| Brooklyn's Surfbort come to APYC for a Monday night special. |
Goodbye Blue Monday
CoolMom and I will still be in New Orleans this coming Monday, and I'll be missing a couple of really good, free, local shows. I'm not complaining. I mean, New Orleans. Plus, I won't have to choose between some solid bills. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to head out to one or both of these, have a great time, and tell me what I missed the next time you see me.
Little Dickman Records Presents: Surfbort, Darkwing, The Off White at Asbury Park Yacht Club, 8pm, FREE
I saw Brooklyn's Surfbort at SXSW. They played an early, indoor set at Cheer Up Charlie's in Austin. They call themselves SLIMY ICE-CREEEM LICKIN FILTH ROCK, and that just about sums it up. Vocalist Dani Miller is a weird, wild force of nature; and -- rounded out by our friends Darkwing and The Off White -- it should be a pretty interesting evening at the Yacht Club to say the least.
Happy Mondays: Dentist, Beams, Fun While You Wait at Wonder Bar, 8pm, FREE
Dentist are back at Happy Mondays this coming week. They'll be joined by Toronto's Beams and Freehold's Fun While You Wait on an eclectic bill that mixes Dentist's 90s and surf-influenced rock, with Beams's dark psych folk, and Fun While You Wait's ukulele-fronted pop.
My love for Dentist is well-documented here. Beams bring seven members, a singing saw, and the experience of having recorded their last EP with John McEntire (Yo La Tengo, Stereolab, Broken Social Scene). Fun While You Wait deliver upbeat folk pop fronted by Devon Moore's ukulele and soulful voice.
So, I don't want to hear any crap about how it's a school night or you have work in the morning. Free music. Cheap beer. Toughen up.
