Stamen & Pistils tonight in DC
My good friends Stamen & Pistils asked me to accompany them with some live percussion tonight at their show at the Warehouse Next Door in Washington, D.C. In their own words, they sound like: present acoustic based pop, filled out with programmed beats and synths to form a sort of controlled chaos. Please stop by if you’re in the area.
DJs Miguel Carlo and Johnny Metro Tonight
Tonight I’ll be DJing on my home turf with my good pal and bandmate Miguel as we celebrate his birthday — do stop by if you’re in the area.
Green Milk from Planet Orange & The Plums Tonight
Everyone in the DC metro area should check out this show at DC9 tonight:
Green Milk From The Planet Orange (Japanese space rock/psych-prog)
Ostinato (ex Hidden Hand, atmospheric post punk)
The Plums (mem. of Portions Toll, Hat City Inituitive, and Spaceships Panic Orbit)
Vincent Black Shadow
1940 9th Street, NW
I’m calling this entry self-promo since my brother/bandmate is in the Plums so obviously I’m a tad biased but everything I’ve heard about Green Milk (i.e. lots of Other Music praise) has been good so please stop on by.
Trigger Cut Presents DJ Johnny Metro at Galaxy Hut Tonight
I was asked to do a last minute DJ night tonight at one of my favorite local watering holes, Galaxy Hut in Arlington. I’ll be playing tracks from everything I’ve written about in the past few weeks and then some. It should be nice and laid back and not to mention free so if you’re in the area stop in for a pint.
