February 17th, 2010

Cold Cave Smith Westerns Best Coast AVI Buffalo glasshouse echoplex 2010 february los angeles pomona keith morris mario orduno circle jerks michael stock part time punks

a bunch of j. satan’s fav newish bands are hitting sunny Los Angeles so yay for me! The Smith Westerns and Best Coast are opening for the stellar Cold Cave tonight and tomorrow at the Glasshouse in Pomona and at the Echoplex in Echo Park respectively. AVI Buffalo (meh… not so great live, though i do like their studio music) also opens tonight at the Glasshouse. both shows are all ages but whaddayagonnado? this is a three thumbs up show from jesus satan, the show this last December in Eagle Rock was painfully short, but well worth the drive nonetheless.

TONIGHT: 60 Watt Kid is electric (haha, get it?) at the Echo in Los Angeles

November 10th, 2009

hey! in the mood for Animal Collective but not willing to pay outrageous bigshot prices for traveling to wherever it is in the world that they are? great! have i got the show for you! tonight 60 Watt Kid plays the Echo with Best Coast and Gowns. they have plenty of good rapport about town for good live shows and stuff, and even a low-rent version of Animal Collective is still better than no Animal Collective.
here’s a video of their new single Ocsicnarf Nas from a recent performance at the Smell to give you a little taste. (i’m guessing they’re a little more exciting in person.) you can also check out the official video over at Stereogum who is aparently much cooler than us as it’s not yet available to stream from elsewhere. i thought we meant something to you, 60 Watt Kid.

TONIGHT through the 10th of October: ten years of dub… lab.

October 1st, 2009

Los Angeleno collective Dublab are celebrating ten years of booty shaking, indie films and other artistic pursuits with ten nights of events scheduled in October, starting tonight and continuing through to the tenth. there are performances from Jimmy Tamborello (aka Dntel of Postal Service fame), Daedelus and Dr. Strangeloop, and a ton of other local celebrity types. more information here. i’ll most likely see you at Part Time Punks at the Echo (1822 Sunset Blvd) Sunday and Give Up at Cinefamily Monday (611 North Fairfax). i saw Tamborello do a set at a Give Up-style anti-Valentine night at the Echo way back when and it was hilarious because everyone was acting all depressed and heartbroken and stuff. heartbreak makes me laugh. ha!….    ha…    heh….    : o (
