I Can't Explain

...as is becoming custom here in Daytonia, looks like Thursday night is gonna be alright. Here's the lowdown...

...over at Pearl tonight, Fab Gear presents a very special show, featuring The Buddha Den DJ hour from 9-10, followed by garage/punk faves The Northwest Ordinance and special guests The Wholigans (The Who tribute band). Afterward, the Fab Gear DJs will be spinning all the best vintage jams you can think of...


...another good option tonight is the show over at Jimmie's Cornerstone featuring up-and-coming sludge purveyors Mountain Screamer. Also on the bill are Gem City Saints and space-age punk of Atomic Johnny...

...if your tastes seem to be leaning a bit more toward the avant this evening, head over to Acid Fever House to check out sludge/funk/experimentalit drum/bass duo E=MC Hammer (from Milwuakee), one-man noisefest Mannequin Hollowcaust (from Tennessee), and the electronic/noise machinations of The Killbot...

Brimstone Howl/Switchblade Serenade/Atomic Johnny-Tonight @ Pearl!

Your good friends at Do Tell Records and Fab Gear are teaming up and totally doing you a favor tonight. Garage goodness will overflow from that most 50s of all Dayton landmarks, The Pearl, tonight and out into the streets of the Gem City. Brimstone Howl (Alive Records) is out on tour bringing their hip-shaking, super-charged, bluesy garage into town. Switchblade Serenade is Dayton's most notorious garage supergroup doused in and dripping with mayhem. Atomic Johnny offers up purist garage with a flair for the theatrical. Before, between, and after the bands, the host of Fab Gear, Jay Madewell, will be spinning your favorite tracks of 60s and 70s garage, soul, french pop, and new wave.

you know where we'll be tonight....see you there!
