Held Over By Popular Demand! L.A. Prostitutes Add Whisky Date Tonight!
You do the math: Before we first posted the exciting news of Denmark’s L.A. Prostitutes L.A. debut, they had TWO shows scheduled here in town. They have since added a THIRD SHOW, tonight, Friday Jan. 15, at the WORLD FAMOUS Whisky a Go Go! We are proud to take credit for helping to blow up L.A. Prostitutes.
They say they go on at 7:45 pm. However, the Whisky’s website has L.A.’s own DERAILED listed for 7:45pm. Who will win the covereted 7:45 pm Friday slot at the Whisky? Show up and find out! DERAILED – #5 hit on the search of bands with “derailed” in their name – might have the single greatest band show flyer we have seen yet this decade. Click below to see it in its full size glory.

Making the Rounds Today: “How to Make a Michael Cera Movie”
Alright, even we think this is a bit harsh. Or is it funny because it’s true?
Its creation seems to track back to The High Definite, but it seems to have been removed from that website. A sudden pang of remorse perhaps? At the very least they should have watermarked the image before setting it loose on the world.
UPDATE: This originated at CRACKED!
Congratulations to Huffington Post for making hay out of this and scoring the #1 Google hit as of press time for the phrase How+to+make+a+Michael+Cera+Move.
