Your Friendly Fucking Show Reminder: Little Tybee/Adron/Happy @ 529 Tomorrow Night
Little Tybee, Adron, Happy?
Wednesday October 7th
529 in East Atlanta Village
529 Flat Shoals Ave., Atlanta, 30316
9 PM//21+//$5
Join 4th Ward Heroes Wednesday October 7th @ 529 Flat Shoals Ave., East Atlanta Village for a special show with some truly amazing local musicians.
Little Tybee
Catch them while you can, they will be on tour through the end of the month. Hopefully, you can get a copy of "Building a Bomb" while you're there. It is fantastic. I have "Fallen Bird" playing right now.
Adron
If the recession has you feeling down or your lover just left you for the East Siberian Sea, you need to come by just to catch a glimpse of Atlanta's own beloved Adron. What can I say? She is a force of nature that will leave your soul soothed and your step a little lighter. We are all grateful to have her home and should probably bring her some presents or at least some colorful percussion instruments to add to what I have no doubt will be as equally fanciful as it is a tour de force of a show.
Happy?
What is Happy? You will have to come by to find out! This is their first show at 529, so let's give them each a hug and welcome them to 529.
All I can say is that if this show does not leave you feeling happy, nothing will my friend. Except maybe bourbon. Bourbon helps. Oooh, or rainbows. Rainbows work too. Oh, and Jess talking about baked goods. That works too.

The Super Black Crystal Death Vampire Wolf Fuck Wants You To Do My Dirty Work
So I want to open up this blog for some regular contributors...cause I'm fuckin' lazy. Anyone who wants to do a show review or talk about anything going on then please feel free to contact me. Submit a couple of ideas and we'll see where it goes. No, its not paid..no you don't get anything for free...unless, of course, I start getting things for free, at which point I'll gladly share. Why should you help me rather than start your own blog, which seriously takes 5 minutes...because mine will always have a better name than yours.
But seriously, let me know

Holy Fucking Shit!!! Wire @ The Variety Playhouse 10/12
Yayyyyyyy...one more time...YAYYYYYYY. 70s punk legends are going to be playing the Variety Playhouse on October 12, I will absolutely be attending this show. Their new album Object 47 is fucking awesome and in true Wire fashion, they will likely play all of it and a few choice classics...though probably no ex-lion tamer, oh well.
Get Yo Fey On! The Magnetic Fields Play The Woodruff Arts Center, Violin Players Slit Their Wrists
Oh boy, are you ready for a night of moping and barely audible music performed by one of the biggest pricks ever? I'm not, but I know many of you absolutely love The Magnetic Fields, and I'll admit, I kinda liked their last record for a few spins. Still, I think 69 Love Songs is one of the most overrated records of all time...

The Fucking Cocksucker Story Time Theater, The Kid Stays In The Picture (Part 2)
Ok kids, get close. Uncle Bobby is going to continue his stories of shady business deals, beautiful women, motion picture magic, and how sometimes you gotta go with your instinct and tell everyone to fuck off just because you've got a hunch...and if you don't act on it...you might as well just give up...and boy does it feel sweet to be right. Who loves ya?

Comedians Of Comedy (Thank You, Fuck You, And R.I.P.)
Why is this often brilliant group disbanding? One can only speculate, here are my ideas:
A) Maria Bamford was sick of having the other guys try to do blow off of her, and no one wants to do blow off hairy fat men.
B) Brian Posehn is currently involved in a secret lawsuit. When you play his comedy album backwards, he secretly tells you that Jesus is the answer to everything, some kid put "Jesus" as every answer on his math test, and failed...He is now suing Brian, and will likely win
C) They felt it was simply time to move on.
I'm a bit bitter, I've seen Zach and Patton but never a full Comedians Of Comedy show. They never seem to be in the same town as me at the same time...and for that they can go fuck themselves...Sooooooooo Fuck You Patton, Fuck You Brian, Fuck You Zach, Fuck You Maria, Fuck You Henry Owings (For Fucks Sake, You Live Here, Couldn't You Get The Show Down Here Instead?) And Fuck You Whoever Else Was On The Tour...I hope you're all fucking happy for making me cry.

Eastern Bloc - Starting Friday July 11th!!!
Well, I'm hoping to make some other Blogger friends out here, so I wanted to point out that Kiss Atlanta (creators of the now defunct Decatur Social Club) now have a new weekly club night in Atlanta called Eastern Bloc. Seriously, everyone go, I'm like 90% sure you'll get laid...and check out the Kiss Atlanta Blog in the links section.
From The Kiss Atlanta Blog:
"Starting on Friday July 11th, KISSATLanta.com will launch its most ambitious nightlife project to date. Eastern Bloc will span three clubs on Glenwood Ave in the East Atlanta Village, featuring a rotating pool of over 30 local DJ’s playing rock, indie, 80’s, hip-hop, disco, funk, soul, deep house, electro, and club… all on one wristband.
We noticed how divided everyone was when it came to going out. Up until now, you had to make a decision of where you wanted to go and what style of music you felt like hearing. If it sucked or you changed your mind, you had to get in the car and drive somewhere else, park, pay another cover, and hope things worked out. Further more, people were pretty much segregated based on what they listened to.
Eastern Bloc is being created to try to break down those barriers and to create a more unified scene. No matter what you like… there’s a club just for you. If you decide you want to try something new, all you have to do is walk next door and the entire experience changes. Further more, rather than following the formula of having a set group of resident DJ’s, Eastern Bloc will regularly be rotating through DJ’s so that your experience changes week to week and room to room with.
Here’s the opening configuration for Eastern Bloc (we’ll be announcing the actual talent the week of the event):
The Graveyard Tavern - Electro, Bmore, House, Dubstep, New Wave
Cenci - 2 Floors of Hip-Hop, Disco, Funk, and Soul
The Glenwood - Rock, Indie, Brit-Pop, Mod, and Soul + Outdoor Patio
So, we look forward to seeing you all July 11th. Just find your way to Glenwood Ave in East Atlanta and look for the Bodega Nights truck and get your wristband there for access to the Eastern Bloc."

Ok Bitches, Mini Mix #1
This one is simple, i just took 5 songs that I've been enjoying lately, I think they are all from this year, and I blended in the ends to make it sound all DJ like...yes, that's why its all ONE song.
You love it. (links to mediafire)
1. Dr. Dog-The Breeze (From Fate)
2. The Dodos-Red and Purple (From Visiter)
3. Sloan-Black Champagne (From Parallel Play)
4. Deerhunter-Nothing Ever Happened (From Microcastle)
5. No Age-Teen Creeps (From Nouns)
You probably heard these songs somewhere else, like I said, I'm not that original.
You Bet Your Sweet Ass It Does! The Kid Stays In The Picture, Part 1
Lately I've been obsessed with the audiobook version of Robert Evans' The Kid Stays In The Picture. For those of you that are unfamiliar with Evans' work, he was the studio head of Paramount Pictures during the company's glory years. Evans helped the studio produce The Godfather, Harold & Maude, Chinatown, Love Story, The Odd Couple, Rosemary's Baby, Marathon Man, The Getaway...I'm probably forgetting a few big ones too. In addition to his brilliant work in film, he did an amazing job of doing cocaine off of models and actresses. Robert Evans, I salute you!
Each week, or when I feel like it, I'll post one of the six discs of the audiobook.
Here's part one, enjoy...PM me for the password if you're a lameass that forgot it already.

Seriously, this time I mean it people.
Hey everyone, after everyone's begging and pleading, I have finally started a blog. Ok, I'm lying, Its not my first blog, I've just never made it past the first post. This is different, I actually feel compelled to do this and keep up with it. I hope to update this with record downloads, reviews (live, shows, movies, dvds, people I sleep with, heroin bought at 97 estoria, etc...)
A few things you should know
-I'm an awful writer, me grammar and speling not be perfect. If this bothers you, sorry.
-I don't really have anything insightful/meaningful to say. If you're looking for original thoughts, read a book.
-I fucking love to swear
-I fucking love to joke about drugs and prostitutes, and doing drugs off of prostitutes
-I...Love...Ellipses...
