stoogeaphilia, me-thinks, teen-a-go-go, underground railroad, blood of the sun

i went ahead and blogged wednesday night's show on the stoogeaphilia myspace blog thingy, so you can read it there if you're motivated that way.

once again tonight, i'll proudly don the piss-and-fish-sauce-stained yellow jumpsuit of the asian media crew as the lovely me-thinks mount the stage of the li'l wreck room for their second attempt at a cd release party for the double e.p., this time with actual cd's on hand to sell. don't miss it.

sat'day i've gotta go out to arlington, where director melissa kirkendall will be screening the rough cut of the teen a go go doc for the investors. hopefully that means that i'll soon be able to start transcribing interviews for the coffee table book tcu press is gonna pub in conjunction with the flick.

after that, if allah is merciful and fortune smiles, i'll be able to make it to the li'l black dog in time to see the underground railroad open for merkin and addnerim. bassist extraordinaire matt hembree reports that u.r. mastermind bill pohl sez they "_might_ be able to squeeze in a rehearsal on friday night," in spite of the fact that they haven't played since october and their music is challenging enough to make most pickers' fingernails fall off, demonstrating what i like to think of as a nice lack of intensity about success. or something.

sunday, it turns out that the band slots for the wreck room xmas party are extra super double early (first band hits at 7pm), so maybe we _will_ get to hear blood of the sun and honky play after all. in my neck of the woods, b.o.t.s.'s newie is the most anticipated ceedee release of 2007 after, um, goodwin's.
