Tape Deck Mountain "It Goes Down"... Because It's Told To



So very spooky Tape Deck Mountain! And it's not even anywhere close to being Halloween. The song title "It Goes Down" sounds like something Buffalo Bill (Silence of the Lambs) would say as he was getting a BJ. And by BJ I mean "banana jelly", and not the other thing BJ stands for. Or maybe I am. Who knows?

Tonight In Phoenix: Abe Vigoda|Lovvers|Tape Deck Mt|Writer @ Trunk Space

abevigoda_march12_2010_netflyer

Tonight is the first night of our Phoenix version of SXSW, Rampage Fest. It's gonna be at The Trunk Space. It's OUTSIDE at The Trunk Space no less so that is going to be awesome.

Abe Vigoda is the headliner and they are opening up for Vampire Weekend in a few weeks so this is your chance to see them in a parking lot all intimate like. Lovvers is one of the loudest bands I have ever heard when the played The Rhythm Room last year so you might be able to just listen from your house... but don't because that is stupid and lame. Tape Deck Mountain is getting some serious blogbuzz recently and Writer can smoke whilst water skiing.

All four of these bands (maybe) are on their way to Austin for SXSW so if you are like me and NOT going to make it to the only cool sounding thing in Texas this is the next best thing.

Show starts at 6:30 and if it doesn't then you can just drink more at the Bikini.

RAMPAGE FEST At The Trunk Space March 12,13th & 24th



Big Huge Giant Super Announcement!!!

I just got the details on a little something called Rampage Fest! What is Rampage Fest you ask? I am glad you asked because I was going to tell you anyway but this just makes it less rapey. It's a THREE day festival right in the heart of Phoenix at The Trunk Space. Think of it as our very own SXSW even, since I think most if not all of the bands will either be on their way to SXSW (Days 1 & 2) or on their way back (Day 3). Bands like Tape Deck Mountain, The Happy Hallows, No Bunny and The Coathangers just to name a few. You can buy single day tickets for $10 or get all three days at once for $24... What a bargain right?!?! Check out all the details after the break.
