Flier Tuesday (3/3/09)

Welcome back for another edition of Flier Tuesdays and have we got some shows for you. This week we've got some great shows to tell you about. So let's get Started.

First up we've got a couple of shows that are taking place on the same night. On Thursday, March 5th, at El Jardin, performing will be Furious Stylz, the new group consisting of Anticon mainstay Telephone Jim Jesus and the group who just recently did a lengthy stint as Sole's backing band, The Skyrider Band. They will performing along with Egconfused and a couple groups from around my way, Griefshare and Mira La Luz.

Also that night at The Smell will be Megawand, Michael Nhat, Halloween Swim Team, and Not The Government. I just recently did a short write up on Michael Nhat and if you haven't seen this guy perform, from what I've heard it's very unique. Go check out the small feature I did on him and watch the video.

Just a reminder, I mentioned this last week but don't forget to check out Themselves at the Point After. It's going to be awesome regardless of the awful venue. Word of advice to the promoters in The Coachella Valley; stop doing shows at the Point After. It's a terrible place to have shows. I know you feel like your options are few but I 'd rather have the acts that I invite to play as well as the show goers have a great time in a tiny hole in the wall then to have people saying that they couldn't enjoy themselves. You are not doing the artists you invite to play a favor at all. If the band has a bad show it does nothing to help them. Bigger venues do not necessarily mean better shows. Start thinking out of the box.

Lastly, some shameless self promotion. There is a new all ages venue here in the valley and we along with 5000 Photography and Phinds.net are fortunate enough to be promoting them. It is called Red Cove and on March 13th, Halloween Swim Team, Cristopher Cichocki, Alien Soundtracks, and Grrrips will be performing. Grrrips is a local guy doing his first live performance out here in the valley and Cristopher Cichocki is a visual performance artist out of La Quinta. Come and check this show out.

That's it for this week. As always check with the venue for any last minute cancelations or venue changes. Take care.
