Don Caballero<\/a> is doing an in-store at Waterloo Records<\/a> tomorrow at 5pm and then playing Emo’s later that night. Their drummer is amazing. All you prog rock geeks should check it out. I’m not sure if I’ll make it.<\/p>\n

I’ll take the opportunity to plug my own band’s<\/a> in-store at Cheapo Discs (914 N. Lamar, I’d link their site, but the appear to have forgotten to pay their domain name registration bill) this Friday at 5pm. I’m told there’s usually free beer and it’s almost always a good time. I’m lame enough not to have ever done an in-store at Cheapo Discs, but it’s the original Whole Foods location, so the karma has to be good. I loved doing in-stores at Blondie’s when it was between 5th and 6th. If you find me (the drummer) and tell me you came because of the Metblog post, I’ll give you a free CD.<\/p>\n

Speaking of old-time Austin things like the original Whole Foods, I just got back from the X \/ Rollins Band gig at Stubb’s. Good Stuff. Rollins mentioned Roky Erickson, The Dicks, Butthole Surfers, Big Boys, among others. Everyone was showing their age, but it still rocked.<\/p>\n

What kind of week are we having when we get Rollins, X and a Scratch Acid reunion at Emo’s<\/a> this coming Saturday? I recall my days as a wee impressionable lad at Bill’s Records and Tapes<\/a> in early 80’s Richardson, forever remembering the Biafran bellies on the first Butthole Surfers record, the rainbow colored cover of Scratch Acid’s Just Keep Eating and the cover of most of Black Flag’s albums. Meeeemries.<\/p>\n

Update (08.31.06 10:36 PM CDT):<\/strong> I just noticed that there’s an XLEnt article on Scratch Acid<\/a> in today’s Statesman. The web version has links to Windows Media and Real Audio versions<\/strike> samples of “Cannibal”, “She Said” and “This is Bliss”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
