The 3rd band for Craig's b-day house show on 11/29 is...
Craig Powell
As promised, I can now announce the 3rd band who'll be playing at my '29 on
the 29th' b-day house show!!
and that band is Durham's own...
*Dan Melchior und Das Menace!!! *
DAN MELCHIOR und DAS MENACE -- the most recent addition to the bill, are a
band I've been waiting to see for quite a while! I couldn't ask for a cooler
b-day present than having them play here at the house...They haven't played
in Durham in a few years but in the meantime Dan has been *extremely*
prolific, having released dozens of songs - *all* of them top notch lo-fi
garage rock + psych-pop nuggets! He moved to Durham after living in the UK
most of his life, where he often collaborated with Billy Childish and Holly
Golightly amongst other garage rock badasses...

SPIDER BAGS --- KILLED IT here at the house when they played with Thomas
Function and Yussuf Jerusalem a little while back. If you missed out then,
you now have been granted a MAGICAL B-DAY OPPORTUNITY to witness the fucking
unbelievable rock'n'roll superpowers that this band conjures up...in my
living room!!! http://myspace.com/spiderbags
GTRS --- are from Houston, and they'll stop off and play this one date at my
house fresh from playing a VICE records showcase in ATL - these boys and
girls are fresh and catchy (think Velvets, Television, Sonic Youth) and yr
gonna flip out i know it i know it...we all are!!!
