June 6 - Atomic Butter Babes

Atomic Butter Babes are playing a show this Friday and it is going to be oh so glorious. Joining us will be Diabolic Octopus, on tour from North Dakota. They play surf rock with punk influence. Not bad. Also playing are The Rot Aways, who just moved to Portland from Seattle and I am stoked. I played with them last year at Grapedrink? with The Taxpayers and it was a lot of fun. Those dudes are pretty punk, I remember drunkenly slam dancing with them and they spat a lot during their set. I'm pretty glad they are in Portland now. Anyways, its their first show as PDXresidents and the Butter Babes are playing with them again in July. Also, our good buddies The Hand That Bleeds with be there as well as The Rot Away's buddies The Bi-Marks.

Joe Destroy and The Mincing Prissies

Last week, Joe Destroy and the Mincing Prissies laid down some tracks with an awesome fella named Matt (he's recorded lots of great bands, including The Builders and The Butchers). You can catch some of the songs on the myspace:
