Lexington Concerts Tonight: Parlour Boys CD Release or Puerto Muerto

January 28th, 2006

I really have no idea how many people from Lexington read my website. But for those of you who do, here’s a preview of the cool things you can look forward to tonight. And if you don’t live in the Bluegrass, then just download the songs and try not to envy us too badly (yeah right).

Parlour Boys Record Release Party
@ The Dame w/The Merediths and Moth (8pm, $5)

MP3: Parlour Boys - Lovers
Lexington dance-punk darlings, Parlour Boys, have been at the center of some big city-wide buzz lately. They’ve gotten write-ups in UK’s major newspapers as well as having sold-out shows with VHS or Beta. So after all this anticipation, it’s time for a spectacular display at The Dame. You might think that Kentucky could never produce some good dance-punk. You might also be wrong. (8pm, $5, 21+)

Puerto Muerto ‘Live Soundtrack’ to Texas Chainsaw Massacre
@ Worsham Theater, University of Kentucky - (10pm FREE)

MP3: Puerto Muerto - Alcohol
After fighting off what I think was a minor case of food poisoning, I made my way to Underlying Themes last night to catch Puerto Muerto. They’re a mellow, yet powerful married couple who play some mellow rock. This song I’ve uploaded is their cover of the Kinks’ ‘Alcohol.’ Tonight they’re providing a ‘live soundtrack’ to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which will be playing at UK’s Worsham theater. It’s both all ages and free, so you’ve got little excuse to miss this one. (I filmed their show at UT. So if you’d be interested, tell me and I’ll upload it)

For anyone who cares, I’ll be at The Dame watching the Parlour Boys rock out. I’ll most likely be standing in the sound booth, playing Tetris on my cell phone. I look like this. Come say ‘hi.’
