The Beatdown | Minx Burlesque | Christian! Teenage Runaway (Dan's Silver Leaf)

Not the kind of show you see at Dan's everyday and I don't mind one bit. There will be two bands and a burlesque troupe so it's actually an uncommon show for most venues. The Beatdown plays throwback soul-rock and I've enjoyed the songs on the page, so this is a good chance to see if the magic translates live. They feature members of S-1 Committee, Pointy Shoe Factory, Denton County Revelators and a handful of other bands that escape me right now. Christian! Teenage Runaway have only improved upon something that I didn't think could get any better. This is probably the coolest Dan's show since Our Band Could Be Your Life back in October.

Chief Death Rage | I Kill Cars | The Daily Beat (J & J's Pizza)

Chief Death Rage have really honed their sludgy aesthetic to an impressively devastating extreme. If you close your eyes and just suck in all the reverb and riffage, it's like a Budgie bootleg blasted from an overdriven PA. All the more fucked up when it's bouncing off of the concrete floors and wooden ceilings of J & J's tonight. I Kill Cars sound like pretty good slop-punk. The Daily Beat on the other hand take a much more melodic and sing-song approach to the stigmatized genre.

Lost Generation with DJ Wanz Dover (Fallout Lounge)

Wanz will be showing highlights from the Fela Kuti documentary: Music Is The Weapon from 1982. Sounds rad.

DJ G (Hailey's)

Good times last night, thanks to all who came out!

"ummm.....our band could be your life was pretty fucking lame. the fact that the last "great" show at dan's was a night of cover songs by a bunch of mediocre bands is saying very, very little."

I cannot roll my eyes hard enough.

Man, someone is in a bad mood.

OBCBYL was fucken awesome.

I need money because Rubber Gloves never pays me. I'm easily taken advantage of I guess.

The MINX girls are actually quite attractive. Have you ever even been to one of their performances?

-Kyle

That Fela documentary is a must see. Is anyone going to Dallas? I need a ride.

So does your mama...

Fela Kuti, "Music Is the Weapon." Get educated. This is a great documentary. "The Lost Generation" night is underated.

fat girls give great head.

To porkrinds and other grrl haters out there, I am sure you would you prefer mutal masterbation with you're best buddy watching "toothpicks in boy shorts with tit jobs" instead? PUSSY!

im totally excited about the minx/beatdown show!

minx really does choreograph all their numbers and they work very hard at making sure that they feel very vaudeville--i love it. anonymously knocking ladies who arent your type is just sad. loser.

Dwayne & Mariel from Jackson 8!
