Friday Fresgeek: Clearly we need help

All our blogging power is on empty this morning because of all the music and beer and good times last night. So, this Friday's Fresgeek is not going to be up to snuff. Sorry. But we've still managed to get a flier posted.

Beandip is awesome, btw:

We feel bad, you should check on Mike Oz's blog for more going on this weekend like the opening of the biggest BMX park, only ever. Maybe we'll be an X-Games city one day after all:

FrezzzGeek Weekend: Streamlined For Her Pleasure

Sorry, man, sorry. Sorry the Fresgeek will be a little tighter this week due to lack of time, blog-skills and beer drinking (more beer = bigger posts). We did pick out the best for you though.

Would you like to get drunk and Fresgeek?

FRIDAY

AUDIE'S OLYMPIC: So you heard the news about the big death yesterday, right? Yeah, you know, the death of The Same Shape. It's official. Not cool. We were big fans of them and at one point, thought they were going places. Shows how little we know. Well, at least one member (drummer Ian, awesome dude) is in a new band called Strange Vine. They will be at Audie's/Fred's tonight with Inflight Nymphs, San Luis's Still Time and Denver's The Wheel. [Doors: 9 Cost: 5]

Friday Fresgeek: Many Options For Supporting Fresno's Music Scene

WHAT IN HELLS ARE YOU DOING? Not enough gets covered here so feel free to leave a comment about what you suggest a Fresnan does this weekend or come back and tell us how things went for ya - and, as always, it is preferred that you do your reviews, drunk.

Saturday Fresgeek: Take Your Oldass Soul Out Tonight

Saturday nights just don't seem to live up to Fridays nights around here. But, like The Hive says, there is stuff going on tonight.

If you're old or an old soul, the Duke Ellington-less Orchestra is playing at Warnors tonight. Club Fred/Audie's Olympic (when are we going to decide on which name to call it anyway?) is having a rebel rock riot tonight (see flier). But the pick of the night goes to Starline where Fresno's longtime Rock Kings, Six Ounce Gloves, comes out of hibernation to play with Mokshya and Park Layne.

KUPPAJOE'S: What's up with this show at Kuppajoe's? All week we've been seeing a TV commercial, running on KMPH, about it. Since when have you ever seen a TV commercial for a Fresno band's show?

Also playing is Lovers Make Liars and Letterhead. [Time: 8 Cost: 5]

CLUB FRED/AUDIE'S OLYMPIC: Country and Rockabilly (Hey, promoting country, sure, what the fuck!?) will be the theme of the night with Reno's Hellbound Glory along with Texas band Eleven Hundred Springs  and Northfork's own Bret Nielsen Band.

CROSSROADS: We already told you we like these guys on name alone: Robots Love Thrash. RLT will be playing with Mercury Bullet and Trust.

HERO'S SPORTS BAR: Ohh those Creative Fresnans; they sure like to drink. Hey, we do too, especially when they pick awesome places like Hero's Pizza and Sports Lounge to have their blenders at.

WHAT SAY YOU: Feel free to leave a comment about what you suggest a Fresnan does this Friday night (like go see Watchmen) or come back and tell us how things went.

Now how bouts some Kopi introducing Radagun on Great Day:
