Jucifer are one of the loudest bands ever. Saw some pics of their amp stacks at Baltimore….Good gravy!
I know; this was the 7th time i've seen them, dating back to 11/16/00 in Austin. I try not to miss 'em when they're in town.

7 times! Your ears will never forgive you haha. I have only seen them twice :-( Both times had a band called Abiku opening.
I might end up at the Wind Up Space Saturday. I've never been there but hey, I consider The Pilgrim, Windhand, Serpent Throne and The Convocation a stacked bill.

If one of those shows was on 1/2/09 with Death By Sexy at the Black Cat Mainstage, then I was there too. There were only about 10 of us there– smallest Jucifer audience I've ever seen.

Yeah, I want to go to that one too, but I'll probably go to the Fortress show at the Lab instead. But I love the Wind-Up space, and if you're hungry beforehand, check out Joe Squared (pizza) across the street.

Yes indeed! I forgot about Death By Sexy. They were pretty good I think. The other time I saw them was at the Talking Head Club at Sonar in January 2009. Abiku, Darsombra and Hero Destroyed all opened for Jucifer to a crowd of about 25 people. Darsombra's set was very trippy and had some weird effect of me.

Anybody else make it to that Paint Branch madhouse? I showed up one song into the set and made it as far as the hallway. Still, they sounded awesome. Looking forward to hearing the full band Chris said they were assembling for bigger gigs.
Hear the album

Im really enjoying that Paint Branch album, thanks Az. This week I am definitely going to A Sunny Day in Glasgow/Dead Mellotron/Other Colors at Golden West on Tuesday. I might also try to catch Blonde Redhead at U St on Friday, but that is up in the air.

yeah, there is a Mellow Mushroom in Adams Morgan. I've never been, despite living closeby. I think they hosted a few shows there during the SweetTeaPumpkinPie fest.
This week for me:
Wednesday - Freakwater @ DC9
Haven't really looked at anything else on the calendar, but that Cal-X/Priests in-store on Tuesday would be easy enough for me to get to.

California X played for something like 15 minutes. One of those rare instances where I could've gone for another 15-30. Sounded awesome though. Priests just got off a longish tour and have a permanent bassist now so they are sounding better than ever.

The two Hilly Eye tracks up on their bandcamp remind me of the last two Magik Markers records.

Morrissey tonight. Or as the President of the San Carlos Institute in Key West called him as he introduced Moz when he took to the stage in 1997, "Morrisson!" That was after we had to sing the Cuban and US national anthems. Most bizarre intro to a rock show ever.
