Losanjealous Concert Picks: March 26-April 1
PICK OF THE WEEK: Midnight Movies @ Viper Room
Sometimes you have to get out of town to be reminded how good you have it at home. Case in point, LA’s own Midnight Movies. Saw them gettin’ it done at SXSW and came away feeling spoiled by the ease we can see a quality band like them on a regular basis. Catch them before they hit the road with the mighty Blonde Redhead.

Theres a secret show tonite in hollywood. I don’t know who but I know it’s in a small venue and it’s at 10:30pm. maybe someone can help out on this one w/ some detective work.
I’m drawing a blank kid. It’s probably a Fashion Week show. Usually those are at the Avalon or somewhere in Culver City. You never know.
I’ve heard that it’s Dolores O’Riordan @ Hotel Cafe, but I haven’t been able to confirm that yet.
Isn’t she touring Europe?
Hotel Cafe’s website does note “special guest” at that timeslot. hmmmmm.
According to O’Riordan’s MySpace page, nothing is scheduled on her calendar in the next three days (until Barcelona on the 29th), so it’s possible.
I live like 5 min from Hotel Cafe and checked it out. The special guest was Alexi Murdoch. who I would happily pay 10 bucks to see. but, just saw him there saturday, so we punted. Drove by the Virgin store and there was a line all the way pass the Chinese Theatre for the Mika instore. I guess the Verizon commercial spot is working.
Whoops, I’ve got egg on my face now, but at least I had the venue correct. In retrospect, I should’ve checked Upcoming.org’s listing for the show, which mentioned Murdoch. Thanks for the update, Tommie.
Dolores will be in LA May 17 & 18, venue to TBD.

Thanks for the Travis tip. Would’ve really preferred them at the Glasshouse though. I will have to seem them at Coachella only.
I’ve been wondering where you’ve been Frank. There’s also Chris Cornell @ The Henry Fonda on May 11th co-headlining with Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode. It’s for the MusiCares fund the Grammys have. Keep up the good work kid!
Klaxons 4/21 Ex Plex

klaxons myspace, check ticketweb over the next week for tickets.
The show is listed on the Klaxon’s MySpace.
Morrissey presale is up and running…
Password is: GREATESTHITS
$73 for Riverside, $89.50 for Ventura–before fees! Best seats you can pull for The Bowl at this point are $135 in the Terrace.
The presale started at 10am. I don’t know if it’s still going on. If you missed it, there’s the KROQ pre-sale tomorrow.
Jesus and Mary Chain @ Glass House on sale 10am Saturday.
Hot Chip @ The Henry Fonda June 13th!
Morrissey is outta control with those bowl prices. With same amount of money you could buy the encore package for 5 shows at $7 for multiple tix. Can you say Hall & Oates?
For those who don’t have tix to the TVOTR/The Noisettes shows (yay, I use links)…
The Noisettes & The Maccabees @ Troubadour, June 15
Also, Datarock @ Troubadour, June 13
Who’s going to JAMC with me? And any speculation on the special guest?
Special guest is The Icarus Line for the JAMC show. I’m surprised the show isn’t sold out!
“The Icarus Line + more TBA“
