FROM OUR DEAR FRIEND SCOTT... DC will miss him dearly:
Well, this is it...I'm moving to Philly on the 20th, and decided to
throw one last party before I leave. 611 Florida has hosted over 60
amazing shows since February 2003, and I have a good one lined up to
close this era. I'll continue booking the Velvet Lounge for a few
months, then my successor will hopefully continue bringing some of the
best fringe music to the city. Of course, I'll be back playing shows
with Kohoutek, Ultimate Vag, PRV Trio, Insect Factory, Kuschty Rye
Ergot, and others. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to cull up
descriptions and biographies; that's what Google's for. Here are the
pertinent details:
Saturday, September 13
611 Florida Ave NW WDC
http://www.claviusproductions.org
4pm (music will start shortly thereafter) - 1am
$5 suggested donation
202-360-9730 for more info
BYOW!
Kohoutek (DC, Music Fellowship)
Max Ochs (MD, Tomkins Square)
The Julie Mittens (Netherlands, Holy Mountain)
Human Adult Band (NJ noise rock)
Hat City Intuitive (CT/DC, Ecstatic Peace)
Sondra Sun-Odeon (NYC, of Silver Summit, Language of Stone)

Insect Factory (DC solo drone guitar)
Teething Veils (DC, of The Antiques)
Layne Garrett (DC, of The Cutest Puppy in the World)
PS: If anyone is bored next Saturday and feels like lifting a bunch of
boxes full of records and CDs, let me know. Help will be rewarded in
some way, shape, or form.

Saturday 9/13 @ Velvet Lounge: Stinking Lizaveta/Ambition Burning/
Nihilitia/Tideland
$10, doors at 9pm, 18+
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++
Sunday 9/14 @ Velvet Lounge: The Fordists/I Love You (Kansas City
experimental rock)/Buck Gooter $7, doors at 9pm, 21+
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++
Monday 9/15 @ Velvet Lounge: Some Velvet Underground w/ DJs Naraku,
Provoke, Secret Chimp, Elephant Bone and others spinning far-out
psych, rock, folk, pop, noise, and other subversive sounds, plus an
improv set by Aaron Martin on alto, Mike Sebastian (DCIC) on tenor and
other reeds, Ed Ricart (PRV Trio) on guitar, Scott Verrastro
(Kohoutek) on percussion. Doors at 9pm, free, 21+. Going-away
parties are kinda lame -- especially when the person leaving isn't
going away very far and will be back quite frequently -- but it is a
good excuse to get wasted and listen to rare records and see a free-
jazz blow-out.

Tuesday 9/16 @ Velvet Lounge: Gestures/Scurvy/The Cutest Puppy in the
World

Due to all the crap I have to pack and the whole process of moving, I
won't be able to promote all of the shows I have booked at the Velvet
Lounge in the coming months. Just pay attention to the website, as
there are plenty of great shows coming up: www.velvetloungedc.com.
And thanks to Jeff Bagato (El Possible), Layne Garrett (Lighthouse),
and Brit Powell (Lighthouse) for keeping the experimental flame going,
and to Beck Levy (Girl Cave), Katy Otto (Girl Cave), the Kansas House,
and other independent venues and houses who host underground music in
the DC area. Fuck H Street and its corporate greed and exploitation
of art. DC needs more alternative spaces!
