THEE SWANK BASTARDS (Las Vegas)
THE GRAVES BROTHERS DELUXE (Japan tour kickoff show!)
$8, 21+, nudity likely.
---------------------------------------------
WHAT: Thee Swank Bastards + The Graves Brothers Deluxe
WHEN: Saturday February 18, 7pm - 9:30pm, EARLY SHOW!
WHERE: Make Out Room, 3225 22nd St., SFCA 94110
WHY: Kick-off show for GBDLX return to Japan
SF psych/blues/noise perpetrators THE GRAVES BROTHERS DELUXE are going to Japan for the second time in February/ March.
Japan is chronically bummed out and glowing slightly in the dark after Fukushima. The Graves Brothers Deluxe come to the rescue, spreading dark effing music you can dance to. "Primitive man" invented music to heal spiritual wrong. This is what GBDLX do naturally and what Japan needs; their work is cut out for them.
The send-off show is at the Make Out Room, Saturday February 18, 7pm - 9:30pm. Headlining the show are Las Vegas's THEE SWANK BASTARDS. GBDLX's Stoo Odom calls the band "the world's only math-surf raunch band," and you should too. They've been making a splash in SF in recent years, through passion, pugnacity, and the usual inclusion of topless hula hoop dancer SZANDORA LaVEY. She's Anton's ex-granddaughter-in-law, Karla's ex-niece-in-law, got
it?
The Graves Brothers Deluxe lineup this go-round:
STOO ODOM (ex-Thin White Rope, Subarachnoid Space, etc.)
WILLY THE MAILMAN (an institution unto himself)
JAI YOUNG KIM (Secret Chiefs 3, Species Being)
JON WEISS (Jello Biafra's Guantanamo School of Medicine, Helios Creed,
Horsey)
