And this would be the reason I’m in Baton Rouge. Man Man brings their Avant Garde klezmer rock amalgamation to the red stick tonight and I finally get to see them. I’m quite excited.
If you’re in the area, or can make it to the area, this is definitely something to see. As you can […]

Although we’re a music blog, I feel it pertinent to occasionallly delve into the world of comedy. Todd Barry will perform tonight in NOLA as part of his “Cities I’ve Never Performed in Tour.” I very much wish I could catch this show, but I’m in Baton Rouge.
Barry is something of an alt-comic whose subject […]

Tomorrow night, an epic battle of music is going to occur in Seattle. There will be no words because all of the bands have decided that words are, in fact, for pussies. You know this to be true.
Temporary Residence Ltd. all-stars Mono and Eluvium are opening for Hydra Head asskickers Pelican at Seattle’s […]

This is where I’ll be this evening, and I suggest you do the same. The Mints are quite renowned amongst the indie kids. They’ve been compared to The Flaming Lips, though I think that is mostly because they hail from the same area in Oklahoma–that and singer Allen Vest sound vaugely like Wayne Coyne. Whatever […]

This show will be supported by Giant Drag and The Joggers. Pretty Girls Make Graves aren’t bad, but I’m a big fan of The Joggers, as I’ve mentioned a few times. With a Cape and a Cane was one of my favorite albums of last year. Doors open at 9PM — $10 cover.

Anyone other than me up for some punk minimalism? I hope so. This is going to be a great show. These guys played at Coachella, but they were scheduled at the same time as TOOL and I had to miss them. But I will be there tonight! Last year’s Bang Bang Rock & Roll is […]

I have every intention of being at this show. It has been scheduled for nearly a year and I’m still bitter for missing their performance with Thrill Kill Kult. They are the veritable gods of industrial music and they have a new album out. Rio Grande Blood doesn’t suck, but I’m getting sick of Bush […]

If you’re in the Seattle area on Friday, you should go check out this promo show that The Helio Sequence is doing Redefine Magazine It’s at The Paradox Theatre (which is now in Ballard if you didn’t know) and doors open at 8:00 pm. Cost: $10.
Supporting bands are Crystal Skulls and Silversun Pickups. […]

Haha, yea right. This is so sold out.

Live Band Hip-Hop at Lion’s Den
This is more of an event. Here is the lineup:

Square Egg 7:30pm
This would be a great date show and for […]

I know you might be swayed by other, more high profile shows, but I strongly encourage you to go to this tonight. Man Man is one of the most entertaining acts currently performing, fusing elements of klezmer, punk and rock, to gel something thoroughly enjoyable. We reviewed Six Demon Bag back in February. They’re […]
