Upcoming Show alert!


Keeping in tonight's theme of shameless self-promotion, I'm giving ample notice of an upcoming gig: Killbossa will play The Layover in Oakland Thursday 1/27 as part of Carne Tremula- a monthly DJ night held on site. I think this is going to be a fun one and I'm trying to have the band present a groovy, dance-oriented set plus a new arrangement of Gilberto Gil's Volks Volkswagen Blue I put together. Do it! 9:30PM.

Whoa, busy one this weekend. Saturday Gojogo played the Subterranean Arthouse. It's a great room in downtown Berkeley with an audience that was there to listen. What a nice thing that is. Sqwonk was really impressive- displaying great musicianship and blending beautifully in the high-ceilinged room. Jon and Jeff are putting on the 4th annual Switchboard Music Festival in Spring which promises to be an overwhelmingly impressive affair. Sunday was a raunchier affair at the Argus. Celebrating professor Hudson's birthday, The Cannery played an opening set and I also joined the good man himself on stage for a "There's No Such Thing As A Holiday Set". Good times were had by all.
