The French say: "Electro-mix happy hour" 07.28

i.e., good music & drinking with redeeming qualities such as super-sweet cutting-edge dance performances by a member of CityDance ensemble, Kyra Green.















Come out to Eyebar (1716 I Street NW) on Thursday (pre-Modernist Society!) to mingle with the most charming of all accented-English-speakers, the French.

I asked my friend Sylvain, who is the founder & coordinator of these events, what made an ipod battle (part of the evening's festivites) so special - we've had them here before... To which he replied that this ipod battle was being conducted by "fancy-naked francophones". Judging from his grasp of English, I don't this they will actually be naked, but they will definitely be fancy.

Soiree Carte Blanche

dylanesque. bryan ferry. new music tuesday! 06.26.07

he's an icon.
he is also an icon.
Bryan Ferry, the unassuming perfection of Dylan personification...The Roxy Music fans of the eighties never would have never imagined the hip, dance, stylized vocals could convey political disillusion so well... It's like Ferry is singing in the closet, only to be discovered by us! looking down upon him, crosslegged on the floor with a microphone and a 45. Sheepish and adoring... singing his heart out. Its what we've always wanted. The perfect amalgamation of early eighties synth-rock-sound with the desparate bleat of the beat of sixties frustration and call for awareness. It's two great tastes that taste great together.


DYLAN. FERRY.

DYLANESQUE. available now on amazon

new music tuesday. BAD BRAINS!!!!!

i hate assholes. I hate people that feel so bad about themselves that they have to hate on you. those people are the polar opposite of bad brains.

brains.
you've empowered me since I was a wee lass.
was it 14?? 13? when you came into my life and destroyed every perception of hardcore that I had come to know? Everything strong, everything that couldn't be expressed in words, was felt with a dr. know riff and the knowing, heart wrenching vocals of HR. you soothed me. to this day, I wince at "Youth are Getting Restless, live at the Paradiso"... feeling all of the angst and joy and pain that I knew you had endured; you were my youth and you were my future.

the brains are back.

"Build a Nation is the eighth proper full-length studio album from hardcore punk and reggae pioneers Bad Brains. Produced by Ad Rock of the Beastie Boys & released on June 26, 2007.

Along with being available on CD the album will also be released on a yellow, green, and red multi-colored vinyl record."

for our Philly brethren! TUGBOAT/Photo exhibit 06.28.07

JUNE PHOTO NIGHT OUT / PHILLY 2007!

This Thursday (June 28) at 8 p.m. Ted Adams will be showing a series of photographs that he took aboard tugboat Nancy McAllister over the course of the past year.

WHERE?
It's happening at The Pen & Pencil Club
1522 Latimer Street, Philadelphia

The event is sponsored by The Philadelphia Conference photojournalism organization. For information, check out this link: philadelphia conference

(You don't have to be a member of P&P -- just ring the buzzer in the foyer and someone will let you in. Tell them you're there for the photography event.)



JUNE PHOTO NIGHT OUT
FEATURING TED ADAMS and JOSEPH VAN BLUNK
8:00 PM, Thur., June 28, 2007
This series of photographs taken aboard tugboat Nancy McAllister started as a collaboration between photographer Ted Adams and filmmaker/writer Joseph Van Blunk. In Van Blunk's Second Street neighborhood, long famous for Mummers and politicians, the lore and employment provided by the Delaware River waterfont have created a backdrop for residents' lives since the 18th century. Van Blunk himself works as a longshoreman -- and thanks to his brother Bob, Captain of tugboat Nancy, they were able to shoot this series.

The presentation evokes feelings of life on the river rather than the nuts-and-bolts documentation of operating a tugboat, but also provides plenty of material for those who are interested in boats from a technical perspective. Members of the tugboat crew will also be present to answer questions.

RUN FOR COVER!!! tonight @ the black cat! 06.23.07

let's not recreate the wheel here. The little blurb on the Black Cat website says it best:


“Run For Cover 6
For the sixth year in a row, a handful of DC's rock & rollers unite for a night of tribute and parody. As usual, makeshift bands take the stage to play other people's tunes. But by "makeshift" we don't mean "half-ass."

If past years' sold-out Mainstage shows have been any indication, these bands are good. They've spent months preparing for what has become the Event of the Summer. And - oh yeah - this is gonna be your only chance to catch these single-performance groups.

This year's lineup includes performances by Abbatite for Destruction, Revelation 88, Serious Moonlight, American Psychos, Don't Fear the Reefer, and much more.

Last but not least...the best part of the whole thing? In true DC spirit, the event is always a benefit; this year's proceeds go to Fort Reno.”

ok!

Women Directors at the Oscars

“Women Directors at the Oscars” showcases the fine work of the only three women ever nominated for a Best Director Oscar: Lina Wertmüller’s “Seven Beauties” (June 20); Jane Campion’s “The Piano” (July 18); and Sofia Coppola’s “Lost in Translation” (July 11). Also screening is Cristina Comencini’s “La Bestia Nel Cuore (Don’t Tell)” (June 27), which was last year’s Foreign Language Film nominee from Italy. All but Campion are of Italian descent, modern heiresses to the artists featured in the exhibit “Italian Women Artists from Renaissance to Baroque.”

Finally, ¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Frida! As part of NMWA's Frida Kahlo 100th Birthday Celebration, two most popular- but decidedly different- cinematic accounts of her life will be shown.

6/18 pink martini

pink martini

not just a great band, but an interesting story: the portland, oregon-based ‘little orchestra’ was founded in 1994 by lauderdale, a harvard graduate and classically trained pianist, to play political fundraisers for progressive causes such as civil rights, the environment, affordable housing and public broadcasting. "

but, what do they sound like?, you ask. according to the band, pink martini is "like a romantic hollywood musical of the 1940s or 50s – but with a global perspective which is modern." according to the london telegraph "pink martini are on a mission to bring back romance and beauty." and according to me, they are worth the trip across the river.

Fort Reno 2007!! 06.18.07- 08.17.07

The first time I went to Fort Reno was most likely in 1990 or 1991 and it was probably at the suggestion of my best friend in high school who had a white knuckled grip on the pulse of new music. I've seen many a great show at Reno and was horrified last year at the thought of this nearly 40 year tradition coming to an end. Thankfully, the powers that be decided that the show(s) must go on and beginning this Monday, a little bit of history continues.

TOMORROW! MELT BANANA @ the Cat! 06.12.07

It was 1994. I rememeber the first time I heard Melt Banana. A good friend of mine gave me a tape ( yeah, a cassette) that he thought would rip my skull. The album was called Speak, Squeak, Creak, released on K.K. Null's N.O. label (Tokyo) and on Skin Graft in the US. This was Japanese noisecore before noisecore existed, fronted by an unassuming, petite Japanese girl. She had the stage presence of Godzilla in New York and the atomic, high pitched vocal range of Mothra. This would be Yasuko O. Knowing that I was a diehard Albini disciple, he also threw in that Steve had recorded them. It's a fair bet that my skull was ripped before ever listening to that tape. Needless to say, they blew my mind, both recorded and live. Thirteen years and several albums later, they've never failed to impress. I saw them a couple years ago with Dave Witte (sigh) on drums and it was one of the loudest, most energetic MB shows I can recall.

That's a recipe for happiness, if you ask me. (Oh, did the name of the band give that away already??)
