillmore September 22, 23 and 24th. Good news for the States, the band previously most famous for being the first rock act to play Libya after that country lifted a 30-year ban on the Devil's music. The Fillmore crowd won't be the same thing as playing that British consulate's basement in Libya, but since these shows are guaranteed to sell out, it should help the four-piece beyond the fervent ex-pat community overseas. Not that America has ignored them -- Rolling Stone recently gave their latest record, Delayer, high praise. -- Jennifer Maerz
