We really shouldn't say this is an anniversary show. It's more just a reason to have friends over to hang out for a night. Kind of like a slumber party. And while we were tempted to ask everyone to come in nighties, sleep tees, and other assorted pajamawear it's certainly not mandatory although very much encouraged.
Once again, we have brought together some of our closest friends from our great city to play a few songs. And although Humble Jack Gibson (aka Tenlons Fort) is no longer a local resident since moving back to Austin back in December, we still consider him an Angeleno through and through. He'll be coming all the way from Texas just for this show and a special performance at this week's Summercamp (with Castledoor).
Also joining us this evening are the lovely Ema and the Ghosts and Avi Buffalo, both of whom will undoubtedly be performing some new songs from rumored upcoming releases. And, as you might have noticed, we invite these two quite a lot to do shows. If you wrote as many good songs as they do we'd invite you too.
And, finally, Emma Burgess who not only gives arguably the best hugs in the universe but can sure break a heart a two with that voice of hers (just ask her 25k+ MySpace friends). This is our first show with Ms. Emma (who we billed on the flyer as her given name Brandi Emma simply because we've always loved it and we're not-so-subtly hinting that she should go back to using it) so we're honored that she can come by and grace us with her songs slash hugs.
So that's the show. Again, let's not talk about anniversaries, commemorations, or anything involving this silly thing known as la-underground. In fact, let's not talk at all unless of course it's about how much we absolutely love you.
