good morning world! the fluorescent office lights say hello! (kiddie grind core)
TONIGHT: Jookabox enjoys some delicious pastries at the Cake Shop in New York
man, i want some cake! tonight Asthmatic Kitty Records indentured servants Jookabox are playing the Cake Shop in NY. the show is cheap as fuck at only $7, but mostly i’m posting about it because i really, REALLY miss Halloween, and this rad video is very Halloween-esque (that’s a fancy, big time-y way of saying “like”), and you all know how much i like to relive my youth (aka stay stuck in the past). you can’t get tickets in advance, which is the weirdest thing ever in the digital age, and that earns this show jesus satan’s hipster swine gold seal of disapproval.
TONIGHT: The Jesus Lizard are sacrilicious at the Henry Fonda
Jesus Lizard – Panic In Cicero
old-school punk bands from Chicago equals awesome. the unstoppable force of Jesus Lizard singer David Yow were legendary in my hometown, ao don’t waste this chance to see them since they broke up a while ago because they were old and not making any money until that Touch and Go anniversary show got ‘em back together but who knows for how long? hitting the Henry Fonda tonight.
TONIGHT: Passion Pit felt the love so they’re returning with a show at the Henry Fonda
Passion Pits – Sleepyhead
Passion Pit sold out a grip of shows here in Los Angeles a while back, so they’re going to grace us with their presence once more with a show tonight at the Henry Fonda. i like them, actually. everyone does. they’re just soooooooo popular. big fcuking whoop, Passion Pit. oooh, so everyone’s your friend? so everyone likes you? well you’ll get yours, Passion Pit. i didn’t want to be your friend, anyway.
TONIGHT: the Fever Ray is breaking at the Henry Fonda
When I Grow Up (Version by Lissvik)
brother and sister team Olof Dreijer and Karin Elisabeth Dreijer Andersson aka The Knife is hands down amazingness, though i am utterly shocked to hear them penetrating the mainstream so much recently since they’re also such incredible weirdos (which is a good thing…) not sure if they’ve been having some sibling rivalry or what, but there has been a lot of speculation about a breakup what with no new album in forever. Andersson has also come out with her own Fever Ray side project, which is pretty much The Knife sans Olof (even though he contributes to the album). ironically, Fever Ray is blowing up all on their own, and she’s playing the Henry Fonda tonight. it’s not sold out as of right now, so you can still get tickets here, which you should, because this show gets a three thumbs up recommendation from j. satan.

CANCELLED: The Charlatans UK miss the days of britpop at the Henry Fonda
Charlatans UK – Nine Acre Dust (Chemical Brothers Remix)
yeah i kind of remember these guys kind of. surprisingly The Charlatans UK never broke up, and they were touring the US for probably the first time in a really long time probably like since the nineties or something i don’t know i’m too tired to look it up why don’t you do it for once? but anyways it doesn’t matter because one of them had to get surgery for being old or something, and they’ve cancelled their US tour. sorry Brit Pop fans, but i’m sure you’re used to disappointment anyway. disappointment, after all, is all your bands sing about!
TONIGHT: Bat For Lashes gives us a second chance at the Henry Fonda
Bat For Lashes is playing tonight at the Henry Fonda to make up for her sold out show a couple months ago at the El Rey. “security” wouldn’t let me in since i didn’t have a “ticket”, and the “police” didn’t understand that i’m not “stalking”, either, i just needed to “talk” to her. all said and done it was a terrible night and i’d like to put it behind me. so this time i bought a ticket and i think she’ll be really happy to see me there. can’t wait to see the look on her face!
