A Few Good Shows: 10/14/11
October 14, 2011
I apologize for the lack of posts this week, I’ve been working, finding a new place to live, and generally sorting out major life things. But I found a great new place to live that’s affordable and literally two blocks from 5 points, so I’m happy.
This weekend is looking pretty busy with lots of good shows going down:
FRIDAY:
Vitalic Noise presents CRAVE at the Wine Loft. I will be once again guest DJing at this FREE weekly dance party. We have good drink deals and sexy people, so come on down to the Gulch tonight! 10pm-3am, 21+ Dress code: No ballcaps, no shorts
Kindercastle, Codaphonic, Shaboi @ The 5 Spot. 9pm $5 21+

A Few Good Shows: 9/30/11, Glossary has a new record
September 30, 2011
If this promo video for Glossary‘s new album Long Live All Of Us featuring bassist Bingham Barnes bustin’ a move on the Murfreesboro square doesn’t make your day at least 100 times better, then you must not have a pulse. I feel that one might need to actually know Bingham to really grasp the hilarity of this, but if you don’t, it should still improve your life to some degree.
That being said, Glossary made a new record and it’s hitting shelves this coming Tuesday, October 4th. If you’re a local, mark your calendar for their release show October 7th at the 5 Spot.
Here’s what’s going down this weekend show-wise-
FRIDAY:
Nikki Lane album release show w/ Denny & The Jets and the Alabama Shakes @ The Basement. 9pm 21+ $7
tUnE-yArDs w/ Pat Jordache @ Exit/In. 9pm $12
Vitalic Noise presents a special edition of CRAVE/VITAL at the Wine Loft, ft. Lightsover LA, Sam & Tre, Donny West, Dark Sister, and a very special guest. 10pm, $5 cover (this is a joint Vital/Crave so the show isn’t free as usual Fridays are).
SATURDAY:
Wanda Jackson is doing an in-store signing and meet & greet at Grimey’s. 5pm
Wilco w/ Nick Lowe @ the Ryman (sold out, night 1 of 2)
Have a great weekend!

I have respect for all genres of music, but I really just can’t bring myself to like dubstep. It just hurts my brain. But this dubstep/Transformers mashup video I came across via The A.V. Club is pretty great:
