This Weekend In Athens

No more decent college football till August...

FRI: The Drive-By Truckers continue their stand at the 40 Watt tonight. A band named Glossary from Murfreesboro, TN is opening, but I've never heard 'em. Anyway, you know if you're going cause it's sold out.

So if you don't have tix or it's not your thing, check out the Caledonia where Jeremy Wheatley, Magic Missile, The Folk Yous, and Cut Buffer are performing. Most of y'all are familiar with those people, but the last act is supposedly Magic Missle's Jake Mosely performing yacht rock covers. And where there's Mosely & yacht rock you usually get either Griggs or Gonzalez... possibly both. Stay tuned.

Meanwhile, We Versus The Shark perform songs from their great new EP over at the Georgia Theatre. With them is the Buddy System - a new act featuring Ryan Lewis - and what's listed as Contraband though I think I saw a flyer showing they were gonna be playing Megaman 2. So, we'll see.

For some ass-shakin' fun, DJ Mahogany will be at Little Kings spinning exclusively songs from motion picture soundtracks.


SAT: One more night of the Truckers at the Watt. Tonight, the Patterson Hood-produced Dexateens will be the opening act. Not sure if this night's sold out yet or not, but not that I've heard. Last chance to see 'em before they hit the road for a long while. They don't really believe in down time.

You can also catch Night Moves at the Caledonia, Music Hates You at Tasty World, and/or Christopher's Liver at Flicker.
