The Way Out Club (St. Louis, MO)

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008

We’re playing out first out-of-state show on April 4 at the Way Out Club in St. Louis. The show starts at 10:00. Also on the bill are Red Card Royale and The Saw is Family.

That’s really all we know. If you’re in the 314 (or even 636) area code, consider joining us.

Kryptonite Bar (in Rockford)

Monday, February 4th, 2008

On Saturday, February 16, we’re traveling 85 miles west to play at Kryptonite Bar in Rockford.

Joining us for this rock extravaganza in Cheap Trick’s hometown will be the Venom Lords and First Round Failure. We sincerely hope that Dan from the Venom Lords will take off his shirt for the second consecutive show.

All relevant information can be found on the venue’s web site which is conveniently linked above.

Cal’s Bar (w/ the Getouts and Yarn)

Monday, January 21st, 2008

We will be playing on the floor of Cal’s Bar on Friday, February 22. Also on the bill are the Getouts and Yarn. The show will start around 9:00 and we’ll play second.

Cal’s is located at 400 S. Wells in the South Loop. For those of you who prefer relative directions and know where the Harold Washington Library Center is, Cal’s is five blocks west of that.

Ronny’s (w/ the Venom Lords)

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

We will be playing at Ronny’s Bar/Center for the Performing Arts on Friday, January 18. This show marks our sweet, sweet reunion with the Venom Lords.

Ronny’s is located at 2101 N California Ave. According to the always-reliable MP Shows web page, the show starts and 9:00 and we play third.

Sagittarius B-Day Bash

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

We will be triumphantly returning to the Red Line Tap on November 30th. It should be a lot of fun. It is Erik’s birthday celebration and we will be playing with our friends in Yarn, as well as Hot Heels Records. It promises to be pretty ridiculous. We have new songs, some great covers and a new ridiculous guitar. As usual it starts at 9 and is at 7000 N. Glenwood. See you there……….

Reggie’s Bar (FREE!)

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

We’re playing at the brand new Reggie’s Bar in the South Loop on Friday, October 26. It’s a new venue located at 2105 S. State Street. It’s a free show and Reggie’s is two blocks from the Chinatown Red Line Stop.

In addition to hosting live music, Reggie’s also has a record store onsite. This combination of live and recorded music prompts extremely reputable publications like MetroMix to dub it a “music mecca.

Also on the bill are the Oil Can Boys and Libyan Hit Squad.

(n.b. we are playing in the “music joint” portion of Reggie’s. It’s the smaller of their two venues. If you get there and find yourself in a large room with a burly gentleman asking for a cover charge, go one door north.)

Red Line Tap (w/ Roundeye and Magnafux)

Friday, September 14th, 2007

We’re playing at the Red Line Tap on Saturday, September 29.

Also on the bill are Roundeye and Magnafux.

We’ll have new songs. Brian will have new tattoos. The bar will have $2.50 Goose Island pints.

Festivities will get underway around 9:00. We’ll play around 10:00.

As previous posts have mentioned and this one will reiterate, the Red Line Tap is at 7006 N. Glenwood in Rogers Park. It’s right by the Morse El stop.

The Mutiny

Wednesday, August 8th, 2007

We have a show coming up at the Mutiny on Friday, August 17. We’ve known about this for a while so we have nothing but our own carelessness to blame for only informing you now. Luckily, some of you are subscribed to our RSS feed and will find out immediately.

As with all shows at the Mutiny, this one will be free and there will be large steins of beer available for purchase at remarkably modest prices.

We don’t know a lot about the other bands on the bill. One of them will be The Whore Moans. They’re coming all the way from Seattle, so we have reason to believe that they will be very serious about delivering some rock.

Things will probably get underway around 9:00. The Mutiny is located at 2428 N. Western Avenue, just north of Fullerton.

The Note w/ Hinter and Kemman

Tuesday, July 10th, 2007

We’ve just been added to a show at the Note (1565 N. Milwaukee, in Wicker Park) this Thursday, July 12, at 9:00. We’ll be playing with the bands Hinter and Kemman. Short notice, we realize, but stop on by if you can. One or more of us will give you a big hug.

Red Line Tap w/ I Love Rich, 1/2 Mad Poet, Scenic Route

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

Our next show is on July 28 at the Red Line Tap right here in Rogers Park. We will be joined by I Love Rich, 1/2 Mad Poet, and Scenic Route.

The Red Line Tap is at 7006 N. Glenwood. Cover is $5. Show begins at 9:00. We play second.

This is a very efficient post.
