Fillmore Philly balcony is clutch. I don't mind crowded floors, but I can't be showing up 30 minutes before the opening act and trying to keep my spot for 2-3 hours. Plus my wife is short so if she's gonna see we have to upgrade to a seat upstairs.

Wish I lucked into tix to War on Drugs at tiny Johnny Brenda's, that will be incredible

Want Modest Mouse tickets for Thursday? Premium table for two at Fillmore. Paid like $240 for each, would sell for less. Damn snowstorm preventing us from going - I’m so angry. 
 

Have listed for resell on live nation but can remove if still unsold

Going to Hell's Heroes at the White Oak Music Hall in Houston in late March.  I'm not familiar with the area - what's that part of N. Main St. like?  The 5-minute walk to the nearest hotel is a) perfectly safe, b) a death wish, or c) ok with a group of other metalheads?

Gonna see my girlfriend play this friday 1/6 with her Merle Haggard cover band, Gerle Haggard, at Mississippi Studios in Portland.  She's a violinist.

Here's a pic because rules.

Got tickets to see Budos Band 2/18 at Roseland Theater and White Denim 3/3 at Wonder Ballroom.

I hate it but they have the best booker in town so I go.

Oregon is fucking weird in that they separate those that drink from those that don't.  So, if you want a beer, you have to go upstairs.  The capacity upstairs is just over 300 people.  Usually the line to get upstairs wraps around the inside of the venue.  One out one in.  Plus, no bathroom up there so if you need to go you have to get back in line again. 

Who are you going to see?  Viagra Boys on 3/3?

Well, it's not Coachella, but tonight I'm headed to The Hole In The Wall for my daughter's band's EP release (Die Spitz).  If you go and spot a dad-looking dude, just ask "hey are you from the internet"?
Also, they were nominated for three Austin Music Awards, so please spam away if you feel so inclined (Best New Act, Best Punk Band, Best Music Residency):

Get them a vinyl release and I’ll buy a copy.

I love Die Spitz! I saw them b/c there is a connection with the Hickoids and I know them very well. Die Spitz is just fantastic, look like they are well on their way to being whatever they'd like to be, and you should be damned proud!

Thanks!  They played with The Hickoids at SXSW last year.  Other than that, I'm not sure if they've done much together.  I am nothing more than a super-fan, they sure don't need my help.  I wish we could kill off the media's obsession with calling them a "girl band", but what are you gonna do?

I keep seeing more and more about them and maybe keep seeing about their music through some of the IG accounts I follow for various music locales.  Very cool, jimmyjazz.

 

That Liberty Lunch ad... Pop Will Eat Itself.  That would have been awesome!

HA!  Die Spits is one of the bands I have had on my radar but haven's seen yet.  Girl Punk band that fits into my old Club Foot days music profile.  Heck at first I just liked the name.  It's not my wife's cup of tea, so I may shoot you a PM and see if you are at the gig I try to go to.

Starting to get into my Spring music push.  Finally saw Carolyn Wonderland and Shelly King at an early Tuesday continental club show.  They seem to have had a monthly on and then off residency there. Anyhow they were great together, not only killer music but a good show. Highly recommended, and at a 6:30 slot it's what I call "geezer hour!" Also hooked up with my "captain Kurt" from my old club foot and soccer days and saw Love and Chaos for an early 6:00 show at Saxon. AJ Vallejo and his wife? in a band that leans a bit more into the country side but still ripped.  Then we walked down to High Ball as saw "The Saddle Sores" and some folks enjoying dancing to them.  I just liked the name but the band was good even though country is not my preferred genre.

The big show for me was Alejandro Escovedo and the Rant Band at Continental last night.  It was fucking great.  They played the Paramount with a tribute to Mott the Hoople, playing the Album Mott from start to finish.  Since I loved Mott the Hoople and love Alejandro it was a nice mix of songs and I always enjoy the Continental.  Jeff Beck's recent passing reminded me of how old Alejandro is getting and how much I missed his SXSW closeout shows every year on Sundays.  I'm gonna cry when that fucker goes.

Go out and see a band in a small venue!  Support the young bands! Nothing better than seeing a young up and comer in a club, when in a few years later they are playing arenas...

@horn4life that Viagra Boys video is awesome.  Why have I never heard of them?  It sounds like what you'd get if Ray Wylie Hubbard and Alejandro Escovedo dropped acid and tried to start a stoner-punk band with homoerotic undertones.

The new guy transplant that DJ's on Sun Radio played this tune and I fell in love with it.  It's sort of my personal party anthem now, (without the IV drug use!).  And yeah the video was not at all what I expected, something DIFFERENT!

Saw the Viagra Boys last year I think.  Meh, and I really liked their music.  Haven't listened to them since.  They're very small roomish--if you get a chance.  Think they're playing bigger places now. 

Looking forward to seeing Titus Andronicus.

Just bought tickets to Iron and Wine at at joes church in Galveston.  It’s an awesome venue.  Built in 1859, it’s the oldest German Catholic Church in texas and amazing place to watch music. 

 

super excited
