All right, indie kids. You can wear your heart on your sleeve, but leave the bulky messenger bags at home tonight if you plan on hitting the Iron and Wine in-store at Aquarius tonight. The beloved softy songwriter Sam Beam will be extra acoustic tonight at 6 p.m. when the Mission record store delivers him to a crowd that will likely bump the summertime temperatures up inside the cozy retail space. Show up early if you go, though, as Aquarius warns, "Once the store is full, we won't be letting anyone else in. At all. No exceptions." (Of course, you can avoid the crush by dropping $25 for his show tomorrow night at Cafe du Nord).
