34 What's Going on in L.A.?

for your next music run you asked me for bands that are playing in your area sometime soon. well, holy shit. how about this...

the Melvins are playing every Friday night in January at Club Spaceland.

yes, this is more my fare than yours, but i urge you to check it out... for me. they are awesome live, and if you stay away from the pit you should have a blast. this coming Friday they're doing the entire Houdini record, and in two weeks they're doing Stoner Witch. i would be there every week, if i could.





as of right now, Club Spaceland has no February listing other than their Friday night house band, which will be Har Mar Superstar. meh.

my next recommendation is Deerhoof @ the Echo, Sat. Jan 29

this should be a lot of fun, too. they are incredibly elastic and prolific. we really only know one record, and i would imagine you'd be lucky to hear much from it, but their latest album Deerhoof vs. Evil comes out this month, i think. from the couple songs i've heard, it's pretty freakin good. here, try one!



this is really all i could find, except for that one which i just texteded you about! wanna go?
