UPCOMING TIGHT BROS NETWORK EVENTS:
***********************************
***********************************

Tuesday, April 13- echo lounge
Savath & Savalas
Juana Molina
Nobody
Kopernik
18 and up
9:00pm
$12

Following an extremely successful three years as Prefuse 73, Atlanta’s
wayward son, Scott Herren, returns to the Echo Lounge with his more
laidback Savath & Savalas project. Continuing his journey through
beautiful melodic territories started over four years ago when the
project began. Loosely based around Herren’s own search for his
cultural roots in Barcelona and collaboration with unknown Catalan
singer/songwriter Eva Puyuelo Muns, it evokes the weird colors of Kevin
Shields and Jack Nietzsche, while simultaneously existing as Spanish
folk music. Enveloped by an amazing ensemble of musicians featuring
Susie Ibarra on drums and percussion, Lori Scacco (east devs), Jon
Philpot(bear in heaven, east devs) , Josh Abrams(Town and Country,
Thrill Jockey) and Juana Molina on vocals.

Wednesday, April 14- echo lounge
Liars
Young People
Get Hustle
18 and up
9:00pm
$12

If Performance are the sound of someone storming drunk into a
discotheque and showing off, then Liars are the sound of someone
drinking alone in their bedroom, frowningly arseing around with a
malfunctioning PC, WISHING they were showing off in a discotheque. You
can’t dance to this, you can’t shag to this, you CERTAINLY can’t relax
to this, but by God, it’s fantastic – a gut-churning bass riff that
sounds like the dissatisfied grumbling of some giant malevolent grandpa
with no basic vocabulary, and a shrill vocal pitched somewhere between
‘am currently being force-buggered’ and ‘am still being force-buggered,
but this time by a rhino’ in its levels of pained hysteria.

Deerhoof
MC Blue Bird
Gong fodder
Deerhunter
all ages
9:00pm
$7

Every band, no matter how bad, is a kind of tiny miracle. Those that do
their own songs - especially collectively written ones - seem even more
miraculous. At what point do they decide that their music is "ready for
the world"? When is a song "done"?? Bands like The Magic Band, The
Shaggs, The Fall, Sonic Youth, Polar Goldie Cats, and The Minutemen are
among those who seem to possess this ineffable chemistry. Add to that
list Deerhoof, and while you're at it, put them way up there, because
that's where they belong.

Four Tet
SunBurned Hand of the Man
Leblase
all ages
10:00pm
$8

Ecstatic jazz, folk music and hip-hop have been concerns of Kieran
Hebden’s since he debuted as Four Tet back in 1998. His recent
critically lauded third album, ‘Rounds’ on Domino records, creates a
palette where an ethnic-electronic sound meets with hip-hop production
techniques, and lush samples are arranged with neo-classical beauty.

Over the last several months the Massachusetts-based Sunburned Hand of
the Man has created quite a bit of a buzz for themselves in the
underground free noise/psych/punk/folk/what have you set. They've moved
from a collective who has won over fans from show to show with their
own brand of twisted, free-flowing music to a prominent position within
the cover story of August's issue of The Wire "New Weird America" cover
story. Totally cool.

Saturday, April 24- echo lounge
Squarepusher
18 and up
9:00pm
$15

Like his Warp cohort, Aphex Twin, Tom Jenkinson - aka Squarepusher -
illustrated himself as one of the beat-choppers supreme of UK
electronica. The son of a jazz drummer, Tom Jenkinson releases
jazz-tinged breakbeat material on several imprints including Warp
records and Robert Cheatham's ED recordings imprint. He will fuck you
up live if you show up and hopefully he'll be there too at the Echo
Lounge. Seriously!!

Monday, April 26- echo lounge
Blonde Redhead
18 and up
9:00pm
$15

Kazu Makino is from Japan and Simone and Amedeo Pace (twin brothers)
are from Italy. The band name, Blonde Redhead, comes from a song by the
band DNA, a New York City based group which existed in the early '80's.
A band they all love and more... Life and Music: Bounding them tightly
together to the point of confusing them. This has been Blonde Redhead's
way of life since first meeting. In a restaurant in New York City they
came together by chance, and have been a band ever since.

Tuesday, April 27- echo lounge
Peaches
The Spooks
18 and up
9:00pm
$12

Rock'n'roll how it should be performed live- No one does it as well as
Peaches can. Her vagina is so big it’s omnipresent. It’s everywhere.
I’m up in it right now and so are you whether you know it or not. If
you’ve never seen Peaches live, then keep your opinions away from me
because her pussy is getting so loud that I’m unable to hear you
anymore.
 The unholy music of Peaches will come to Atlanta on this day and there
will be an after party on this night. Bet.

The Spooks feature members of Deer Hunter and the Black Lips. As you
can imagine, debauchery will ensue. I hear they’re planning on going
big for this show. They better go ANIGAV GIB type big for this show.

Wednesday, May 19- echo lounge
eX-girl
18 and up
9:00pm
$10

eX-Girl are a beautiful example of information overload. Jagged 3 part
vocal harmonies, adventurous arrangements, and songs that hook you like
the sucker that you are. Take all of these treats, wrap it in an
ultra-bright technicolor live show with surreal homemade costumes, and
you've got the sensation of being strapped in on an out-of-control
carnival ride that will leave you standing in line waiting for another
turn.
-MIKE PATTON

members, famous and unknown, musicians, artist, dancers, farmers etc.

Gravy Train!!!!
all ages
9:00pm
$7

Three girls giving and one man taking. All touching and rubbing
themselves. Violently striking pelvii. Slapping asses. Humping walls.
Spreading thighs. Bloodying bare feet on broken beers. Stripping
short-shorts down to leotard skivvies. Harnessing air dildoes and
burying them deep in both eager and sheepish boy butts alike.
