Weekender

I don't know what any of you lame asses did for NYE, but I had a blast and I hope you did too. I'm still kind of recovering from it all, but shit, it's the weekend, and I'll totally keep rockin' in 09'. The scene waits for no man, my man. This one doesn't have a lot of commentary as we've decided to pretty much take the rest of this week off, but we'll be rested and ready to go with more 2008 year end coverage starting Monday, so stay tuned.  PS-- we wanted to thank everyone for reading and making 2008 the biggest and best year we've had so far.  Here's to another year of pissing off the people in Dallas who think they run shit:

FRIDAY

Cassettes On Fire/Jubilee/La Dispute/Sohns/Zwounds (1919 Hemphill)

Mount Righteous (Space Studio): We're Sgt. Freedman's cutesy indie band, and we hope our moms enjoy the show.  

Uptown Fridays with Select (Zubar):  Stop by for an education on old school house, disco and all things 90's dance.  

Laptop Deathmatch (the Lounge): Tonight is the Dallas regional competition.  

Broadcast Sea/Decades/Dark Forces (Rubber Gloves)

Warren Jackson Hearne/Wino Vino/Little Rosie's Revenge (Hailey's)

SATURDAY

The Measure/Acts Of Sedition/Sacred Shock/Dark Forces (Exploding House)

Strike A Pose (Green Elephant): This is a collaboration between Unit One and Central Booking to celebrate Select's birthday, featuring DJ sets from Select, Keith P and Vega (Alan Palomo).  Should be the place to be in Dallas on Saturday.    

Damaged Goods/Headkrack/Picnic Tyme/Klick Klack (The Lounge)


SUNDAY

Will Kapinos/Ashley Cromeens/Starhead/Gigi Foster/Jason Ashbaugh (Dan's)

Blueberry Fist/Hope Killed Trust/Alex Atchley (the Lounge)

From reading other local publications big and small it's pretty obvious that Weshotjr has a better, more informed, and more articulate say about things than any other tastemakers around here. Hell, the big publications write about shit they wouldn't have even heard of if Weshotjr didn't tell them it was ok to write about it.

?, that's funny. They started sucking when their current staff started writing about the same boring shit this site does.

5:17 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

but cmon, the reason anyone reads this blog is the inflammatory and controversial opinions and rants by anonymous posters. Like someone used the word tastemaker in reference to this site, that was hilarious. This site is about anonymous jokesters, they are the stars here. It is certainly not because the people who "run" this blog provide any good content, regardless of how superior they think their tastes are, and you can find out about shows anywhere. I've always found people who hold thier preferences to be superior to othes to be petty and tasteless, so i get a laugh from the write ups sometimes, but I wonder how many other sites like this there actually are in DFW anyway, and really for the size of this metroplex it doesnt appear that there are really that many people who pay attenion to this place.
