Did you hear? It’s a new year, AND a new decade! YEAH! It’s time for new optimism, a new way to see the world, new socks and a side of FEAR topped with savory mushroom gravy! We’ve got one year left to live before the Mayan Wipeout, so you might as well steal all the DVD’s from Best Buy that you can carry while having unprotected relations with your relations (duh, the hot ones! Don’t be nasty!). Watch out for dying birds, shiftless fishes and break every bullshit New Years resolution you came up with by…living your sinful little lives!
Holy Govinda – A Weekend Full of Bliss
If you have the ability, like boy Krishna, to split yourself into many copies of you so that you may frolic in many places at once, this is the time and weekend to let forth those powers. There are so many high-quality, fun as sin happenings this weekend that you just might loose your dharma initiative trying to sort it out. That’s why we’re here for you, scene kats. We’re the gopis of the weekend herd. Ya heard?
The Weekend Where Only Eagles Dare
School is back! Reruns are over! Turkeys be buggin’ out! The Great Pumpkin be rising from his grave, yo! We are firmly in the month of September and all the promises of fall, and it shows by the ABUNDANCE, nay, the PLETHORA, even, of things to do for discriminating rockers and boppers this weekend! No time for hyperbole, lets dive into the madness, shall we? Lets.
When The Levee Breaks…
Come on down to my ark, baby. Come on down where we can play. Come on down, two by two. Giraffes in the front, party in the back, no baboons permitted on top deck. We board promptly at 8. No stragglers, cause the End Times don’t wait for NOBODY, don’t care WHO your band is opening for. 40 days and nights of champagne showers and a undercurrent that will guide you towards destination: Ouchies! Step lively…
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday!
Howdy, folks! You’ve got a couple of options for the next three days. SUNDAY! If you’re not staying home to watch Mad Men you should probably head over to Bruar Falls to check out The Above, The Anabolics, and The Mess Around. I don’t know the door time or the cost of this show. Do [...]

Mr Rhythm Returns!
André gets ready to do NYC in grand style this weekend“Legend” is a term that’s bandied about all too often in our 21st century garage punk circles. How many time have you seen show ads for some totally unknown 60′s garage band with one single under their belt being referred as “legendary” ? Or maybe [...]
Breathing room
LoveStruck, The Othermen and My Happy Gunconjure the spirit of Lux Interiorthrough human sacrifice (and music). All of the PR guys are gone. All of the label guys are gone. All of the hipster tourists are gone. All related signs of the Apocalypse have abated. And apparently most of the bands are taking a break. [...]
