There's a new venue this week and it nicely, albeit inadvertently, fills in for the quickly defunct party pad, The Captive (somebody musta squealed). Wonder if the Neighborhood Cafe can muster the same kinda buzz/controversy that the outside of its wall did a little ways back there. Looking forward to finding out.
Also interesting this week will be to see if a glam metal crowd can do a better job filling Frank's Place than the previous indie rock shows have.
So let's find out what bands are doing what this week.
NEIGHBORHOOD CAFE: Mike Oz told ya all about it. It's a new venue to check out with My Heart To Joy (rock from Kinsington, CT), Madera's Buffalo Guns, Baja Mexico grindcore with Satie and Fresno's Mane Horse. [7:30 $6 All Ages]KUPPAJOES: Check out indie alt Central Coasters: Lakes, with Briertone and Portlanders, Archeology. [7:30 $? All Ages]
AUDIE'S OLYMPIC: It's confusing, yes, but we're pretty sure the flier is real:
SATURDAY
FRANK'S PLACE: Fans of glam metal will need to find out where this Frank's Place is quick so they can enjoy old favorites like Faster Pussycat and LA Guns. Don't forget local favorite's Shiver Fox and more:
AUDIE'S OLYMPIC: If you like your dudes hanging over blankets or somethin, these dude's are for you! Wait, Fay Wrays will be there? Sweet:
STARLINE: Fern Street will be ruled with a metal fist. Ones doing the ruling: Chamber 7, Death Riders featuring Neil Turbin from Anthrax, Channel, Maddox, Don't Tell Her That. Info:
