The Monday Show Low Down (Or "Live Every Week Like It's Shark Week!!")

This is where the intro would go if there was time to write an intro but there's not and it's midnight and I've got a flight in the morning so let's pretend there was an intro here and it was really funny I mean really funny not just like ha ha but HA HA HA man oh how I love to laugh funny, okay?

Here's a look at what this week is looking like for shows:

DECISION
Between Radars To The Sky and The Coral Sea at The Viper Room, The Henry Clay People and The Monolators at The Echo, and The Pity Party, Twilight Sleep, and Karin Tatoyan at Spaceland, Monday night looks pretty fun.

- Matt Hopper, The Old Believers, & The Meemies @ Pehrspace

DECISION
I know that the drinks are really expensive at The El Rey and the parking is kind of a pain in the ass and the security is kind of weird about you standing in the aisle, but it might be worth heading over to see The Black Lips. (Just wanted you to go in w/ eyes open there... Heading to the El Rey is like camping, it can be fun, but you have to prepare for some degree of discomfort.)

If there's anything I know...it's to go see Glass Candy if you're into really old school style electronica. Of course, the supporting acts might not be as good and you'll probably feel like someone with glitter in their hair should be handing you a pacifier, but I'm telling you...if you miss Glass Candy now, they'll never come back. They never come back.
I've also heard nothing but good things about Hang the DJs...erm, at least I've heard they're well dressed.

Saw Film School and What Made Milwaukee Famous(WMMF). We had to leave early, so that's all we saw. Both acts: impressive. WMMF will be here for a week, I guess; I highly recommend catching their show!
