Elefant/Hail Social/Alcian Blue rollcall?

[lyjen]

Anyone?  I'm getting nothing but icy ambiguity from everyone about this show even though I've heard Elefant's quite good live.

[Bags]

I'm going with some friends; I enjoyed the last Elefant show -- Diego's a hoot.  
 
 I'd like to see Alcian Blue, but can't get there that early.
 
 Any word on Hail Social?

[lyjen]

I'm really interested to hear Alcian Blue as well, so I'm going to check them out.  I'm dragging a bunch of co-workers along who have never been to the Black Cat.
 No word on Hail Social, but what I've read looks promising.

alcian blue is excellent ... but a word to the wise, you might want to bring some earplugs, at least for their set. VERY LOUD.

remember, what happens in praha stays in praha, eh, econo?

[thirsty moore]

Yes, it should.  And the Becherovka that I drank there should have stayed in my stomach.
 
 Have a good trip MaLo.  Apparently the tea houses are exceptional if you're into that sort of thing.
 
 Did anybody go out and check the rock band that played at the Czech embassy last week?  My girlfriend and I went.  The music wasn't so hot, but there was free Pilsner Urquell and mulled wine!

[Bombay Chutney]

I may go, but it will probably be a last minute decision.

dude, you need to tell me about these things. . .if only i could find staropramen in the states.

[thirsty moore]

The band that played, Praszky Vyber, wasn't that good.  But it was rather interesting.  The singer was a member of the Czech Parliament after the Communists were ousted.

[thirsty moore]

I haven't had any Staropramen, but I drink Urquell all the time.  They've got it at the store down the street from me.  They used to have it over at the Big Hunt on tap, I believe.

Im going with my mom, so i don't think its going to be THAT wild...but who knows

[thirsty moore]

When I say Tea Houses, I mean Tea like Lipton, not like Kerouac.  Oh, and I meant MaLo earlier.
