Lots of things going on this weekend and not a lot of time to write about them (we're planning a concert you jerks!), so if you read the show listings and pretend that the most insightful and humorous paragraph you could possibly imagine appeared next to each of them, you'll be able to get a pretty good idea of what we would have written if we had the time (unless you're just too dumb to imagine how good our writing can be). Dig? And Denton is quite obviously going to be insane this weekend, so you Dallas kids might want to think about making a trip on either or both nights. I know we say that a lot, but this time we mean it:

FRIDAY

Tree Wave | War Wizards | Night Game Cult | Chris Garver | Flashlight Party (Secret Headquarters-Denton)
Just in case you don't know, its doors and Flashlight Party at 7, Chris Garver at 8, Night Game at 9, War Wizards at 10 and Tree Wave at 11. There will be a FREE keg inside, but you should bring your own too since I hear those SHQ dudes will probably be able to finish the thing by themselves in under an hour. So get there early and drink quickly. And if you haven't seen Tree Wave live, you really should change that tonight. I promise that both the music and visual presentation is fantastic.

And it looks as though things will be wrapping up around 1130 or 12 at SHQ, meaning that you could stay until the very end and still catch:

Dosh headline a show with Sole and Skyryder at Rubber Gloves. For the past two weeks, I've been listening to The Lost Take, Dosh's latest record, and I've gotta tell you: its wonderful. Fans of jazz spiked post-rock like Sea and Cake, synth pop like The Cansecos and Russian Futurists, and the Canadian spacekraut of Caribou should really dig this stuff. Doing drugs before you go might make this even better unless you have a totally bummer freak out or something, bro (or is it brah?). Dosh's stuff seems far less hip hop oriented than most Anticon artists, but Anticon peeps will dig it as well, especially those that are into the strange sounds of Flagstaff's Sole, who is opening. And its Rubber Gloves, so I'm going to guess that Dosh will go on some time after midnight.

The Angelus | Noise Revival Orchestra | Grass Fight (Hailey's)
Another show in Denton that you can catch after that first bad ass show up top... and whether you go or not, you should really swing by The Angelus' Myspace page and check out their new song "Turned to Stone," because its really damn good. The ghostly orchestra sounds of Austin's Noise Revival, um, Orchestra sound pretty interesting too. And you want to read all about Grass Fight? Well go to their highly accessible Myspace page and do so. I think they call that kind of thing "black on black crime," do they not?

Current Leaves | 100 Damned Guns | Cartright (Doublewide)
Does 100 Damned Guns remind anyone else of an F-150 commercial sometimes?

Tame...Tame and Quiet | Bridges and Blinking Lights | Handbrake (Ridglea Theater- Ft. Worth)

SATURDAY

Here is where I run out of time:

Early in the evening (around 7), you can stop by Violent Squid's new pad (1729 Scripture St. in Denton) for some BBQ and a brief VS set.

In Dallas, the Hot Flash! Party with Stepehen R ar Fallout Lounge (Expo Park between Minc and Meridian Room) is clearly the best thing going. December's debut of the Hot Flash was packed and a lot of fun, with an eclectic DJ set including everything from trash hip hop to 80's synth to all other kinds of shit I don't have time to describe. This one looks to be equally as good, and probably the best place to go on Saturday if you're looking to score without having to go to a Meat Market.

Tre Orsi | Handbrake (Secret Headquarters)

A Night of Texas Noise/Experimental Music with: Set on Whore | A Fail Association | Aunt's Analog | Dromez | Concrete Violin | Kai Ros | Muzak | Habeeb (House of Tinnitus-Denton)
What a line up. Not sure about the cost, but its usually just a small donation and always a good time.

Baptist Generals | Shiny Around the Edges | The Modern History Duet (House show at Fra House- 2127 W. Oak St. in Denton) Show is BYOB, starts around 1030 and completely free from what I can tell. Shit, this is going to be a lot of fun. I'd get there early if I were you, because I'm expecting the place to be packed and possibly impossible to get into after a certain point in the night. The Modern History Duet is a jazz duet featuring members of Notes from Underground.

Panty Drop Sock Hop with: Wild in the Streets | Sticky Buns | MC Router (Rubber Gloves)
A girly DJ show that will apparently be attended by 8 million girls.

And finally, the guys from Hardin Sweaty and the Ready to Go will be co hosting a house party show at 1227 Fuller in far East Dallas with The Freek Out and a couple other bands that I can't recall at this time. Sorry. Anyway, its five bucks and free drinks inside (keg and mixed) and starts at 8pm.

ADD: And how could we forget the excellent Pleasant Grove playing at the Cavern with Student Film? We didn't forget, thats how.

Check back with us this weekend for updates and Sunday stuff.

I think that Frosty Burger is the best restaurant in the world! I swear to God they put heroin in their #6's.

But what do you LIKE?

jasmine is on beltline before midway in addison ("the town with all the places to eat"). it is good and the interior always reminded me of the set of some rad new wave video.

i've given up on matt's in lakewood. the last time i ate there my food was cold and greasy by the time i got it. what's the best tex mex in lakewood. there's a real hot button issue.

What is everyone's favorite restaurant in D/FW? Mine is this little Chinese place called Jasmine on Belt Line in Carrolton right before you hit....um...I forget the name of the town that has all the restaurants. Anyways, it's a really cool place! They have this great big, white Grand Piano and all of these faux-30's looking chandeliers and soft neon lights of purple and blue and these two lit up green dragons on the wall that are both breathing fire out at this crystal ball in between them. The place looks like something right out of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom or Big Troubl In Little China. The pu-pu platter there is excellent! So is the peking duck, though you have to order it 24 hours in advance. Does anyone have any other suggestions for good dining in the area?

see this is the real problem with women...
farah has been such a hateful bitch to me so many times and i let it slide off my back.but now that alll these people are calling her out,she's pulling the helpless crygirl crap.let this be a lesson to all.i think farah is a solid artist,just a little spoiled.farah,pick up and move on...

I wake up early in the morning. I work a long day. I get off work and I come home and read your blogs and cry myself to sleep. Why are you doing this to me? Leave me alone, please, I just can't take it anymore. I am a person jut like you, it hurts.

i'd.

My pappy had a sayin'...

"Not even with YOUR dick."

huh?

light as a feather stiff as a board

is really how I'd imagine it.

haha!

Clay had a pick-up truck. He was also probably REALLY fuckin' drunk. Farah is a vampire anyways so what do you expect. If Farah is ever "fornicating" with anyone, God forbid BREEDING, don't be suprised if it is the kindest, most rational person you know. That's how vampires work.

dood ... klee .... wow

HEY! Farah 7:50!

Leave SHQ out of this!

p00p

199, and I will let farah finish this...

198

oh god im so close, keep going

He did when he was in The Falkon.

cept the drummer for ghostcar doesn't have a pick up truck....

Ask the drummer for Ghostcar. I saw them "fornicating" in his pick-up truck.

Is she this crazy in bed, too?

I think Farah has been on here the whole way through, unfortunately. Something tells me that 9/10 of the posts declaring how horrible such-n-such band was has the extreme likelyhood of being a Farah Nemat post. This thing would be under 100 minus Farahkhan.

once again farah gets us close to 200. while i really think she is just a crazy bitch with problems she does win the almost 200 posts prize even if she was just bringing up the rear on this one.

Why are you such a braggart, Farah? What would Johnny Jewel think if I sent this to him?

Big fucking deal. Kenny G is on a label.

fuck all you guys. i am on a record label unlike all you loser bands on here. Keep playing shq on friday nights and the OMG the big gig at rubbergloves on a saturday. YOu guys are jealous..its simple..my band is on a label and you are not-farah

It never ends. you guys know i am a girl with feelings. please stop.

I prefer my farah in Portland. Or Madegascar. Or anywhere but here really.

i dont know about you guys, but i prefer my farah skanky and mentally unstable.

If Farah stays away them we will leave her alone. I hope. Maybe if she was to come on here and say something nice or intelligent for a change?

No. Farah needs to be told off. Enough is enough.

-Post Madonna

you same assholes that keep saying to farah to bug off need to stop bring her up. bug off.

and ps, I don't know if I'm not getting this joke or what, but it's not fucking pre-madonna, you stupid fucking cunty faggots, it's fucking

PRIMA DONNA, DUMBASSES!!!

even if you mean to use pre-madonna, don't, because it's not fucking funny. it's RETARDED.

man, I just read through 200 comments and THIS is what ties my panties up in a knot?

uh, good show friday. that is all.

Hey, everybody!
Let's see if we can make Farah commit suicide!!!
Words are awesome!!!

And no one has pretended to be you on here, bitch. It's been you all along and you know it and so do we. What a rotten existence you have chosen for yourself. You should be ashamed that you have chosen a life of wanting only fame and monetary gain. What do you have to offer in your songs? Lyrics like "You make me want to die." How much more negative and souless can you fucking be?! Please do us all a favor and just get lost.

I request that you go fuck yourself you self-absorbed little shitstain. Wow. You threw all of your myspace friends away again? It's only the 1,347th time you've done that! Do you even have any real friends? I truly doubt it. The only way you can get friends is by kissing ass and sucking dick. Disappear.

I have quit blogspot and deleted my myspace friends, I request out of politness that you do not use my name or pretnend to be me.

i cant believe i just read this whole thing.

going to denton rock city where there's jokes! :)

isopod was the best thing about the hot flash.

A little girl goes to the barber shop with her father. She stands next to the barber chair, while her dad gets his hair cut, eating a snack cake. The barber says, “Sweetheart, you’re gonna get hair on your Twinkie.” She says, “Yes, I know, and one day I’m gonna get boobs, too.” taken form denton rock city....stupid fking joke.

You don't have to say anything. I can see it in your anonymous gaze...and hit counts.

It is only in indulging in the bad that you realize how really good the good is.

Well, now...didn't say anything about love, my dear.

Well, thank you for continuing to read. I'm glad that you're willing to suffer for my writing. Love is a bitch.

I get my fix of reading crap by reading your postings, however the Observer makes an excellent windshield wiper. Much better than a towel.

Trust me, I don't believe in "hey now, hey now". I love how cannibalistic this gets. It's like "Battle Royale" with words. I don't really listen to a lot of Kraut or Prog, but I like the attempt to define my taste. Try again. YOU MUST read the Observer.

He either works for the observer or he's a mall security guard or both. MALL SECURITY! Someone is posting their opinion on here come get them!

Defensive is always jumping into the thread with his hey now, hey now spiel! What a loser.

my band knows how to use sound to my advantage and you can dance to it. The warwizards just sounded like chaos to me!-farah

defensive stinks!

defensive listening is not amazing or genius but utterly BORING. school marmy bad posting about krautprogwankery. you MUST work for the Observer.

The same people/person complaining about "amazing" and "genius" being overused or misused is a real waste of fucking time. I can think of much worse hyperbole in our daily lives and chances are, you buy into it.

FUN - 1. A sourc of amusement, enjoyment, or pleasure "Clowns are FUN!" 2. Enjoyment or amusement : PLEASURE. "Have FUN at a fucking party then you couch=potato son-of-a-bitch!" 3. Playful, often noisy activity.

Noisy activity? Fun? No way!

They have slow days at work.

OMG guys!! This thread is so last week and the GOOD RECORDS SALES thread is THE thread to be on today. DOY BROS!

How do all these GENIUS AMAZING musicians manage to compose their mind blowing masterpieces when they spend all their time on here? Now that IS amazing!

Fuck the pixels. Pencils and dice, baby.

WHAT'S THIS?! THE 'ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO WAR WIZARDS' SAYS THAT IF YOUR NAME IS PRONOUNCED WITH A Z INSTEAD OF AN S, DOUBLE THE EGO POINTS!!

Shit, I LEVELED AGAIN!! Let's whup this motherfucker.

Get outta here wankers and stop pressing me.

ha ha! I rulz!

Im sure Sam Turd Nugget would be with you, he likes to play with wee pixels too.

HAHA! Larz rulz!

I am a pre-madonna. I am also pretentious. And guess what, I'M HAVING THE TIME OF MY LIFE!!!! :-)

2:06 - I RECOGNIZE YOUR PLAYWRITING SEMANTICS.

My name was mentioned 7 times in this thread!! Let's see... cross-indexing CLASS: WAR WIZARD with RACE: SCANDINAVIAN/IRISH, that gives me.. 500,000 EGO POINTS!

Holy shit I leveled!! Time to go fuck up that nasty Pit Fiend still loose in the attic.

Anyone with me? I need some muscle, somebody that can pick a lock, and a +10 Dildo of Demon Assraping. No newbs plz.

I have an idea! You say something mean to me, and then i'll retort with something mean about you! WE CAN DO THIS SHIT ALL DAY! WEEEEEEEE!!!! It's wonderful being gay and American, don't you think?

I think this is all kind of fun though. Beats work!

burn

AND THE CAPS ON LOCK!

WE ALSO HAVE WAAAAAAAY TOO MUCH TIME ON OUR HANDS!

Your welcome, you all obviously needed it! (Pre-Madonna?)

WE ARE ALL SCENESTERS ON HERE!

ego:
e·go (g, g)
n. pl. e·gos
1. The self, especially as distinct from the world and other selves.
2. In psychoanalysis, the division of the psyche that is conscious, most immediately controls thought and behavior, and is most in touch with external reality.

Thanks for the fucking English lesson, professor.

Scenester:A scenester is someone involved in a particular music scene, often letting the music they listen to determine the people they associate with, the clothes they wear and their overall attitude. Scenesters take cues from others like them to see what is up and coming musically, whether it be Indie rock, Hardcore, Punk or Emo.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scenester

Amazing: Amazement includes the notion of
bewilderment of difficulty accompanied by surprise. It
expresses a state in which one does not know what to
do, or to say, or to think. Hence we are amazed at
what we can not in the least account for. Astonishment
also implies surprise. It expresses a state in which
one is stunned by the vastness or greatness of
something, or struck with some degree of horror, as
when one is overpowered by the ?normity of an act,
etc.
[1913 Webster]

I'll pet you like a cat. Ooooh yeah, do you like it?! Yeah...i'm pettin' you like a little pussy cat....i'm pettin' you like a pussy! Oh yeah you little bitch.....spray we in my face when I cum! Yeaaahhhhhhgggghghgh!!!!!!!!!1

Without ego's we'd all be dead.

quote of the day

Oddly enought, this thread is pretty tame.

Pet me like a cat bastards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jonah is a faggit. :-)

You can do whatever you want on here! If you don't like it, go away.

I made the best pineapple pudding last night at the House Of Pudding and it was AMAZING, I'm a genius. Pet me like a cat bastards!!

You people crack me up, so self important and getting mad at a blog, proclaiming your lovers and your band the best and so and so rulez and defending and fighting, name calling, picking on mental people, and it all has nothing to do with music but with your self absorbed fragile egos. AMAZING!

It was Farah.

He's right though. This is no way to live life. I'm with 1:35. Goodbye wsj. The show was great but this is pretty ugly.

And I bet it was Kyle nightgame.

1:35, that sort of melo-dramatic shit works better if you use your name.

And Lars, don't listen to these children. Most of them are just hard up for attention. I think we should stay as far away from we shot jr as possible because this is no way to live. This is my last post.

GIVE US ATTENTION! WE NEED ATTENTENTION! OUR BAND SUCKS SHIT SO WE HAVE TO WIN YOU OVER ON HERE WITH LIES! WEEEEEE! Where will it all fucking end, man? Will the administrator please burn this 100+ comment piece of hatred and lies now please! Quit supporting these children and their obnoxious, cruel ways. I'm gonna' go play piano now.

Fuck. I don't take myself seriously enough to brag about myself. I said thanks for the great response -- 'cause there was one -- and thanks for the great time -- 'cause I had one. My bandmates were fucking badasses, though.

11:51 - I think turning down our speakers to get a better mix is what Wanz meant by 'soundcheck'. We weren't running anything but vox thru their P.A. Yes, that's how loud rehearsal is.

FULL OF SHIT!

This is what everyone looks like when they're on here.

This is what you kind souls look like.

This is what you idiots look like.

Treewave sucked.

Treewave was great.

War Wizards sucked.

War Wizards were great.

The Night Game Cult sucked.

The Night Game Cult was great.

Chris Garver sucked.

Chris Garver was great.

This is for Heather only. I wasn't talking about War Wizards. I really do think it's admirable that you and Lars and Wanz all use your own names on here. That's how it should be. I really need to get my own account on here. Sorry. I'm talking about, mostly, the people who didn't even play at this show and who try to talk up their bands and advertise their show's later this week and so on. Sorry about the confusion. Things can get mighty fucking confusing on here. :-)

-Matt

The ear is the sense organ that detects sound. The vertebrate ear shows a common biology from fish to humans, with variations in structure according to order and species. It not only acts as a receiver for sound, but plays a major role in the sense of balance and body position.

The word "ear" may be used correctly to describe the whole vertebrate ear, or just the visible portion. In most animals, the visible ear is a flap of tissue that is also called the pinna. The pinna may be all that shows of the ear, but it has only a tiny role in hearing and none at all in the sense of balance. In people, the pinna is more often called the auricle. Vertebrates have a pair of ears, each one placed symmetrically on opposite sides of the head. That arrangement aids in the ability to balance and in the ability to localize sound.

"You guys bragged all week about how loud it was going to be on this website."

yeah, they also said to bring earplugs. I have some extra foam earplugs(unused because I bought better re-usable ones), that i'll bring to their next show to hand out.

I'm not riled up it just makes you look like an ugly human.
:)
:)
:)

FUCK THAT play louder. It was intense.

1:26 and 11:52, most of us just post hateful things to rile you up. it works. its gratifying.

8:11 needs to stop worrying about what other people are wearing and just shake his thang.

1:26 am brings up a good point. There is no humility or grace. If it's not boasting about how great you are it's smack talking on a blog comment board trying to put others down to make yourselves feel cooler. Have we really been reduced to being the lowest common denominators?

Wanz, come on. You brought EXTRA speakers to a place the size of a shoebox that has a simple vocal PA. I think in that instance a soundcheck can be skipped in favor of simply turning it down a notch. You guys bragged all week about how loud it was going to be on this website. I mean, you blew a speaker in your rig! Would a soundcheck have prevented that? Is that how loud you guys rehearse? I'm assuming your reahersal space is about that size?

We will not be so loud next time. Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks Soundchecks

sorry for any hurt ears. Even my ears were ringing when I went to bed.

Have your opinons and have a heart. At least have enough respect for a person's feeling to talk like that behind their back. No longer a relevant subject for discussion in this public forum. Talk about this show.

I just wanted to say that it comes off kind of lame looking(as in it makes me think you aren't worth checking out) when bands get on here and drop their own names and how great their shows were. If you guys really believe in yourselves, you will let your creations speak for themselves. I could name names, but hey....just read for yourself.

Meggie rulz! Yeah, something was burning. I think it was the smell of a suped up Larz on the brink of redlining! Damn that guy is intense....I love it! He could entertain me just by getting up there by himself i'm sure. A born entertainer!

if anyone who reads this was at the fuller house on saturday (it was full, but god knows with whom), thanks for coming. sorry the cops aborted our set, we'll set up the same lineup at J&Js soon and do it right.

p.s. heather is my fuckin momma! i love her.

this is kind of late due to being dead tired, but the show at shq was a blast. everyone did a good job, and war wizards kicked so much ass you could fucking SMELL it! it smelled good, like burned things. in fact, i think at one point something was burning. and bitch wine + free beer is the shit!
by the way, kyle is amazing and im proud to be a night game cult fan.

yeah we want pictures!

ps - farah, stop for yr own good. just shut up and stop. it will go away if you just stop. shut up.

Where's all the photos from Friday night?

I missed all the fun (on purpose) --i will be playing with farah at rgrs feb 21st!!! that happens to also be my birthday!! --i think that denton is a great place to be creative (on purpose) and i think im in love with Toshi and all the hard --one of CTR

Handbrake and Tre Orsi put on a great early show at SHQ last night. The Fra house show was fun too, Shiny Around the Edges were great. I took off shortly after their set, because the house was fucking packed(and still had to drive back to dallas). Glad to see such a turn out at all the events this weekend.

you guys have no idea how sad you have made me and I can't go out

thanks to all who came to the 'girly dj' show at rgrs last nite -there were actually some boys there too, ha. the whole night was a blast. tonight (sunday) wild in the streets is going on at hailey's ..guest dj's erick and justin will be joining me again. no cover, 18 & up, $2 wells and domestics, $3 any beer on the wall(excluding super premiums), 52 beers on tap. oh and good music as well.
info

Lemmy is the shit!

-Motorhead

man, i gotta agree that that hot flash party was just a bad fashion show. you guys put bandanas over your mouths like bandits? wild! you wear t shirts with bright silkscreen images repeated? outrageous! but wait for it...you're suburban kids that throw hand signals like you actually belong to a gang? geez, you are just too much! gang of retards.

oof.

So cartright is a little grizzly cover band right?

stupider band name/idea:

anonymous said...

i love fra pandolf.

http://mason.gmu.edu/~lsmithg/275duchess.htm#pandolf

And what's with all of this "pre-madonna" shit? You're a pre-madonna. Where are we now?

I can't think of a stupider bandname than Fra Pandolf.

Shiney was great last night but the show got WAAAAAAAAY over crowded for my tastes. It seemed like people were just showing up because they thought it was a party... Some guy in an avenged sevenfold shirt kept yelling at Modern History Duet. I left when one of the guys from Baptist Generals came in the room and started yelling at people to get out of the room, it was kind of silly and a little premadonna-ish.

Modern History and Shiney were both really good though... Plus big ups to Fra for actually allowing that many people in their home and being totally laid back about it.

Modern History Duet were fucking fantastic.

Then you're burnt out. Write a song in the vain of Sonic Youth or what ever other burnt out band you're into. Baptist Generals maybe?

i love that burnt out message bored. :)

this is what happens when you try to mix dallas and denton together. clash!

I can't count how many times i've seen someone get maliciously attacked on denton rock city. Quit name dropping your fucking burnt out message board.

4:43

I think what you are refering to is called "being civil". Maybe you could call if "Adult".

I think the whole SAY IT TO MY FACE thing is... Well, it's got some nuances. In a society, you often don't have to really tell people where they stand. It seems you would be happier if we could all hand out little cards.

"Hey. What's up? I'm in the Denton Scene, and just so we can be on the same page and be REAL and stuff, here's your rating card. You get a 6 out of 10. I like you, but you probably can't come to my house, unless it's a medium sized BBQ. Ordinarily, like at work, the store, school, I'd hopefully just get to smile at you, but I need you to know exactly, because I'm not "fake nice."

Because, we're in BANDS and that changes EVERYTHING.

Yeah u guys are "fake nice" i'm part of that scene and know exactly what denton is all about

ty and lars are good peeps. I think they make great parents. If i'm not mistaken isn't ty's wife a professor. Lars also does well for himself in the job sense.

I think the threat of violence was a bit tounge in cheek. but oh well.

No, on Denton Rock City, we're all too nice to each other. I thought that was the problem. On here, it's the hate masterbation.

Oh, and I love how a mother of two can come on here and threaten people with violence. You and Ty Squid should start a daycare.

SR -- you're absolutely right. Thanks for doing the show.

I love trainwrecks too.

Thank you Lars and Stonedranger! I had a great time too! Weeejklvnfsdjkv[nsdfouvDFSNBVUdso

i liked the w wizards a whole lot, but i also like a lot of bands that are trainwrecks.

again, just remember one thing: there are thousands of different people that read this blog on a daily basis, and only a small number of them get on here and talk a bunch of shit. So take it with a grain of salt. There are some negative attitudes around here to be sure, but there are a lot of people who are interested enough in what is going on to read this blog and check out some of the things we talk about. That doesn't mean that they necessarily like all the things we talk about, but it does mean that the really hateful anons are a very vocal yet extremely small minority in the big scheme of things.

Amen... thanks everyone. :) And, we have a beautiful scene. It's been a very very rare thing that I've met anyone I don't like. That's why I'm often apalled by the assholery going on in these comment threads. Friday night I was surrounded by great people having a great time.

Thank you! :)

The music WAS really good, that's why I don't understand what the fuck is going on here. I had a fun time on FRIDAY NIGHT! Can we pleeeeease talk about FRIDAY NIGHT, and stop fighting. I'll start us off, okay? I'd like to say that I am thankful for having a place like Secret Headquarters to go to and hang out with my friends. I'm glad I get to see my peers perform and play their hearts out for me. I'm thankful for we shot jr for setting this show up. Thanks! I'm thankful for all of the acts that played, whether or not they were entertaining to me or not. Thank you to The Flashlight Party! Thank you to Chris Garver! Thank you to The Night Game Cult! Thank you to War Wizards! Thank you to Treewave! Thanks for giving me something interesting to do with my life outside of the drudgery of work. I had a great time! I think we need to cherish the fact that we have night's like this or WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE THEM ANYMORE! XOXO

Isn't hate great? You are all completely fucked. This is supposed to be about art, isn't it? What the fuck is going on?!! What an ugly scene.

wsjr just became denton rock city.

Hot Flash! Party: Wall-to-wall douchebaggery. A time-bomb exploded inside Urban Outfitters and this was the result. Music was pretty good, though.

-Heather Farah Larsen

good lord, how many fucking prima's are going to start showing up w/out their crack pipes and blow hard over any dissenting voices who arent particularly impressed w/their schtick. hi, i'm farah. hi, i'm heather. hi, i'm - just shut the fuck up already, scenestress....

The Eighth Continent sure as shit wouldn't have happened without Heather's support. You try caring enough about local music to co-run a venue underneath the house where you are taking care of your young children and family. She has more of a right to be heard than plenty of you other shit talking assholes. :)

exactly.

We don't need a fucking war; WE NEED A FUCKING WAAAAAAAAR!!!!!

Heather isn't a God, she's a Goddess! I love Heather! :)

Heather could kick the living shit out of you.

Goth Fight!

Oh my God. Heather Larsen! Let's all bow down and worship the godliness of Heather Larsen! Because we all know that she isn't getting her scene cred from someone elses name. Boo hiss! Get off it!

thanks for the great response to war wizards last night. i know we had a fucking blast. next show we'll present a more developed act (last night was highly improvisational) and a better sound check... but hopefully nothing any less abrasive (and for me, cathartic.)

and, i like farah's act, not necessarily because i think she's a great singer or mentally together, but because i think there's some amiable, uncomfortable sort of peculiarity about her. if you don't dig farah, then don't support her. as for my friends in glass candy -- they're great people and a fucking great band. they're helping out someone they like, why rag on that?? you guys are making some crazy assumptions about their relationship, unless some big story about the details of the situation surrounding their working together totally slipped past me somewhere...

anyway, what a fucking party last night. thanks WSJR, SHQ, and everyone who showed (especially all of you i hadn't seen in so long). i really fucking needed that good time last night. work's been fucking killing me lately.

Farah is evil. Stay away from her at all costs. I am not even kidding.

farah is what happens when people kiss ass and it works. don't be mad at farah, be mad at glass candy for helping her sorry ass. anyways. war wizards were cool, they just need to turn down their guitar. yes. waaaay too much squealy guitar=i want to go outside. lars can turn shit into champagne though, so i'd expect to see a lot more from war wizards. excellent first show! say what you will about the night game cult. i personally think the fucker is a genius. so do a few other people i know. i think it's so great how everyone around here either think he is the next hitler or the only true poet in d/fw. either way, i thought he was the most entertaining act of last night. don't know many retarded people who can almost bring me to tears of joy and encite an entire crowd to sing his song's in unison. treewave was visually wonderful, but musically so-so. made me realize how great broadcast really is. as for chris garver, i missed his set. i definantly got my 5$ worth though. thanks we shot jr!

Farah=Paris Hilton of North Texas. We could use another talentless, spoiled whore with a drum machine. She'll be famous before any of the of the real "artists" featured on this blog. Put Notes From Underground and Farah on the same stage, and tell me what is real and what is done out of vanity.

HOUSE OF TINNITUS is gonna slay tonight!!!

The show last night was cool. Last night reminds me why i bring a set of earplugs to shows, just in case. SHQ was cool, great people running the joint.

I'm gearing up for a possible second night there, because they have another sweet show tonight.

Dude, if Farah actually lives up to her words and doesn't write on here again I will sprout fucking wings.

Hey everybody, it's Farah! Lay down the goddamn red carpet! We don't want you on here you stuck up fucking bitch. Go suck on Glass Candy's dicks some more.

I didn't write that above comment about my record in texas. I wont be reading this stufff anymore. it makes me feel weak and tired. good luck

Writing a book of anonymous comments...hmmm. I like it.

everyone i have the best record in texas- farahh

I love how everyone gets on here and trys to play armchair critic. What's sad is that this set of comments is one of the most positive i've ever seen on we shot jr. Some of you people are just downright hateful and cruel. Or is it perhaps JEALOUS? I'd like to see what the guy who wrote a fucking book about who was cool and who sucked does. What can you do to entertain all of us? Get on here and bash my friends and people who are actually doing SOMETHING POSITIVE with their lives? You're just sad.

Heather rules! I liked War Wizards a lot, I(and this is just me personally) just think they should take a lot of the high-end out. If the guitarist dropped down an octave or two I think they would be amazing. Great beats though and Lars is always entertaining. Great show!

Good morning.

Thanks to everybody for coming out! We were a little nervous due to the fact that we were at least double occupancy, but soon relaxed due to complete wastedness.

Hope everybody had as much fun as we did.

liquified macrobiotic bovine wash

magnetic resonance imaging!

roentgenography!

envisage!

The whole crowd was singing along to the night game's last song.........yeah........must have sucked. Were you even at the show?

visualizations!

"Nobody, like, sucked....." WHO THE FUCK WRITES LIKE THAT?!! You're retarded. Where are we now?

The Night Game Cult fucking ruled last night! This is for the guy/girl who wrote the page long critique of the show. You were the only person watching Chris Garver. Relax and have fun and quit being such a fucking critic.

It was one of the better Nightgame shows. I always enjoy it when he has another person or two with him.

Thanx for letting us wank.Good Times and Good Wine. Really dug every act. Sorry for anyone who's ears got blown. Electronic music + No soundcheck = uncontrolled chaos.

but that's fun too sometimes.

Have to put a stop to this before it gets out of hand.

Chris Garver-Heart and soul. Seemed really sincere.

Nightgame Church-Is that guy retarded? Seriously. I'm not trying to be mean. Was that guy really retarded?

War Wizards-Pretty big let down. Wankery. Silk Stocking, Undoing of David Wright, and Falkon were waaaaaaaay better than this. Plus, and I know you'll call me out for this, Wanz was... Man he just needs to talk quieter you know? Loud does not translate directly into good, but they got a good response, so...

Treewave-Had never seen him before and the hype was justified. That was fucking great. I'm with stonedranger.

Nobody, like, sucked, but Chris Garver and Treewave were head and shoulders above the other two acts.
Pretty hard to deny.

All in all, a damn cool party. Secret Headquarters was not at all what I was expecting and I thought it was very cozy and the guys that seemed to be working ther were very nice. And we shot jr had a great show. It was alot of fun!!

Glad to be home it was a long drive not counting the tacos.

holy fck'n shit my ears are shot to hell now.

war wizards -best show of the year.

Are you really planning a Concert? Are you Conducting?

free blow for the first successfully thrown egg to introduce itself to wanz.

o.k. then

Z Snails party in Hurst Saturday. Free grolsch & whipits if you bring a pre-amp with phantom power AND one circuit-bent Furby!

Modern History Duet (formerly Boyscout Manual) is not jazz. It's Mike & Justin from Notes doing what they do in Notes.

Thanks Scott.

But that Ford comment did make me laugh when I read it. I am a Ford Truck man, you know.

Monte Cassino's final show is tonight at the Curtain Club with Hk!
It is such a shame they are breaking up.
It was just too good to be true.
Don't miss this! Seriously.

SR-

saturday:

after the baptist generals' set at 2127 w. oak--- we will be djing as cosmic cat nip at my place (the guest house directly behind the house) until the sun comes up. we're also going to be projecting some very interesting video art behind us.

i cant wait to see treewave again. thanks shq and wsjr. LOVES!

house party is gonna kick ass saturday. $5 books and lots of booze.

No specials tonight. It's Taco Bell for you Bub.

We at SHQ are indeed pretty savage drinkers of beer and other spirits, but we vow to save a sip for Stonedranger after he/she comes up and introduces him/herself.

We also throw our loving support behind 100 Damned Guns, and Judd will straight kick your ass!

Can't wait for tonight! It's going to be packed, and the spot doesn't hold what you would call a lot of people. Best get there around opening time. The keg will arrive shortly after. Bring a jacket, we got no heat, and the smoking goes on outside.

210 East Hickory. Go to our myspace to see which building you're looking for. It's a great joy of ours to watch the same car of indie kids drive by 7 times before finding the dump!
