Phantom Of The Opera

Well, I thought I was going to CA. this weekend! LOL A lack of cash has me stuck at Home, but that's not a bad thing because there's lots and lots of stuff going on this weekend, starting tonight there's a Free gig happening @ Vamp'd with the Tinglerz, the Dirty Panties, and Mad Mike And The Pistoleros, who are apparently some people's favorite band to play there, right Ashley and Aida? hahaha And if that's not your cup of tea, you can always go to Yayo Taco tonight to see Cerebral Incubation, Crucify The Enslaved and a couple of more Metal bands with unreadable names. LOL I sent an email to the Promoter asking him to decipher the band names and never heard back from him. Oh well. I guess it's too much effort for a Promoter to get the word out about a gig. Much like Pay To Play, I guess that's now the Band's responsibility to do as well.

Tomorrow is First Friday, and the place to start off your evening is the Gypsy Den, which is where the aforementioned Aida and Ashley and a few others will be selling their home crafted goods. They run Elegant Ambush and sell some really cool stuff, so click here if you wanna check out what they're selling. I know it was all over the News that First Friday was cancelled, but it really wasn't. Only the money making, chain link fence erecting, shitty car towing part of it was cancelled, so enjoy First Friday the way it was meant to be enjoyed while you can. The Farce will continue in the Fall. While you're down there check out the Seriouslys @ Blackbird Studios. That should be good too! After that, head on over to Yayo Taco for Unfair Fight's CD Release Party! I got an advanced copy of it and I can tell you that it's fucking INCREDIBLE!! One of my favorite Local bands and one of the few here in town that deserve all of your Respect and Support. Those guys bust their asses to get shit done, and they bring it to any stage they play, no matter the size of the venue. I love those guys and would be there if only they weren't playing with 'That Band', but that's no reason for you not to be there. It's gonna be a great gig. Rule Of Thumb, The Quitters and G.P.B. are the support. Congrats to Unfair Fight for getting this CD out. It's been a long time coming and I'm proud of you guys. XOXOXOXO Thanks for the shout out and the photo credit on the CD! What's up with that medley thing hidden track at the end, huh? LOL

This whole 'You Know You Grew Up In Whittier If...' page has consumed my Life as of late... LOL Good fun and I'm running into all sorts of old friends... it's great! :-) Does your City have one? Stay away from it if it does. These Facebook pages are like crack! hahaha

Saturday, since I'm gonna be here in town, I'm heading off to see Marcia Griffiths with the Lady Reiko & The Sin City Prophets @ Silverton, then afterwards, since I can't go to Pulsar's Birthday Party @ the Bunkhouse (Free BBQ and CAKE!! <3) because he always puts that shitty band that goes along with is Pay To Play gigs on the bill, I will be heading off to see TheCore and Battle Born play with DC Fallout @ the Royal Resort and then, if there's time, I'll stop by Meatheads to catch the tail end of that Hargo, Fat Dukes Of Fuck and Dick Falcon gig that's happening there. Yeah, Dick Falcon still play gigs - I told you guys they did! hahaha And if you'd like a big ol' slice of Drama, served with a huge topping of Tuff Guy Dooshbaggery, then be @ the Bunkhouse on Sunday for the Cockasilly themed vagina gathering for the Chop Tops and the Rocketz. Bring yer knife and a lot of your friends - no fair fighting allowed! hahaha

Everything is updated. New stuff added (as always), and old stuff I forget to mention is still there, like the Music Reviews for the month of June, or the Show Review of the Humilitate / Napalm Raid / Life's Torment gig @ Yayo a while back. Check it out by clicking here. Get off your ass, and go see some bands play. It's the cure for what ails ya! ;-)
