L.A. Concert Calendar: January 30 – February 5

By Ron - Monday January 30th 2006

Visit our concert calendar for a full show list, links to buy tickets and our picks.

***Recommended Show of the Week***
She Wants Revenge @ Amoeba
Two former b-boys from the Valley join forces to form a goth rock band? Is this a joke? Gloom rockers are supposed to be mysterious, wear lots of mascara and live in caves. I feel like I could run into these dudes at the Sherman Oaks Galleria Fuddruckers. No really, are these guys fucking with us? Find out Tuesday when they play a free show at Amoeba.

SHe Wants Revenge? Bleah! That singer is directly ripping off Interpol in the same way all those singers ripped off Eddie Vedder with that “cow voice” in the 90’s.
Oscar : 1/30/06 at 10:52 am

Everybody seems to be the rip off of everybody. Weren’t people saying Interpol was a rip off of Joy Division (Which they aren’t). I guess there’s a thin line between influence and ripping off for some people. She Wants Revenge puts on a good show. They are not an Interpol coverband if you payed more attention just to their sound. Just more room for everyone else at Amoeba…..

If your gonna see these guys, out and about, it’s gonna definitely gonna be at the Glendale Galleria Red Robin not the Sherman Oaks Fuddruckers. Both good eateries but Red Robin’s got the fried egg Royal.
Youth Against Facism : 1/31/06 at 11:42 am

After you see (or, more likely, get shut out from) SWR @ Amoeba later today, hang in the area for the annual Rape of the Union protest–
