A few notes on last nights show at The Rhythm Room with Cymbals Eat Guitars, Bear In Heaven and Freelance Whales.
1) Freelance Whales are way better than the 4.2 that P4K gave them last week.

2) Bear In Heaven drummer Joe Stickney is so fucking good it was giving chicks murder boners.

3) Cymbals Eat Guitars should hand out earplugs like A Place To Bury Strangers because they lost half the crowd. I on the other hand had earplugs and loved every minute of it.

Tonight In The Valley: Titus Andronicus | Cymbals Eat Guitars | Nice Nice | The Loneliest Monk

Tonight is a night of tough decisions. It’s not something we are really used to anymore since DVR’s and the internet enable us to watch whatever we want whenever we want. Especially in Phoenix we usually have a pretty clear cut idea of where and what we are going to do, but a few times a year we get a night like tonight... Way too many good shows to choose from!

I am pretty sure I am going to Cymbals Eat Guitars at The Rhythm Room but I am this close to changing my mind and going to Titus Andronicus at Chyro Arts. The Loneliest Monk at Lost Leaf or Nice Nice at The Trunk Space are also going on but not really factoring into my decision menu, not because they aren't good but I have to draw a line somewhere right? I wish I would have had the same policy at the "Wine Party" I attented on Saturday night. I probably wouldn't have these tattoos of Scooby and Scrappy Do on each of my butt cheeks... live and learn right?

Check out some live videos from each band after the break to help you with your own personal conundrum.

Cybals Eat Guitars, The Big Pink & A Place To Bury Strangers Coming to Phx

Two great shows, three great bands coming to Phoenix next year… There are more than that but this post is about the two I just now heard about. Cymbals Eat Guitars, The Big Pink & A Place To Bury Strangers are playing The Rhythm Room next year. Cymbals Eat Guitars with Bear in Heaven on March 22nd and The Big Pink apparently co-headlining with A Place To Bury Strangers. on April 14th. I know this is still a long ways off but time really does fly doesn’t it? Before you know it Christmas will be over and the new year will be upon us all. Like the hookers on the 8 ball of coke I ditched in ladies room trash can as the cops raided the strip club last night.
