As an award-winning, white-belted music blogger, my job entails mostly just choosing a small, elite portion of local acts and showering them with unlimited praise while shunning anything outside my bubble of comfort. Admittedly, tongue out of cheek, I do like very few bands upon first listen, and it takes only the slightest, most superficial detail to put a group on my shit list indefinitely. However, if there is a reason to expand my horizons and give these less favored bands another chance, it's not their music, but rather their fans. See, I just can't help but notice that certain bands pull in a few more fly ladies than others.
This is in no way meant to imply that these bands play "chick rock" or that these lovely ladies are in turn genetically predisposed to digging these bands. All I'm saying is that if you want to increase the likelihood of an inspired "missed connection," you might ought to give these local bands a chance too.
Kindercastle
I'll start with the band that initially inspired this post. During their CD release show at Mercy Lounge, it was more than obvious to anyone inclined to notice that the male/female ratio had jumped largely in the dudes' favor as many of these prepossessing vixens were shaking ass with reckless abandon right next to the stage. Granted, further inspection shows most were sporting a giant black "X" on their hands, signaling they weren't quite of age to be bought a drink, but surely they could use a water after all that dancing.
The Lonely Hearts
In case you hadn't noticed, East Nashville harbors more than its share of fetching lasses. Gals east of the river are of a more mature, casual breed than their younger, more studious sisters across town. If you want to find most of them in the same place at the same time your best bet is usually Monday night at The 5 Spot. Otherwise, your luck would best be tried at, say, a Lonely Hearts show. Whether you dig their down-home swaggery twang or consider them simply your local discount Tom Petty, you've got to appreciate the amount of estrogen they pull into a venue. This also goes for other East Side faves like Jacob Jones or Red White Blue. Typically more so the low maintenance, jeans-and-tee shirt type of gals, they will definitely let you buy them a PBR--but that's no guarantee they'll talk to you while they're drinking it.
Autovaughn
It stands to reason already that any show that draws as many people as this one is bound to include more women by default. But c'mon, one listen to AutoVaughn's sleek, FM-ready tunes combined with pretty boy singer/guitarist Darren Edward's vague resemblance to fallen idol Kurt Cobain and it's no surprise that the front row is chock full of young ladies you'd wanna take home to Mom (or just plain take home).

I can agree with Lonley hearts and av. I've never seen kindercastle. Off to check them now and see if I'm stimulated.
how i became the bomb tends to bring out the ladies, I've noticed.
One day I shall star in my own movies done on a 60 dollar walmart camera and steal my mothers belt and wear it like you casio!
fuck. a DVX100 for $60? time to stop boycotting wal mart.
there is a real easy formula here:
songs that girls can sing along to = girls are going to come to the show
btw,
these may be local bands that girls go see, but check out a panic show for some hot ladies
What the hell does "songs that girls can sing along to" mean?
Is Panic a band in and of itself, or do you mean Widespread Panic? Or Panic at the Disco? SO MANY QUESTIONS!!
Duh, Steve. Songs that are, like, in English and shit. And about shit girls like; like doing shit with their hot friends and being hot. That type of shit.
I'd venture to say Parachute Musical falls into this category. But then, they seem to share a big chunk of their crowd with Kindercastle.
I'm pretty sure he's not talking about turn-of-the-century Boston hardcore outfit Panic, cause that band was a total weiner jam.
Vee are von step closer to finding out vith certitude, vhat it is zat makes zee booty shake...
just maybe hot girls are at their shows because HOT BOYS are in the band..?
Parachute musical should change their name to shit sandwich!
That is SUCH a HAWT photo of Darren circa 2005 up there! Vote for AV at www.GetRoadWorn.com!
I'm truly offended by that,they should call it asstank sandwich instead.
But who would I go see to check out some transgender hotties?
BITCHES THAT FUCK GO TO JUKE CLUBS, NOT MERCY LOUNGE. H8 IPOD COMMERCIAL MUSIC.
GET YOUR JIT ON AND JUKE THAT SHIT AT THE SHAKE JUNT GIRL.
SHHHHIT
the blog title is not
"Bitches That Fuck Like These Bands"
It's about where to find HOT girls, not HOSEBAGS.
haha. hosebags.
And I'm not sure if the rest of what you said was even English.
Of course... "Juke" clubs and the music therein could NEVER be considered synonymous with either 'commercial' OR 'ipod' eh?
And how does one fuck white people music?
Would't it be preferable to just fuck white people or how about just fuck people?
Just saying...
But GR8 FAWKINNN COMANTZ!!!@11!1!!
dumbshit
