Control @ Avalon presents Major Lazer with Them Jeans on September 9th. dragons, ballerinas, mohawks, dudes jumping off ladders (literally) onto gurlz that are booty bounc’n, and all to the impeccable spinning of Switch and Diplo. trust me children of Los Angeles, you do NOT want to miss this show. three thumbs up from j.satan. get your tickets here.
sadly, and i mean that in more emo ways than one, cftpa is calling it quits. he’s playing his final Los Angeles show at the Smell downtown (tix will only be available at the door the night of.) FINE! go ahead, Casiotone For The Painfully Alone! go ahead and leave!!… leave just like all the rest!!! : o (
just moved over by the Bowl… party at jesus satan’s! presale starts 10am tomorrow at Ticketmaster here with the password LCD, and KCRW is also having a presale for its members with their own password which is, shockingly, KCRW. (i’d use KCRW, it gives you the most indie street cred.) LCD is the best evah, you won’t be disappointed children of the city of angels…
The Thing? Casablanca? Beetlejuice? Blow Up? Midnight Cowboy?Cinespia, you’re after jesus satan’s A/V geek heart. this is the tenth season of goth-tastic screenings at the Hollywood Forever cemetery and they’re really pulling out all the stops this year with an absolute tremendous selection of classic films. check out the rest of the lineup here and join the email list because there’s more to come. it goes through to September, i think. then try to see one or two or all of them. you can bring in picnic-y stuff (i.e. booze) and last year FUCKING PAUL REUBENS showed up to introduce the screening of Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure, so you never know, there just might be a surprise or two. (although i’m pretty sure Bogey and Bergman ain’t showing for this one, unless it’s their ghosts. it is a graveyard in Hollywood, after all.)
to be honest, i don’t ever really sit around and jam to Ben Folds. he’s an excellent song writer, but i just am way too punk rawk to crank my stereo up while listening to a dude being all cornfed white boy ironic about things when i’m gettin’ ready to go out to thu cluuubb… nevertheless, Folds is an absolutely consummate performer, ever hilarious and ever entertaining (as you can see from the improv-ed Chatroulette vid below.) i saw him and William Shatner at the El Rey way back when and the night chock full of nerd awesome is still one of my favorite shows ever. the guy takes cheese and spins it into pure gold. Wed and Thurs he’s playing back to back shows at the Henry Fonda with brit cutie Kate Miller Heidke, and this is a three thumbs up show from j. satan. get your tickets for Wed and/or Thurs here.
