Well, I don’t know if this is a cry for help or just a post about something to do tonight. You decide…

So I think I will be heading over to see the Glorytellers and Ida at Cake Shop HERE.
the Glorytellers is Geoff Farina from Karate, I did a post about them HERE. the Glorytellers’ myspace is HERE.

Then I will probably head over to AK (angels and kings) for my normal Tuesday night, however, they are having an open bar there tonight from 1030 to 1130 for Newcastle beer. Once again, I am telling YOU about this cause I am still on my SOBER MARCH and will have some diet cokes or some shit like that.

You have to RSVP for the open bar at Going.com HERE.

And the reason this might be sad is that I currently have no one to go with me to either of these events, so please hit me up if you are a friend or just someone who wanted to say hey to me at either place. Ill be the dude sobbing into his non alcoholic drink. hehe.

I. New MUSIC : Bellavista :

San Francisco’s Bellavista Ready Debut Album for Take Root (Thursday, April 5th, 2007) Whether you call it lo-fi bloozegazer, or dreamy fuzz pop, Bellavista’s debut, self-titled full length is a woozy, sun-scorched guitar record. It captures the band’s raw, stripped down sound on nine reverb-y fever-dreams filled with screeching six strings and big, pounding drums. Produced by the band-members themselves, Bellavista boasts a completely unified vision — the songs are skuzzy, fire-forged rockers, and they follow suit sonically. This stuff is dirty, dank and absolutely mesmerizing. Think Brian Jonestown Massacre, early BRMC, or a fist-pumping Jesus and Mary Chain. Enjoy and disseminate:

MP3: Bellavista – “Temptation By Your Side” .

MP3: Bellavista – “Put It On” .

MP3: Bellavista – “Divided We Suffer”.
