tonight
FUCKED UP . PISSED JEANS . VIVIAN GIRLS . @ MARKET HOTEL

I bet PJ won't go on til 11 huh

that was last night

hah

sending out emails at 8pm, that ToddP is a fuvkin genius

hey guys

given a choice to play or see a show, monkeytown or zebulon?

as in, I like the new Monkeytown location and it's a good place to play / see a show, but does anyone have a take on Zebulon

I like Zebulon. More of a bar/bistro with a small stage - nice sound - have seen some excellent jazz there. I've played at Monkeytown around the corner and that was fun - like playing in the middle of someone's all white living room.

whos going to see LINDSTROM next week

maybe all my Obamaniac homiez should go w/ me to this. :)

whos going to see LINDSTROM next week

i'd like to but for a Fixed @ Studio B type show his set is probably gonna be what, 12:30 to 2am? dunno if I'm up for it < / pussy >

I wish it was at Santos, that place is soooo much easier for me to get home from

also trying to decide if I wanna do ESG / Wilkes / Sal Principato at Le Poisson Rouge this saturday. flaked on Twitch / Kerri Chandler last sat., maybe this is a good makeup date. (is ESG worth seeing in 2009? anyone seen em?)

Monkeytown is a much more interesting place for a show because of the four-wall screens and the couches, but sound issues are more likely to ensue, so if you're prone to sound issues or especially picky you might prefer Zebulon.

I was gonna do ESG but ended up getting sick; gf has seen them many times and consider it a good time. I like Poisson Rouge as a club; it's a nice space.

I am going to see Bad Manners tonight. Yes. I know. It's ska, yes.

April 4, WFMU show at Bell House feat. Excepter:

http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2009/02/wfmu-curated-free-music-archive-party-4409-the-bell-house-mp3s.html

pissed jeans at union pool on friday
also reigning sound at southpaw

glass candy/nite jewel on saturday, u know u want to

is nite jewel la poisson rouge?

ya

just bought ticket

think it'll sell out?

dunno! I've never been to that venue, supposedly it's on the small side

I probably won't go until midnight or so, so I'd rather not take a chance

why is it so late on a weekend where i have to take a dam shuttle bus home

ride cutty's bike

im not going to stop complaining about this until mta lets me take the a train all the way to utica

i saw terry riley (it was boring) at lpr and can no longer think of it as anything other than a supper club venue. i can't imagine like dancing there or anything. this might be confused and embarrassing, but did the lpr used to be the village vanguard or something?, and the current village vanguard isn't really the village vanguard?

thats prob ok since nite jewel & glass candy arent really dance-y bands

they have a smoke machine

LPR was the Village Gate. (I saw a Fats Waller revue and They Might Be Giants there.)

it was also the dance club "Life" for a bit late 90s

Pissed Jeans @ Market Hotel on Friday

Quintron & Miss Pussycat, Psychedelic Horseshit, Drink Up Buttercup

I kinda wanted to see mahjonng there next weekend but then i found out they're opening for calvin johnson and ian svenonius :/

don't forget the final usaisamonster show saturday @ market hotel

they are going out at the top of their game, last album was incredible

Branford and James Carter's groups stomp over any rock shows this week

flippity flop i wanted to go to nyc last week, and it was a last minute decision. BUT AARgh they've changed all the visa arrangements since i last which meant applying for an electronic visa 3 days prior to travel.

oh well. will most likely be there for xmas this year tho.

times new viking w/ thomas jefferson slave apartments (!!) at bell house next sat. 6/13

saw tjsa once in the '90s and they rocked the fuckin house

blow it up, blow up the Bell House

hahaha
bombs away, blow it up before steve albini makes a speech

the show that I saw em at in st. louis attracted a random heckler who saw their flyer and thought they were pro-slavery

Three WFMU-curated nights at the Music Hall of W'burg, Oct 1 thru 3:

http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2009/08/wfmu-fest-at-music-hall-of-williamsburg-october-13-faust-pissed-jeans-teenage-jesus-and-more.html

cold cave are the worst music i've ever heard tbqf.

boredoms tonight, can't quite motivate

Reasons to be jealous of NYers part 999,998: Nov 5th - Fucked Up, with Andrew WK on keyboards and the Vivian Girls on backing vocals.

well, I've no interest in that MHofW Faust show, just the PJ one if I can find some money.

PJ tom'w night

three nights of WFMU Fest and that's the one u post?

yes, fuck nostalgia

gonna go see Home (9pm) and Times New Viking (later) at Mercury Lounge tonight. the Axemen are in between those two (don't know them).

Kiwi indie, reissues on Siltbreeze.

Don't sleep on Cave!

just don't see myself getting to the show at 8. Sorry Cave.

TNV @ Union Pool this wkend?

oh no, it's tom'w (w/ Mad Scene).

they were good this time

I don't suppose anyone wants to go see the Queers with the Leftovers on Dec 3? @ Southpaw.

I mean I realize I'm asking the wrong subset of my life but just thought I'd throw it out there.

was thinking of going to Reigning Sound at Southpaw on Fri. but since I went out last night I probably won't

btw Trip Maker I did catch three songs of Cave, they were cool

I had RS on my calendar but turns out I'm doing something else instead. Also, how many times do I rly need to see them at Southpaw? I think I'm up to 3.

Glad you liked it, Dave. They are my bros for life.
