Wednesday, November 20, 2013

if I die tonight get thee OOPS to play my whatever!

not that I am dying just my way of telling I like this band tons!
seriously speaking of trash; rounding up number 43 of thee CITY TRASH as soon as possible!
in this issue we will be presenting Ack! Ack! Ack! Records, the PAINT FUMES, the Future Primitives and BRAIN TRAPS!!
the last one on that amazing list will also be playing at the release party of this new upcoming CITY TRASH..
BRAIN TRAPS at the Vera downstage december 7th!!!

with Germans you know it's gonna get ugly!

the Dutch invite..
Uit Duitsland 4 jonge mensen die hun strepen nu al hebben verdiend in het maken van garage punk. Gezien er zoveel kenners zijn op dat gebied geef ik alleen prijs dat drummer Nico een van de drie was bij het Duitse equivalent van the Gories genaamd T.V Cheat! Afijn ze kwamen elkaar tegen in Cologne en na een paar oefensessies waren daar the Brain Traps. Een jaartje bij elkaar, wat shows en het geluk dat ik meer dan present was bij een daarvan en zag dat het garage van de bovenste plank is. Op bandcamp zijn er 4 nummers te vinden die klinken als de perfecte kruising tussen Low Point Drains en Traumahelikopter en ach ze zullen vast ook naar Ty, Mikal en thee Oh-Sees hebben geluisterd. En als de mensen het leuk vinden zal daar ook die avond een speciaal programma boekje gratis te verkrijgen zijn waarin meer valt te lezen over deze Brain Traps genaamd City Trash. Garage dus in de kelder!!

saturday is one crazy wild and action packed day! drinking starts early,
as it's recordstore day, at the local record store Elpee with
the SENSATIONAL SECOND COUSINS and the return of SPIDER RICO on stage.
After that it's some non music related craziness and we end with SPIDER RICO
at the Vera club.
here is a little movie my brother shot probably at the last time
they played and I saw them..2007!

if we still thirsty there is just a little bike ride to take us to the ORKZ
where the JUNOHOOS and BAD VISION are set to play..
or on that same night travel the same fucking distance but in a different direction..
and obviously different bands: RED HEX and BAZOOKA at the Winston Amsterdam..


or stay home? Saturday is next and insane!

Photobucket
lots of everything thing this week, all sort of bands and festivals..
and in the large pool of shit there are a few bands that will be playing
local bars/ recordstores that are worthy of my presence, bands I like!
at least two shows from Earth Control, on thursday at O'callaighs curious how that will mix, the Irish and primitve electro beats...on friday they play somewhere can't really narrow it down to the exact spot but it's in the Oosterstraat, no not Vera and no Elpee.
Photobucket
ofcourse we don't party without the Sensational Second Cousins as things look now we won't be at any party without them playing...
and taking a day off to stand in a sweaty shitty recordstore, they do exist, to see the band who was featured in the last issue of City Trash Mozes and the Firstborn! All of this in Groningen ofcourse.
Photobucket
It all leads into my next post!!!
