Two Great Shows I'm Missing 2nite

Yo broz, I'm really bummed... all this week I'm working really late and that means I'm going to miss two shows tonight that I very very very very very very very very much want 2 go 2. SAD FACE!!!!!

The first is a VICESCIONGARAGE show. Usually the VICESCIONGARAGE shows are pretty "big" bands that I like but don't actually care that much about... this time I really fucking care about it and GUESS WHAT? It's the only one I haven't been able to go to.

Yep, it's Cheap Time (from Memphis) and Bad Sports (from Denton, TX). I really like Cheap Time (duh) but right now I honestly think Bad Sports might be one of the best bands in the country. Yeahhhhh buddy, not even kidding. I saw them at SWSX at the best show of the entire fest (at some crowded punk-as-fuck house show). They have the best live energy of any band I've seen in a long time and front man Orville is suppppper sexxxxxxxy.

Bad Sports -- Face Like That


Bad Sports -- Too Many People


The other show I'm missing tonight is a performance by Virginia cute psych-pop band Invisible Hand for free at Bruar. I've seen Invisible hand twice in the past year and they have always been amazing and super fun. The show is free and it's a Music Vs. Hunger benefit... so if you go bring some canned food to donate. Here are some tracks from THE HAND'S upcoming new tape release:

Invisible Hand -- Top of the Pops


Invisible Hand -- Future of Music
