YOUR WEEKEND PLANS

Friday, January 30th

This is my last chance to see Theresa Andersson and her effect pedal circus. It's at Hotel Cafe at 7pm, but I think I'll suck it up and go. $10?


After that, I can wash-off the Hollywood stink at Spaceland. LoveLikeFire and Shiloe open for Infinity, which is a female-fronted Journey cover band. Yeah, a Journey cover band at Spaceland. Well, do you have something better to do? Me either! $12 at the door.


Saturday, January 31st

Dance party at Pehrspace. There musical brainweight of the DJs listed on this flier has so much mass that it forces the internet around them to curve. Peep these photos from the last one to get an idea. $5.



Sunday, February 1st

This one is important.

Radio Free Silverlake presents Rock Against HD at Spaceland. This event will raise funds for the Huntington's Disease Society of America. The Rock Against HD myspace page states:

"Huntington's Disease is an inherited neurodegenerative brain disorder that slowly robs the affected individual of the ability to walk, think, talk and reason. Over a 10-15 year period, the individual with HD becomes totally dependent on others for his or her care. Huntington's Disease profoundly affects the lives of both the affected individual and his/her family.

At present, there is no effective treatment and no cure. Each child of a parent with the HD gene has a 50 percent chance of inheriting it. Everyone who carries the gene will develop the disease if they live long enough. HD does not skip generations. Please help us raise awareness and funds in order to provide care and quality services for those affected by HD. Get up and shout! Rock against HD!"

Just imagine if slowly over time your ability to enjoy music and go to indie rock shows fell apart. It's happening every day. Yikes.

The bill is stellar. Fol Chen, Radars to the Sky, and Light FM.

if you do make it to Theresa Andersson (considering parking will be a zoo with Franz Ferdinand playing a block away at Amoeba) you should stick around for Eleni Mandell as she wil be on at 8 just following theresa.
