I do. And the Venerables joined us this past April.

Hoya is visiting SF that weekend as well - which reminds me: sorry about not getting back to you about the Dodger game. Seeing as how you plan to wear that shirt, I think I'll pass….

Dude, I'm totally there. But, it's supposed to be a secret, so shhhhhhhhh. Does this mean I might be able to finally meet the smacks? or the bedes? Though i think I did meet Venerable at some point.

C'mon Hoya, let's make a forum gathering out of it.

I'm also pretty pumped to be going to the Google happy hour show they are playing on Friday.

Was surprised to hear the KEXP dj say that Exit Clov was doing a gig in Seattle as we were driving the rental car somewhere around Seattle. We opted for the KEXP BBQ the next day, with Long Winters, Devotchka, Ghostland Observatory, and Thee Emergency. Long Winters were so, so good. Put them on your list of shows to see this fall.

Kudos to Exit Clov for getting gigs in cities much cooler than their hometown.

Let us (or at least me) know what you think of Devotchka live. Though I still think they are great, seeing them four times in less than a year was a bit of overkill for me.

Your attendance is a secret or the show is a secret? Because if the show is a secret then they should really stop putting those leaflets and flyers all over the city….

Anyhow, yes, I will be there and Smackette is pretty sure she'll be joining us. Looking forward to meeting you.

I'd also like to be the first to start the rumor that Amoeba is moving to some sort of online sales. I was making sure the Mountain Goats show is next week so I checked their web site last night. I saw what appeared to be a beta of a search for music with an e-commerce component. now the entire web site is nearly shut down. They have a very poor electronic inventory system so I'm not sure how they are going to do it, but changes are definitely afoot.

My attendance is a secret. I don't meet up with the band till Thursday afternoon. I'm glad they are hammering the city. The Clov's manager is in SF, so he should be able to bring quite a crowd. So you know, I am the tall dude with a short hair-cut. And i'll be hanging out with the Asians. :-)

actually, posting flyers to telephone poles and other parts of city property is illegal. i'll be sure to bring "friends" with me to the show. :)

LA is great if you like plastic people, smog, traffic, and hardcore pornography.
