bouncey-catchy then...but how does a frisbee bounce? Or is THAT what makes it ultimate?

Yeah, the Velvet Lounge did the same dumb thing on their Free Beer email in the upcoming shows section. In The Ottobar's defense, they did specify in all of their other listings I've seen forever that it was Adam Franklin of Swervedriver. I think the Velvet Lounge has the distiction on their site but not everyone will check there. At least it's a full band rather than the acoustic version from his past.
 
 Are you planning on going? If so, which venue? [/b]
I got fool. (But not as bad as people who went to see Ladytron at Electrotease, and it was just one of the chick's DJing)
 I think I will still go to see just Adam at Velvet Lounge.
 
 Can someone post the Velvet Lounge website.
 Thanks!

 You may also want to check out a band called Toshack Highway, one of Adam's other projects. Nice band but a tiny bit more Rhett accessible.

Good news: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club US tour in the New Year.
 
 Bad news: 5,000+ seat arenas. DAMN! Looks like I'll miss them yet again!!!   :mad:    :mad:    :mad:  
 
 
 TOP ACTS SET TO JOIN THE CLUB!
 
 BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB have revealed exclusively to NME.COM plans to perform a special US tour in the New Year with three of the most exciting bands in the world.
 
 Bassist Robert Turner is the driving force behind the jaunt which he hopes could take place in 5,000 seater-venues across the States.
 
 "The Strokes could possibly be on there," drummer Nick Jago told NME.COM. "We're not sure yet but it'll be along those lines. The Rapture and The Libertines are likely to be on the list. We're just trying to work something out. But we definitely want to tour America again so we can hit the market that we missed last time we toured."

suckers were at the same time energentic and witty.  Seriously, great show. Other than the first time I saw them in Austin, this was the best show I have seen them do...if for no other reason than it was more than an hour.  The previous two occassions at Fletchers and the Black Cat were WAY too short.
