Shows Baby.

First post in a while... most will probably not read this. However I feel the distinct need to invite you all to some shows that I had a hand in organizing.

This Sunday:

The Castanets
Wooden Wand and the Vanishing Voice
I Heart Lung

July 17th, the Bug Jar, (8-11PM) 6$/8$

This is one that I am terribly exited about, because the Castanets are a very good, and strange group, mainly comprised of one guy creating all sorts of strange sounds while remaining solidly within the avant-country/dark-folk vein. The other two bands sound great too. I'm only famliar with I Heart Lung, which is a drone/free jazz sort of guitar drum duo that should be great. So come on out and see a show with me everybody. Its going to be one of those shows that you'll thank yourself for going later.

Also, I have managed to organize a show with Cameron, (the guy who DJ'd our show at matt's basement) at the A/V Space, that will feature the mighty Bizzart. If you are unfamiliar with Bizzart, you should know he is a deconstructionalist hip hop artist who pushed the label for avant guard hip hop with his full length Ear Drung a year or so ago. He is the man. You can listen to some of his stuff at www.soundsareactive.com. He has worked with soul-junk a number of times, and his sound is similar to their noise-hop romps.

Anyways, the show is happening on the 16th of August, at the A/V Space. it will feature Dummy Destroy (Cameron) Bizzart, and Gaybot. Its going to be nuts. Oh and my band is going to open Lord willin'.

You can ooh and ah about it here.

I'm not sure that you fully comprehend the situation here. This isn't just any show, this is the mighty bizzart.

I say this all w/ a smile and a chuckle, but I ain't kiddin.

Really, I'm just jealous of all you costal folks. The coolest thing (that I know of) that is coming my way is I Heart Lung in Nashville TN. After that I'm gonna have to travel to the ends of the earth for the next good show. Anyway, I know you'll make the right decision.
