Hot Hot Heat To Play Canadian Tribute Show @ Grove Thursday
By Ryan - Wednesday May 07th 2008

HEADS UP AND SHOPPING
Hot Hot Heat @ The Grove just outside Crate and Barrel Thu 5/8

In a not altogether unpuzzling turn of events, Hot Hot Heat will play a free show at everybody’s favorite Vegas-sized mall The Grove™, tomorrow evening, for the Canadian Board of Tourism. We’re told the show kicks off at 745 pm (Serena Ryder opens) with British Columbia’s own Hot Hot Heat purportedly taking stage sometime after (HHH’s official website has the show starting at 630pm, further adding to our overall confusion about the affair). Go Canada! You have been duly advised.

Hall and Oates @ Troubadour Thu 5/22
Hall and Oates @ Troubadour Fri 5/23

This Just In: Ample (read: ample) tickets are still available for Hall and Oates, both dates, at the Troubadour. Could it be due to the fact that they are $200 a pop? Say it isn’t so, rich girl. You’re out of touch. Everybody’s high on consolation. I can’t go for that. No can do, maneater. I’m a family man. That said, your kiss is on my list and you make my dreams come true. If you have everything your heart desires - as well as $1,795 burning a hole in your pocket - buy eight tickets today.

One of the more creative members of the highest echelon of Lupine-themed indie bands returns to Los Angeles this July for back-to-back weekend dates at the Fonda. Tickets go on sale a week from tomorrow.

The new as-yet-untitled second album will drop June 17 on Sub Pop. Full track listing here; enjoy one of the tracks below. Following the vein of Apologies to the Queen Mary, any wagers as to which Los Angeles landmark they’ll soon trash in order to properly name the second full-length? (I’m pulling for Apologies to Clifton’s Cafeteria over Apologies to Hollywood & Highland…)

Bon Iver @ Troubadour Mon 8/24

Did you miss him at the Echo last month? Bon Iver (aka Justin Vernon) will perform at the Troubadour August 24; tickets go on sale this Saturday. And while I’m on the topic of tickets on sale this Saturday, Cure @ Shrine general onsale also takes place this Saturday. Get up early, get a coffee, buy your Cure ticket, buy your Bon Iver ticket, go for a bloody mary and a fish taco someplace beachy. Done. Weekend all set.

Note: August 24 = Radiohead Night Two At Hollywood Bowl. Plan accordingly.

So? Did you score tickets during the W.A.S.T.E. presale? (Chatter over here.) If not, I assume you are waiting by the keyboard right now with a cup of coffee. At this time I am not going to tell you that the dual presale passwords are RAINBOW and FISHES, because I want tickets just as bad as you. Can you spell your two garbled keywords faster than me?!?

Good luck out there to all our readers.

The Pity Party @ Sunset Junction 2007

Benefit Rock Shows. What more can be said, really? You get the r.a.w.k, you get the strange dirty-antispetic smell of the r.a.w.k. club, you get the self-satisfaction of having spent a millisecond or two maybe thinking about someone else, and you can have fries with your Dewar’s (cuz specifically I’m talking about The Echo here, sirs).

In Brief: this coming Wednesday, the 16th of April, come have your face melted by Afternoons, The Pity Party (that’s MY band), Karin Tatoyan, and The Franks at The Echo WHILE giving back to the community. Don’t you just love phrases like “giving back to the community”? I mean, what did the community ever give you that you owe it something back, exactly, except a hard time finding parking and disgruntledment at the post office?

If you have no plans next weekend (Sat 19th, specifically) you could do far worse than the considerably sturdy triple billing at pehrspace in Historic Filipinotown where Dover (Ohio), Philly and Pasadena will all represent. Keep your eyes peeled for Devendra-esque warpaint. Couple of mandoladen (mandolin + laden= mandoladen) State Bird tracks for you below (the album dropped in February). Enjoy.
