September 16, 2011: First Comes Chumps, then comes Flesh Lights...

Good start to the evening with my beloved Chumps @Trailer Space. Then it was on to the Flesh Lights record release show @29th St. Ballroom with great sets by Creamers, Dead Space, Wiccans, Bad Sports and the aforementioned Flesh Lights!

After the slideshow, you'll see videos of the Chumps ("What You Need", "Punch Mama", "I Do the Things I Do"), Bad Sports ("Can't Stay" and "On Video"/"Face Like That") and Flesh Lights (I need to ask Max for the title).

September 1, 2011: Followed By Static, Rhett & Dean, Melissa Bryan, Angel Babies

Rockin' Thursday @Beerland with Followed By Static, Rhett & Dean, Melissa Bryan and The Angel Babies. I only saw about half of the Angel Babies' set, who I had never seen before, but what I saw, I dug. I wish I'd seen all of it. Fortunately, the rest of the acts made up for what I missed.

Keep scrolling to the bottom to see pictures from the show as well as see/hear some video, including 2 songs by Melissa Bryan - "Days Past Long" and "Rock 'n' Roll Saved My Life Last Night".

There are also 6 numbers by Rhett & Dean (I got a little carried away). I hope Rhett & Dean will help me out and provide song titles. On the videos, Rhett says the titles of the first (I'm Your Fire?) and last (Tears of a Cherokee?) songs, but I'm not certain I heard him right.

Last, but certainly not least, there are 2 songs by Followed By Static - "Nightmares" and "Chub".

Update: Rhett has kindly provided the song titles: ‎1- Never Retired, 2 - eating in eden, 3 - cosmic balzac (name of the bong), 4 - sick of my world, 5 - be somebody, 6 - tears of the cherokee
