FRIDAY, JANUARY 27

The Safes, Thee Fine Lines, and Seaside Riot @ MIKE�S TAVERN

It�s always a treat when the O�Malley brothers, who make up The Safes from Chicago, pay our city a visit. Once again they are accompanied by a terrific line-up at Mike�s tonight. All bands share that vintage power-pop, garage sound so wear your best dancing kicks. The Safes dropped us a CD of their new songs that we�ve been diggin� this week --  proving that a good thing can get better. The new tunes have more of a pop edge, but still hold onto that rock sensibility. The Safes were my reward a couple years back when I made my way to P. Otts on a Sunday to catch something new only to become one of those bands not to miss when they head our way. -di

Buffalo Saints, Lowry and The Bowmans @ RECORD BAR

For those of you that have made it out to see Jon Wesley Myers (keys) at one of his weekly gigs at Davey�s this month you know what 1/3 of this dynamic trio can do. Myers is back with the boys and ready to unleash their atomic �junk blues� on the fearless Sunday night. We�re proud to call them one of our collective best �finds� of 2005.

Aimee Mann w/ Adam Levy @ LIBERTY HALL (Lawrence)

Aimee Mann has all the IT guys in my Company twisted-up and listening. They quickly reminded me of the �Til Tuesday days (�Voices Carry�) some time ago and directed me to our shared ITunes so I could reap in the brilliance of Mann�s solo catalog. She was brutalized last year at SXSW for her dismissive non-chalance approach in performance�and still her fan base is lively and headstrong. Rock on sister�keep the boys talking come Monday! -di

Asylum Street Spankers @ KNUCKLEHEADS SALOON

This Austin group is unique to say the least. Drawing on every genre of music available mixing pop, rock, show tunes, jazz, Dixieland, poetry, calypso you name it. They started out vowing to be forever unplugged, however, I hear these days they have taken to pluggin� in on occasion. Armed with a wide variety of instruments, harmonica, guitar, upright base, ukulele, banjo, fiddle, and again, you name it. A show filled with wild wit, this group is saucy, and at times, a little naughty. They are currently pimping their new release, �Re-Assembly�, pegging it the �Ultimate Spankers DVD Experience�. The disc provide three hours and twenty-nine songs of concert footage from their 10^th Anniversary show, when twenty-one Spankers reunited. Visit their site and get a glimpse of this crazy bunch. -jaq

FILM:

Hustle and Flow (2005) Out on DVD

This Sundance Audience Winner Award-winner is a great pick for music lovers of all types. I had the opportunity to see it in the theatre at first release, and I must say, this one packs a punch. Hustle is the story of Djay (Terrance Dashon Howard) a pimp with high hopes of breaking out of the Memphis hood by becoming the next big name in Rap. It has all the elements to get you hooked, catchy tunes, phenomenal acting, stellar storyline, humor and heartbreak.

Make it your weekend flick. �jaq

JAQ�S NOTES:

�Lucero: Bright Stars on Lonesome Nights�
Lucero is Ben Nichols (Vocals/Guitar), Roy Berry (Drums), John C. 
Stubblefield (bass) and Brian Venable (guitar)
I finally, yes finally, sat my behind down and popped in the ol� Lucero documentary. So here it is pups, my take on the story of one of my all time favorite bands. Yes, I just laid it out like that, one of my all time favorite bands.

When I write about Lucero, I am always searching for the perfect words to describe them. I usually come up with something along the lines of "they are Memphis punk rock kids 
gone the way of country with raw intensity and drive, playing as if  they are playing for their life." And it seems I was not off base as all of those words are prevalent throughout the film. But where does it come from, this intensity, this drive? In the first few minutes of  the documentary, Ben Nichols (lead singer/guitarist/writer) pretty much lays it on the line and drives it home saying "The guys in Lucero don't have nothin' else going on for them. The four of us, like, this is all we got basically�. It almost makes you sad until you remember how damn talented they are and the fact that they are making their way through life, and makin' a living, pursuing that dream of playin' music. Ben sits holding an Icehouse beer in his beat up white t-shirt looking a bit worn down but adorable all the same. He holds the same qualities in an interview as he does onstage, appearing outspoken but incredibly shy at the same time. The boys all have a shot at describing their sound, but again, it is Ben that pegs the sound calling it "Driving in your car down the freeway type music, or staying up late waiting on somebody to call type music." 
And that is exactly it! Their music so is incredibly movin' and rockin' yet is filled with undertones of sadness. This documentary is as raw as Lucero, no bells and whistles. You can picture a buddy with a pawn shop camera following the boys around shooting interviews and live performance footage in between swigs of whiskey and beer. 
That is definitely the charm of this film, it's not glossed over, it's not shined up, it gives you the feeling you are actually sitting on the couch next to the Lucero boys with a frosty cold one in your hand. I could write about �Bright Stars Lonesome Nights� all night
long. But I would much rather you go rent this little gem, and if you don't have a Lucero recording in your collection, go get one now!!!

 

DI�S NOTES:

News, news, news, lotsa news this week. Sadly, we�re here to report that one of our Kansas City rock-n-roll favs The Ramalamas have left the building. Some members leaving the band to mind other commitments, and others to give rebirth to Kansas City�s former sound force machine The Last of the V-8�s. While we�ll mourn the loss of The Ramalamas we send our best to the V-8�s as they reconvene to rock the masses and release a CD this summer. We also hear that Mr. John Wesley Myers (Black Diamond Heavies) will make an appearance on said record and that�s a very very good thing. Proof again that with the bad comes the good. In other news and to give you a heads up on next week, Sad Dog favorite Jon Dee Graham slated to play Davey�s next weekend won�t be able to make it. I�m sure we�ll be welcoming him back real soon but it�s still gonna be a great night as �Scrappy� Jud Newcomb (The Resentments, Ian McLagan�s Bump Band) will accompany The Gaslights on the bill. The Gaslights will head East the next day for a Northern States tour, and then across the pond to Holland and Belgium for the month of February. Timing will be everything next Friday night as The Brick also offers up a great line-up. The Throttlers are back and in the opening slot for Valient Thorr (Chapel Hill) and Whiskey Boots (Kansas City�s Amy Farrand, and Heather Lofflin � Honeybaby). That night will be a true test of my ability to catch two great shows in one night.

Coming up quickly is the music gathering to the South known as SXSW. Sounds like Kansas City is going to make quite the Austin influx in March. In the coming weeks we�ll let those of you making the trek to Austin know where you can catch our breathren if you need a Kansas City fix in the mix of it all. Note to bands: if you are playing a showcase, SXSW official or not, let us know so we can include you in our �Notes�.

One more thing�..there�s a band playing KC on a hefty bill March 12^th at The Beaumont. They�re called The Tossers and they are one of my all time favorite bands. If you dig traditional Irish music w/ punk rock ethos git yer ticket now! More to come on them at a later date�.

Welcome New Sad Pups!

KEEP YOUR NOSE TO THE ROCK-N-ROLL GROUND!!!

WELCOME NEW SAD PUPS!
Mr. Tim Finn, Pop Music Critic for the Kansas City Star, was kind enough to mention Sad Dog in his article about local music, which appeared in today�s Preview Section. From that mention we attracted quite a few new music lovers requesting to be added to our E-Letter list. We appreciate your interest and thought we would share a bit about Sad Dog to bring you up to speed. Come April 2006, we will have put out Sad Dog every Thursday rain or shine for two years. You will not see every band playing in Kansas City listed on Sad Dog because we are very particular about our live music. We have no formula and no guidelines to what bands/artists fill the pages, they just have to inspire us. And of course, we promote the heck out of local bands/artists in hopes that you will hit the clubs and Support Your Local Live Music! But we don�t stop at local music�we also fill you in on touring artists coming through Kansas City as well. Most importantly, we do not consider ourselves music critics. We are lovers of live music here to tell our stories and hopefully inspire you to hit the clubs and SUPPORT LIVE MUSIC!
Welcome to the Sad Dog family!

Federation of Horsepower has been known to scare other bands out of the genre of full throttle rock in roll. Take to their My Space and have a listen for your self. www.myspace.com/federationofhorsepower. The Chicken Hawks hail from Sioux City, IA and are out in support of their 2nd record, �Hard Hitting Songs for Hard Hit People.� They�ve drawn comparisons to Gun Club, X, and The Cramps and that sounds just delicious. 3 Minute Hero didn�t have to travel far to bring their power pop as the guy leading this trio is �Mike�s� very own Mike Devine.

It�s Over @ THE CUP AND SAUCER
Free and all ages. 10pm � 12:30am
The boys will be unleashing 4 new songs!
If I had a record label these boys would be signed in a heartbeat. They make me jump around the room like a little kid with heir high-energy 60�s and 70�s influenced pop rock that can�t help but lighten the heart and lift the spirit. Don�t get me wrong, It�s Over is fun, but they aren�t just some bubblegum pop group. These boys are solid and smart with intelligent lyrics and catchy tunes. So what if they travel with a huge fish reminiscent of Nemo, just succumb to that which is It�s Over, throw your arms in the air and sing Hallelujah. And most importantly, get a good dose of them this weekend at The Cup. -jaq

I am purrrrrrring like a little kitten, and softly licking my paws, in anticipation of a night spent with some acoustic guitar and three of my favorite KC songwriters.
Tony (Pendergast), John (The Bad Ideas) and Chad Rex (currently flying solo). These boys know how to hit home with their mix the country and the rock. Tony leans more towards the Americana rock sounds of greats Steve Earle and Neil Young, John feeds off of his Outlaw heroes and Chad tends to let what some like to call Alt-Country guide his musical style.

JAQ�S NOTES:
So what is up with this VooDoo venue @ Harrah�s Casino? I occasionally check out their full-page ad in the Pitch, for a giggle, as it seems that VooDoo is the place to go to see just about any tribute band around, from The Beatles to Pearl Jam. One thing is for sure; it VooDoo is the most genre-defying venue in the city. This week their ad promotes Air Supply, electro jam band Sound Tribe Sector Nine, The Bodeans, Better Than Ezra, and some of that pop country that will send me vehemently running away. Whoa! But it wasn�t until I read that Lucinda Williams will be gracing the stage in a rare acoustic performance on March 3 that I decided to actually take the VooDoo seriously. As much as I hate to think of headin� out to The Casino for a show, I cannot stay away from this one. I guess it will soon become that VooDoo that I do.

DI�S NOTES:
On my long list of favorite things to do reading sits right up there at the top and I�m a sucker for a biography. Sometimes it�s the need to live vicariously�the life unlived. Sometimes it�s a need to understand the complexity of heroes. And sometimes it�s simply a guilty pleasure. I picked up the book from the top of the Winter Reading Stack just a few days ago. �Hardcore Troubadour: The Life & Near Death of Steve Earle� (by Lauren St. John 2003). It begins in Nashville 1992 and Earle has sold a plane ticket for $100 which he then spends at a crack house. That plane ticket was to deliver him to his lawyer in New York who was awaiting his signature on a multi-million dollar record contract. The struggle to create his music in a fit of addiction, tumultuous relationships, wanderlust, brushes with the law, leads to his fall and his rise to eventually win a Grammy in 2005 (Best Contemporary Folk Album for �The Revolution Starts�Now�. Steve Earle is not the great music icon, he�s not the voice behind a generation, and he�s certainly not a chart buster. But he�s got a story. His story creates a captivating tug that makes it a hard one to put down. I�m not half way through it and it may damn well be one of the finest music biographies I�ve read. For you rock-n-rollers, it reads like a �Please Kill Me� for the country set�.with significantly more substance. www.steveearle.com

FRIDAY, JANUARY 13
Robb Steele, Bacon Shoe and The Shithitters 10pm @ RECORD BAR
$7 / $5 if you wear a costume (any costume).
If you haven�t had a taste of this bacon cookin�, Kenny Rogers hatin� KC rap trio it�s about time for you to experience Lethal D, Toine and Mr. Ruggles in action. It seems Bacon Shoe has appealed to many more palates than the ones here at Sad Dog HQ as you can find them splashed all over the pages of this weeks Pitch Magazine and donning the cover of the Kansas City Star Preview. As live performances go it is difficult to beat out Bacon Shoe on raw entertainment and humor, especially if you like your live music with a side of bacon. Tonight they will be filming a DVD, so don�t miss your chance to be in the movies.
At 6pm at the Record Bar, there will be a fundraiser for local filmmaker Gary Huggins, whose short feature �First Date� was selected for the Sundance Film Festival, the SXSW Film Festival and the Clermont-Ferrand Film Festival in France. $6 cover

Trivia Riot with Maygun 7-9pm @ THE BRICK

SATURDAY, JANUARY 14
American Catastrophe, Rex Hobart and the Sleeping People and A Burial At Sea @ DAVEY�S UPTOWN
We love that dark and sexy sound of American Catastrophe here at Sad Dog HQ. And tonight, an old friend of Davey�s is back with a new treat, Rex Hobart and the Sleeping People. The Sleeping People include Josh Mobley (electric piano), Paul Andrews (drums), Sam (theramin and congas), Tilden Snow (bass), Bobby DuSoul (trumpet) and Amy Nelson as �Cantina Girl #1�. Rex describes the sound of his new combo as �Spaghetti Western-inspired instrumental pieces with an orchestra.�

Roman Numerals, The Golden Falcons and The Rather Nots @ THE BRICK

Alacartoona, Grand Marquis and The Von Hodads @ RECORD BAR
Join Alacartoon early 8-10pm for a little cabaret and a bite to eat of the Record Bar's fun menu. Late night, Grand Marquis and The Von Hodads take over and what a fine combo that will be. Both bands can shake it up a bit. Whether keyed down or fully loaded the Grand Marquis can take their sound from jazz, to jump blues and swing or as seen recently at a Donkey Show can lean to a dixie persuasion. Whatever way they take it they are always a crowd pleaser recently validated as Pitch Reader Poll favorite - 2005 Jazz category. Another versatile band lies with The Von Hodads. Originally honed as a Western Surf Outfit they've spread their style out a bit to include a lounge flavor by adding some vocals. A great night to see the variety KC local music possesses.

OTHER NEWS:
Recycled Sounds Sale! � Through January 14th.
20% off all purchases of $25 or more on all fully priced items. Sale does not include items on consignment.

JAQ�S NOTES:
My eyes have grown very tired at an unusually early hour and the brain is begging me to move onto a project that takes little concentration. So I leave you with little this eve so that I might make a visit to I-Tunes to purchase Iron and Wine �Our Endless Numbered Days�, The National �The National�, and Richard Buckner �Devotion and Doubt.� Then after that�and I know I sound like a broken record�I am finally going to watch that &*%$ Lucero: Bright Stars On Lonesome Nights Documentary that I have been telling you all I am going to watch for a month now! Be sure, next week I will, once and for all, deliver a full review.

DI�S NOTES:
I�ve been in Philadelphia for the past few days and the only live music experience of the trip was seeing the original Village People. Wanting to maintain our readership I thought better of writing about that experience here. It�s a good story so just ask me if you would like to hear it. As I was writing on Sad Dog tonight I�m happy to see there�s some good choices out there. Through the holidays and other commitments there has certainly been a lack of time to get out and feed the soul. What�s on the menu? Well for breakfast I�ll be having some Bacon Shoe. A few of us were sitting around last week talking about Bacon Shoe, not listening to them, talking about them. A fit of hysterical laughter ensued that will surely be repeated Friday night at Record Bar. Next on the menu I�m gonna have to make a run between American Catastrophe at Davey�s and the late night show at the Record Bar with Grand Marquis and The Von Hodads. Recent performances by both bands have proven it�s not always the same show with these bands. A chance to see �em shake it up on a shared bill sounds quite appetizing. The Litigators on Sunday at P. Otts followed by a holiday on Monday certainly creates a healthy appetite. And I�m going for two deserts this week with Pendergast on Tuesday and the mighty Mr. Jon Wesley Myers on Wednesday. There�s nothing I�d like more than to wrap him up in a little doggy bag and send it to you over the interweb. He�s a music treat that you must catch while we have him in KC � every Wednesday at Davey�s through January.

-jaq

JAQ�S NOTES:
It has been a bit of a chore talking myself out of the house lately. Maybe it�s the chill in the air, maybe it�s the calling of a post-holiday rest and maybe it�s the entire first season of Lost which has recently fell into my hands. However, Wed., Jan. 4th I headed out to Davey�s Uptown to celebrate my friend and Sad Dog partner, Diana�s, B-Day. It was an intimate setting, as only the front room of the bar was open and the lights were low. A festive odor still lingered in the air as a wreath decorated with holly and Old Style beer cans still hung over the stage. Everyone�s spirits were high and smiles seemed to be plastered on all the faces in the room. Then Mr. John Wesley Myers of the Black Diamond Heavies, only in KC for a short month, sat down and hit a few notes on the organ. Joining John Wesley on stage and bangin� the skins was a Sad Dog friend, Mr. Glenn Hockemeier, of local Americana Rock band The Gaslights. Those first notes started the night of raunchy southern blues and sexy ballads. Sidenote, John Wesley Meyers has one dirty, gritty and super saucy sound. They played some Black Diamond Heavies tunes and some covers which were chosen wisely�well, play me some Stones and make it �Sway� and you have me hooked. The boys tore it up, had us dancin� our fannies off and singin� out loud. Oh, and they had only practiced a couple of times leading up to the show. I urge you and encourage you to run down to our favorite little bar on Main Street, Davey�s Uptown, and get a big ol� dose of John and Glen before John Wesley has to pack up his chops and keys and take em� on home. Where you might think being out late on a school night will set you back, it will actually rev you up and jet you right on past hump day!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MS. DIANA AND THANK YOU FOR GETTING MY FANNY OUT FOR SOME ATTITUDE ALTERING LIVE MUSIC.

DI�S NOTES:
Well yesterday was my birthday. The tequila headache of the Ponaks variety still somewhat lingers and I seemed to have injured my shoulder whilst busting a move to the dirty blues sound of Mr. John Wesley Myers (of Black Diamond Heavies) making it a bit difficult to type. I�d like to thank my friends, some Sad Dog readers and one rockin� bartender Mr. Chris Meck for helping me mark the passing of another year. There is only one thing you need to know from me this week. John Wesley Myers will be playing the small stage at Davey�s every Wednesday for the rest of the month - a guaranteed weekly cure for your winter blahs.
