i think the date listed for that Ghostland Observatory show is wrong, anyways they are the best
so this is the JEFF that i'm always reading about here? boy are they awful. wish i was going to be around this weekend to see the features and glossary.
Indie used to mean making good music without label help. Now its just an excuse to glorify shitty music.
Please. Don't try to get all high and holy with your "indie used to mean this but now it means something else" bullshit. It stopped meaning anything when losers like you started saying it used to mean things it never meant.
davido: No, that's a different JEFF.
i hear korean is asian is opening the ricky young show tonight. anybody seen them? good stuff?
korean is asian? is that the name of a band? seriously? that's the fucking stupidest fucking band name i've ever heard.
Where are these 5 Spot show listings emerging from? Their myspace page (aka official site) is barren in terms of schedule.
It's magic! But you can also go to the main Scene music page and search the music listings by venue (or keyword, genre, band, etc.) The 5 Spot is the first one on there.
fringe and experimental night at the basement on monday 11/24
mass at dawn and the native plane band (psych)
rauh, schenker, dumars and sevits (improv chamber jazz)
84001 (drone ambient)
square people (electronic experiment)

RETARDED ROBOT
EYEBALL(1st Show)
THE SYMPTOMS
LOCAL PUNK/THRASH SHOW
ELLIOTT HOUSE
2114 ELLIOTT AVE(off Douglas Corner)
nashville,37204
Show starts at 9:00
Warning these bands will be loud.
Couple of things:
What makes a punk house show 'Old School?' Are you gonna have 40's being chucked from the roof at band members & random civilians and free smack? Because those are required.
I've heard of at least 3 other bands called 'The Symptoms,' none of which hold a candle to The O.J. Symptoms, and none of which are as loud!
Also, Dobey Gray lives on Elliott. That is all.
WE'RE PLAYING 2 SHOWS TOO
NOV. 21ST IN MBORO AT 101 WOODCRAFT 9PM

907 ELVIRA AVE IN EAST NASHVILL 2MORROW AND ITS BEING FILMED 9PM
COMECOMECOME
Doby fuckin' Gray lives on Elliot? HOLY FUCKIN SHIT!!! I'm totally going to stalk once I get outta work...snicker all you want but he is one of the finest songwriters of the 20th century.
Indeed, its true. I lived on Elliott as well and I believe he's the last house on the left before the T, or thereabouts.

You've never seen them.
You've never got lost in the rock that engulfs and involves their audience.
You've never heard them.
You've only read about them.
BUT YOU KNOW they are "awful"!
So it should follow that although I've never met you, I KNOW you're a tasteless asshole.
sorry kara, but i did watch the little embedded video, the whole thing, so i have seen and heard them. and they are awful.
why does every post regarding JEFF have to turn into a "tastes great!"/"less filling!" debate?
will Creamers ever agree to disagree?
for real. we all love something everybody else hates (for me, it's getting shots and oasis), and we all hate something that everybody else loves (for me, it's pecan pie and the doors), and it's okay to say you either hate or love JEFF because they are neither going to quit or dominate american radio based on cream comments. you know?
Everyone loves to talk about JEFF The Brotherhood because people who experience them live usually love them and want to defend them against the people who watch one youtube clip and declare them "awful".
They are a lightning rod, that's for sure. No subject even comes close to generating the number of posts that JEFF does. So that's good in its own way.
Finally, I do remember a lot of people having the balls to admit they were wrong about JEFF after seeing them at the first Cream anniversary party.
