June 9, 2012

First, a plug for the Nova High School Band Showcase at the Vera Project, Sunday, June 10 at 6:30 p.m., $7 cheap! All ages! And great names:  Mago, Pink Pajamas, The Specifics, Robot Mermaids, Wolves in the Walls, and Street Logic. Proceeds benefit the band program at Nova H.S.

Bell Witch
I hope this is a play on bellwether, because that's really clever in several directions. If not, oh, well.

Daddy Treetops and the Howlin' Tomcats
A good old "X and the Y" construction taken over the top. It's not just tomcats, it's howlin' tomcats; it's not just some guy, it's a guy with a wonderful nickname. And I always like a good cat reference.

I Can Lick Any Sonofabitch in the House
So much to like! Complete sentence -- check; extravagant, drunken challenge -- check; actual threat -- probably not.

Megabats
Sounds scary, if you don't know megabats are fruit eaters. Mega or micro, bats are always cool.

White Orange
A rare color in the really large crayon box? A mutant citrus? The latest flavor of Altoids? I plan to go hear these guys tonight at the Funhouse, along with Square Pig favorites Ancient Warlocks and Pouch, plus Antique Scream. Should be a great time!
