400 BLOWS video - NEW
We were going to edit this video, but we decided against it because that the single shot in this video is very fluid and appropriate. 400 BLOWS "The Man Who Danced Himself to Death" live in Dallas on June 13th, 2007. (FYI, they are playing PASTIME on June 29th as they head back to the west coast).

400 Blows preview & review
The first thing to take note of when seeing a show at the Loft at the Palladium on Lamar St., is the amazing view of downtown Dallas, perfectly visible behind the stage and from the outside terrace. On Wednesday evening I went to the Loft to run video for Los Angeles' punk-metal trio 400 BLOWS, who were a month in on their tour with Mouth of the Architect and Amphetamine Reptile veterans UNSANE.
400 BLOWS performance was tight and solid, the best I have seen them play. It has been at least 2 years since I've caught them live and first with this current line-up. Skot's vocals were loud, mean and clear. Ferdi's drumming was completely ruthless and their new guitarist, also named Scott, but with a 'C', has some scandalous moves while he plays. He seems to seductively sway his hips while generating feedback and distortion from his guitar. The entire band was "into" the performance and it showed. They played The Ugly Are so Beautiful, The Root of Our Nature, The Beauty of Internal Darkness, World's Largest Minature, ? something new ?, Premature Burial, The Sore Thumb and Electric Wilderness. Since they prefer small rooms, I am even more excited for their upcoming show at Pastime Tavern. I was not able to stay for UNSANE, but the 2 songs I heard from Mouth of the Architect, sparked my interest in seeeing them next month at Hailey's opening up for Made Out of Babies.
Be prepared in two weeks when 400 BLOWS returns to Dallas, this time to headline, on June 29th w. Weedeater and Mitra.

There should be a new genre called "Dentronica" = Denton + Electronic. This is just to say Dentron's GHOSTHUSTLER will be opening for Brooklyn's PARTS & LABOR at Pastime Tavern on July 9th. This is a great line-up for any night of the week, but uber-delicious for a Monday. Once again, over by Midnight so the adults can get to work the next day and not be grumpy.
Dwarves video w. some local "suicide girls"
The Dwarves played a surprise show at Trees last night! Actually this would be true if last night was Oct. (or Nov.) 29th, 2004. It's good to know that breasts are shown around throughout the year and not just during Mardi Gras. Can someone name these local wanna-be Suicide Girls? These girls must have been really tossed, b/c I am not sure who would let the aging HeWhoCannotBeNamed suck on their tits. Hopefully by now you would infer, from the above clues, that the video is NSFW.

Thanks to MITRA for this one. I love how everyone participating locally in our "Too Knight Spectacular" on June 29th & 30th are making contributions in some form.
NO AGE's sexy-time VINYL explosion
The two dudes in Los Angeles' NO AGE (ex-WIVES) decided to jack-off each other and the end result was wax. Lots and lots of wax. In the past few months they have released five vinyl eps (four 12"s and one 7") on these labels: Deleted Art (Amsterdam), Post Present Medium (Los Angeles), Teenage Teardrops (Los Angeles), Upset the Rhythm (London), and Youth Attack Records (New York City). I am a vinyl geek, so I thought this was a great project for No Age. Collect 'em all while you can, since they are all in runs of only 500 each. (CLICK IMAGE TO ENLARGE)
EDIT: I forgot to mention the back of all the EPs spell N O A G E . Picture to come soon.

400 BLOWS video (older)
This old footage I shot back in March 2005 features 400 BLOWS' original line-up. Supposedly Christian's (the guitarist) replacement was his own brother, scott!

Eat Avery's Bones has been added to the July 20th Johnis' Birthday Extravaganza at Monkey Bar. She-Dick is still headlining. One more TBA. Intially I was only going to have one band (She-Dick) and I was going to dj, but an old friend is coming in town, so I would rather book more bands/djs, make it crazy-fun, so I can hang out with her and everybody else as much as possible that night.
And it's my friggin' birthday, so BRING GIFTS. Seriously, show some goddamn class and respect and bring presents to a fuckin' birthday party. You get two bands and one dj for free, so cave-in and buy me something. AND NO, I DO NOT WANT "DRINKS", besides having an open tab at Monkey Bar, I would geniuinely like to receive presents for my birthday. Go figure.
