For those of you interested, just thought I'd give a "shout out" that my friend Brandon and I will be spinning some killer tunes along with our guest DJ William Alberque (who used to deejay at Confusion & Temptation at the Black Cat). Anyway, if you're into that whole Factory, 4AD, Creation, Rough Trade, Cherry Red sound, you'll probably be really into the music. We play a lot of obscure older stuff along with lots of newer stuff (with a few classics thrown in), so it's a good night to be exposed to a lot of music that probably hasn't been heard that much...
Here's the details:
"We Fought the Big One" at
Marx Cafe
3203 Mt. Pleasant St NW
