 yeah, i was just thinking how i despise them.  
I completely agree.  Just because they're an all-girl band they became popular. Meanwhile, Sahara Hotnights are a much better band; not to mention, insanely more attractive...

Did I have the misfortune to suffer through the Donnas supporting some band at the 930 recently? Or am I thinking of some other all girl pile of crap....and I don't mean the Spice Girls Rhett!!!

I don't remember them being support for anybody recently, I think they headlined the club earlier this year

Probably because there are better "rock chicks" out there.

Didn't the Slumber Party open for Belle & Sebastian?  From what I read about them prior to the show, I thought they were going to be quality but I have to say after hearing them live I thought they were just awful.

Damn. You are right. And I keep missing the Starlite Desperation. Oh well! Bags, I will be in Sarasota which is even less likely to have a show that night...

When Starlight Desperation opened for BMRC at the Recher Theatre in the spring, they did a great cover of Frustration by Soft Cell as their encore.  Good stuff.

This is sort of funny to me. When I saw Starlite Desparation open for BRMC in Baltimore, I mentioned to the drummer that they would be a good opening band for The Von Bondies. Apparently, someone else agrees with me.
 
 Now The Donnas, WTF!?!?!? I cannot stand them! They give girl bands a bad name (no pun intended!). It's such a shame that it isn't someone like the 22-20s, The Archie Bronson Outfit or The Blueskins who would all be so much more appropriate. (Did Kurosawa just say this? I don't know. She and I have been pretty much of the same mind lately. Kind of like Sonick and Guiny are to each other.)

Yeah, you're right.  If there's anything cool going on down in my neck of the woods on the SunCoast, I'll let you know!
