Not really "Just Announced", but for maybe the first time since they stopped taking out ads in the City Paper (years) I took a look at the Jaxx calendar, and oh boy...


March 14
ADLER'S APPETITE's current lineup is Sheldon Tarsha on vocals, Alex Grossi (HOOKERS 'N' BLOW, ex-QUIET RIOT) on guitar, Michael Thomas (FASTER PUSSYCAT) on guitar, and Chip Z'nuff (ENUFF Z'NUFF) on bass.
ADLER'S APPETITE, the band led by former GUNS N' ROSES drummer Steven Adler, will embark on a full U.S. tour for the first time ever this winter/spring. The group will perform the iconic GN'R album "Appetite For Destruction" in its entirety along with other classics and some surprises.

March 28
Sponge (a band whose instore I unintentionally walked in on in a suburban Michigan Harmony House...)

April 5
MSG (reunion!)

May 2
Nektar w/ Oblivion Sun (members of Happy the Man)

I know you guys were just waiting for a Jaxx alert.

Iron and Wine is doing a similar thing, except they're not playing DC for it.

I saw a band do the "you pick the set" thing once where you voted on slips of paper when you came in, they totaled them during the openers, then they played the winners. I forget who it was, but I know it was at Canal Club. Definitely a punk band. Holy Moses, why can't I remember?

Saw that...might have to make this show, since I've never seen Hitchcock live and haven't seen O'Connor since she played with Portastatic a couple years ago on the Backstage. O'Connor is pretty terrific, and I wish her last album wasn't so totally ignored by everyone.
