Well, this weekend is Sunset Junction. The best street fair in LA. 2 days of food, funky clothes, booze in the streets, and music. Tons of music. For a complete schedule, go here. I'm really interested in... Saturday: Gravy Train!!! @ 5pm, The Walkmen @ 6:30, John Cale @ 8pm. Sunday: the Rolling Blackouts @ 1:30, The Gossip @ 5:45, Sharon Jones @ 7pm. Oh, and I'm curious to see how the New York Dolls (rather, the surviving memebers of) will wrap it up on Sunday night.
But of course, there is pre-party action...
I'll be DJing at the Burgundy Room, at 1621 1/2 Cahuenga in Hollywood from 10-2 tonight if you'd like to say hi. It's my last gig for a while, as next week I'm off to BERLIN for two weeks! Posts will be sparse; sorry about that.
Also tonight: Little Radio Presents - The Photo Show at Sea Level Records - 1716 W. Sunset Blvd (Echo Park). Free Booze, great photos and DJs Nikki (Silver Sun Pick Ups) Jason (Warlocks) and Kelsey Short Shorts (Adeline), 7PM-11PM. Check it.
And the Junction ain't enough for you? Try this: Saturday, August 28 - Sunset Junction After-Party with great bands!! Performing are: Black Mountain, Dios Malos and the Rolling Blackouts... at Hanging Jury, 1023 Santa Fe Ave, Downtown L.A., from 10:00PM -- ??* BYOB! (http://www.hangingjury.com/)
Time to get our drink on. Summer's almost over my friends...
