Tonight: Apes And Androids & Sigmund Droid

It's official... Apes And Androids are huge. Tonight they are making their headlining debut at Bowery Ballroom! Pretty fucking impressive. After that head over to Fontana's for the official after party with a live performance by Sigmund Droid. If David isn't too tired maybe he'll hop on guitar for a few songs.

Hitler Really Digs Burning Man

This is pretty fucking hilarious. I guess it makes sense old Adolph is into the hippie shit, he was an artist after all.

Free Ra Ra Riot Show On Thursday

You can thank me later for this, or now - whatever. Come to 70 Greene St. on Thursday for a free party with a live preformance by Ra Ra Riot, a DJ set by Finger On The Pulse, and live art from Art Battles. There's going to be free Black Swan wine and some appetizers all night. So come dance and get drunk - actually it works better the other way around.

RSVP is a must:

t.A.T.u. Resorts To Nudity

Remember TATU, that semi-shitty girl duo that caused an uproar a few years back when they made out in a video? Well since the lesbo schtick doesn't work anymore they took the next logical step - they got naked. Not only did they get naked they actually recorded music video in which they get naked. Nudity in a music video is not exactly new (thanks for the 90's Sir Mix-a-lot) but the actual performer nude is sorta new (wait, did Madonna do this?). So enjoy some boobs during your lunch break - you deserve 'em.

Tonight: MyOpenBar Party

Party in Brooklyn tonight. I hear the Apes are playing, actually I thought I saw it on MOB but now it's not there so who knows. Maybe I was hallucinating... damn delicious moldy bread.

It might be to late to RSVP but I have a feeling you'll get in even if you didn't.

Apes And Androids Are Playing Bowery Ballroom

Brooklyn Ski Club's favorite band has moved on to the big times! On May 30th Apes & Androids will headline The Bowery Ballroom. They just posted the flyer on their MySpace page so I thought I would share - it's awesome. I can't wait to see what kind of crazy shit they do this time!

Kill Death Cab For Cutie!

This is as close to the dream as we're going to come. Apparently Death Cab have some kind deal with Xbox or something. Members of Death Cab will be on Xbox Live playing regular schlubs (yeah you, ya fuckin' schlub) in a Call Of Duty 4 tournament. Too bad I don't have Xbox because getting these douches in my sights and firing would feel great. If any of you people out there take part in this let me know. I want a full kill report by 0800... wait, that's 8AM right? Fuck that, nevermind.

Tonight: Bonde Do Role, Nicole Atkins

• Bonde Do Role After Party @ Europa, 11PM (FREE): Personally I think the party sounds better then the show. There are a few DJs, including Lauren Flax. It appears there's no free booze which is a bummer but the Polish beer at Europa isn't too pricey. **Update: Forgot to mention the show before hand. Death Set is playing too. It's $12.

• Spring BBQ Bash @ The Delancey, 7PM (FREE): Several bands are playing including Nicole Atkins And The Sea. Free well drinks from 8:30-9:30. All you can eat BBQ for $5 (My favorite part). Sounds like a good way to start the night.

Filter Played Mercury Lounge Last Night

By the time I found out that Filter was playing Mercury Lounge it was too late - it sold out. I tried to pull some strings to get in but the fact is I'm not very well connected in the hard rock/metal world. I was super bummed about it. Not that I love Filter, they're good, but a chance to see them at Mercury Lounge just sounded awesome.

Thankfully, MetalSucks got in and wrote a great review. Apparently they played a bunch of old shit including "Trip Like I Do", "Jurrasitol", and "Hey Man, Nice Shot". DAMN IT! I wish they just played the new shit no one cares about. Why did they have to go and rub it in my face like this? Anyhow, read the review and get mad, like me. Oh wait, you're too busy pretending you never liked Filter and they suck, right? You used to love them, stop fronting Mr. Williamsburg.

Tonight: Trainwreck Prom, Naked Ping Pong, Some Show At Studio B

I know everybody is heading to the Black Kids / Cut Copy show at Studio B tonight but if you're not going here are a few other options for fun.

• Trainwreck Prom @ Angels & Kings (10:30PM), FREE: Despite the venues association with douche king (hence the name) Pete Wentz this is a pretty cool venue. Trainwreck is a cool party with lots of free beer (and it's Newcastle!). Tonight this weekly pa rty gets a make over and wears a tux. All types of "extras" tonight, check out the flyer.
• Naked Ping Pong @ 487 Greenwich, 5th FL (7PM), $20: OK this shit is crazy expensive but I promise you it's worth it. I went to this last time and it was super fun. Booze, pizza, and ping pong are included with the cover. There a re some serious players but it's all done in good drunken fun. There was some dude playing with a cell phone as a paddle and kicking peoples asses! The night ended with some crazy one on one, like that Chinese pong shit you see on ESPN 7 at four in the morning.

Tonight: Shatner, UCB, Street Meat, The Kiss Off

• William Shatner will be at the 92nd Street Y tonight. It's $30 so you won't see me there but still worth mentioning. 7:30PM
• UCB is having their Spring Fling tonight. 9:30PM, $5.
• More comedy: Street Meat @ Cake Shop. Free comedy, you'll get your moneys worth... maybe.
• The Kiss Off played my party at Crash Mansion. They were good so make sure you catch them at the Mercury Lounge tonight. 9PM, $10
  

Like Saves The Day? Got $450?

Earlier today somebody in Pennsylvania bought a Saves The Day 7" for $450! Yes, that's right - the emo band Saves The Day. Seriously!?! What the fuck is going on here? Congrats to you little rich girl in Bryn Mawr, PA. You are now the proud owner of "the holy grail of Saves The Day records".
