1. Acid Mother's Temple | The Antarcticans | The Great Tyrant (Hailey's Denton)
The best Japanese experimental noise psych freak band of all time! Really, this should be a great show. AMT will require you to take acid at the door. But even if you don't, you'll still really enjoy it if you don't need music to have a good beat that you can dance to. Antarcticans and Ft. Worth's The Great Tyrant sound pretty good too. Check it.

2. iDi* Amin | Ghostcar (Cool Bean's Denton)
Show starts at 930 and should be a good one, featuring one of Denton's more interesting up and coming noise acts with one of the area's staple experimental fusion jazz etc. groups. Or maybe the area's only. Its on the roof of Cool Beans apparently, and the weather is just right for that sort of thing.

did anyone see The Great Tyrant? I am curios.

No Way! I didn't know the Cool Beans guy asked you to turn down. Heck, Ghostcar was waaaaaay louder than iDi. Hmmm... who knew?!

M-.

not sure if the Cool Beans guy wholly agreed with Mike's asessment of "introspective and laid back" ... at least his reaquest that we turn it down "by at least 10 decibels" would lead us to believe that .... apparently the oscillations carried for blocks and blocks. We were not at 100% as we were w/o guitarist Paul, but we still represented.

Ghostcar as always were just dazzling, the set ended with Karl feeding back his trumpet and pounding it into his amp ... I'm not sure that's *ever* been done before. The thing about Ghostacr is their sets seem to build and build and build until they reach a ludicrous level of pants-peeing awesomeness. Damn.

B Minor Harmonic was the most fun I've had at a show in a long time last night. Silly string, confetti poppers, babble fish, balloons. It was a party to be experienced. I arrived late and still suffered A Pacific Model though. Bleh.

acid mothers temple ruled the school last night. way way way awesome. they played stuff off of 'mantra of love' totally kick'n and the album 'anthem of the space' sooooo sweet. aparently the show before this one did suck. i don't know i wasn't there but the one before that one kicked ass. and this line up last night was the same line up as this is the same line up as the last kick ass show...and it did indeed.

As always, iDi*Amin played a great show. A laidback, introspective exploration of varying soundscapes under the stars... plus beer! Jen and I are looking forward to more shows.

asian hippies: two words that should never be uttered in the same sentence...

I was pretty disappointed with Acid Mother's Temple the last time they were here.

My typing grammer sux. Must be the smoke.

I am guest Dj'ing at the Smoke tonight. So if you are staying in Dallas come on out shake those hips. If you are in Denton or going to Denton get to Hailey's early for The Great Tyrant and get ready to have your mind blown. They are quite amazing.

strident zend is rolling at pleasantry. hi ineka!!!

The Smoke is tonight for you folks in that other larger town that starts with a D

I thought that show was cancelled?
