Just Announced

for all you NYC non-hipsters, The Killers are playing an over-priced new years eve show (and really, what isn't over-priced on NYE?), hosted by Carmen Electra. woohoo.
Clap Your Hands Say yeah are also playing a New Year's show in NYC at the lovely Hammerstein Ballroom. Much more reasdonable price and should be playing plenty from their forthcoming new album.
rumor has it that Slayer is booked to play two nights at the 9:30 - Monday 2/19 (currently announced date) and Tuesday 2/20 (currently unannounced). 100% unconfirmed.

why should we listen/see Slayer when they are satanists and homophobes?

Because they're satan's little hotties.

got an IM from a friend saying he'd heard something to that effect. like i said, 100% unconfirmed, but he's always been on the money in the past. only online reference i could track down (or, more precisely, be bothered tracking down) was on this ticket broker's site (and we all know how reliable they are - they're already selling tickets for that night!). just sharing the rumor.

we listen to rock'n'roll, thus making us satanic homophobes too! or satanic homos. i can never remember.

(aside: if having f*cked up religious beliefs and being a homophobe was reason for not listening, this country's political system would fall apart)

presale tickets on sale now!!

Let me know if you need the link…
A Slayer show at the club can only mean one thing… A pre-show caged death match between me and brennser over who gets to DJ those nights. If you've seen Shaun of the Dead you know how it will go down…

i always thought that singer guy would be as gay as pink ink. but then i saw them live and he's totally not. kinda disappointing. but i still think they are great!
The Stooges will hit the road this spring in support of "The Weirdness," highlighted by a March 17 appearance at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas.

Hopefully they'll swing by the area.

I'm anxiously awaiting a leak of the sessions…they're in mastering now.

There better be a dc show, and it better not be at DAR. Over the years Iggy seems to have avoided this area somewhat. Let's hope he doesn't this time around.
