Got really lazy...

So here's a massive update covering a lot of shows.

In all fairness I'm writing this out of a combination of drunken memory and my day planner, starting in early april so here we go.

April 18, 2010
Heavy Trash
The Konks
The Cobra-Matics

TT The Bears, Cambridge

I had the priviledge (sp?) of working the door for this momentous occasion of garage rock. The Cobra-Matics and The Konks are long standing garage rock favorites of boston while Heavy Trash is the current, and amazing, band fronted by Jon Spencer of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and a band from the 80's I can't recall at the moment. This was a phenomenal night and if anyone ever has a chance to see these bands, I suggest that you do so.

Now I also feel the need to know that I will not generally include shows that I personally worked at for the sake of my own sanity.

Horsehands

O'briens, Allston

I recall liking Horsehands a lot. I don't recall anything else about this show.

May 29 2010

The Call Up
Where The Land Meets the Sea
Everyone Everywhere

O'Briens, Allston

Everyone Everywhere play a sorta braid/promise ring kind of rock that I loved and bought a 7 inch of and have lost to the merch band/black hole in the practice space. The Call Up had a reunion show, first of 2, and it was awesome. Where The Land Meets the Sea had their last show and I blogged about it here

Seriously thats all I've got on that one til I watch and edit the video I shot.

June 5th 2010
Jeff Rowe
Coyote Kolb
Tulsa

Harpoon Brewery, Boston

Short and simple, Harpoon Summerfest....got wicked drunk and watched awesome bands. Seriously thats all I've got, again.

June 6th 2010

Lemuria
The Cold Beat
Dan Webb and the Spiders
The Young Leaves

Great Scott, Allston

Atleast I'm pretty sure Dan Webb played this one. I recall The Cold Beat and Dan Webb being their usual awesome selves and Lemuria ruled the friggin earth, as expected. I don't recall much else except I didn't drink this night.

June 19th
Bane
Strike Anywhere
Other bands

Club Hell, Providence

Hardcore is a young mans game but I still loved the hell out of this show. Thats all I can say about it.

June 21 2010
Off With Their Heads
Dear Landlord
The Fake Boys

Great Scott, Allston

Loved it! Seriously all around, had a blast. Got a 7in split with OWTH/Detournement with Care Bears on each side. Great night!

July 19th 2010
Wolves and The Radio
Nothington
Spanish Gamble
Fake Boys

O'briens, Allston

Long story short, left after Spanish Gamble. First half of the show was awesome, second half was said to be awesome too.

So that's all I've got for now, hopefully some new videos and photos will be forthcoming, hopefully.
