I hope all of you that went to SXSW had fun, got your fill of bar b q, booze and music. This weekend for me is going to feel like a mini SXSW because of some cool shows going on here in
San Francisco. This Good Friday, March 21
st will be the release party and show for
TRICLOPS at Annie’s Social Club.
TRICLOPS’ new album “Out Of Africa” will be out on Alternative Tentacles Records. The Bay Guardian calls TRICLOPS, “Mix Fleshies, Victim’s Family, Bottle & Skulls, shake and then stir, leaven punk fury with psyche tension, allow to rise. Rise to Rock and Roll DOMINATION, that is!” I think that says it all. Also on the bill is
LOZEN (
Tacoma),
TURKS (SF) and comedians Alex Koll and Brent Weinbach in the backroom. Oh yeah, the show is brought to you by
Alcoholocuast Presents! Another Alcoholocuast Presents is happening about 2 miles away at Thee Parkside on the same night. DESPISE YOU, LACK OF INTEREST, VOETSEK, WARKRIME and SAY BOK GWAI! I don’t think I’m going to make it to Saturday after Friday night but as always, I’ll make it through somehow. The show is ALL Ages so bring your kids and your kids kid. HAHAHA!!!!
Hopefully I’ll have recovered from a massive THRASH ATTACK the night before to make it too see BLACK COBRA at The Hemlock Tavern Saturday, March 22nd. No need to explain that two guys could make so much noise and have the capabilities to bring it all together at the end of the song. Here’s a quote from the Hemlock, “As far as classification of their sound, doom metal mixed with sludge and grind and a dash of stoner metal sums up Black Cobra's musical recipe." Also on the bill is SANTHAI (SF/Oakland), LUX NOVA UMBRA EST (ex-Man is the Bastard) and I haven’t had a chance too see neither of those bands. It’ll be nice to get turned on to some new bands and hopefully get some music from them to spin on the airwaves. The Hemlock Tavern is 21 & over so sorry minors (unless you have a good fake I.D.).
I will not have a GIGPOSTERS.COM artist on the show this week but, Billy Perkins interview from last week is podcast’d already online at
THE THRASH ATTACK INTERVIEWS. I’ll have another GP artist on next weeks show. You can always catch my other podcasts at
THE THRASH ATTACK podcast and THE NAKED ROB SHOW podcast. Put 'em in your iPhone or whatever gadget you may have these days. Also, my radio show streams online every Thursday at KSCU 103.3FM. Check it out if you like.
Thanks everybody for all the music and support you have given to KSCU and me. Without you, this world would be my target for disruptive madness I can cause by being annoying. Have a great weekend, be cool and keep sending music for the airwaves here in the San Francisco Bay Area. CHEERS!
