Goodnight Daylight, The Virginia Sisters, and Modern Primitives @ MIKE�S TAVERN
Since the moment I saw Goodnight Daylight I was hooked by their southern and indie infused rock. The now sold out self-titled EP can still be heard blasting from my car stereo and I can still be caught singing the words full out bringing laughter to whomever pulls up beside me. Lead singer Jason Magierowski�s soulful southern sound is nothing short of brilliant mixing the stellar musicianship of Peter Cook and Chris Sharp making Goodnight Daylight a band to make KC proud. -jaq

The Architects CD Release Party w/ Vena Amori and Super Black Market @ RECORD BAR $10 cover and includes The Architects new release �Revenge�
For those of you who have seen The Architects live you have a pretty good idea of why the faces of this KC band can be found splattered all over the covers of the Pitch and the Kansas City Star Preview this week of February. For those of you who haven�t had a head on collision with the �hellfire rock� of The Architects, I highly suggest you make plans to be at the Record Bar tonight and get your seat early as this show will have a line out the door. By the way, I had to adopt the term �hellfire rock� from Tim Finn, music critic at the Kansas City Star, because that is a sound that drives right to the core of my soul. Their live show is super high energy and if they were on a Reeces Peanut Butter Cup commercial they would be bantering over who got whose punk in whose rock and roll. So if you are serious about getting your rock on this is the show to take you there.

Jesus Christ Superstar in Concert @ THE BOTTLENECK (Lawrence)
There�s just never a lack of ingenuity in these parts. Seems some local musicians from bands Drakkar Sauna, Split Lip Rayfield, Parlay/Tenderloin, The Shebangs, and more were moved to bring this rock opera to stage. This is not a theatrical performance�.well at least not in the stage musical or play sense. This week they make their debut performance at The Bottleneck, next week The Record Bar. These good hearted folks that are kind enough to bring this masterpiece back to us are also donating all proceeds to the Humane Society, the Kirk Rundstrom Cancer Fund, and Harvesters.
Shows at 6pm and 10pm at The Bottleneck $5 donation
Next week (3/4) at the Record Bar shows at 7:30pm & 11pm

Band Scramble III @ THE BRICK
The brain child of local musician John Ferguson, Band Scramble is back for its third incarnation with the support of The Brick.
What is it this thing called Band Scramble? Local ambitious musicians throwing caution to the wind and tossing their name and paired instrument into the hat. The drawing from said hat constructs the making of new bands. It was a former Band Scramble that gave birth to The Anvil Chorus and Silver Shore.
Musicians: it�s a $5 entry fee and the drawing takes place 8pm sharp
Afficionados: Stay tuned.
Mardi Gras Parade @ CROSSROADS @ 18TH St.
Festivities start at 6pm in front of YJ�s at 128 W. 18th St.
A couple years ago it was this event that gave The Flaming Lips The Key to Kansas City. And why not really, especially when Mayor Kay Barnes does the actual live bestowing. It was a moment only shadowed by a float on top of which its perilous riders cooked bacon and then tossed the meaty strips to the revilers below. Words, nor photos, can give this debauchery due justice. Weather takes no prisoners at this event and if you aren�t costumed you�ll wish you woulda been.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1
Matisyahu @ THE BEAUMONT CLUB
This Hasidic Reggae artist mixes hip-hop, beatbox and reggae appealing to mass audiences and making a convert of everyone who experiences his live show. I was first introduced to Matisyahu working for the 2005 Wakarusa Festival. Prior to last year I had not heard word one of this artist but since his three performances that festival weekend his name seems to pop up in all circles. His release �Matisyahu: Live at Stubb�s, Austin, TX� has been receiving rave reviews and he is due to release his first studio recording �Youth� March 7, 2006. Visit his website to pre-order this release and receive a �Youth� Dual Disc with double side CD/DVD. Also on his site you can check out the new �Youth� video. It�s worth a visit. -jaq

JAQ�S NOTES:
Last Sunday night I made a brilliant decision to go out on a school night. The draw was The Capes, It�s Over and Emma Feel at the Record Bar. Unfortunately, due to prior plans, I got to the show a little late and was repeatedly scolded for missing the garage funk stylings of Emma Feel who apparently tore it up. I did roll in just in time to catch It�s Over put on what proved to be another stellar performance. These boys get better with every show and it seems I am constantly craving another dose of their brand of 50�s and 60�s influenced rock. It was, however, the buzz of the British boys The Capes that solidified my decision to get out and get my rock on. I had popped by Streetside Records on Saturday for their in-store and picked up a copy of their debut release �Hello�. Their catchy pop electro infused sound ringing from the disc commanded me to see them live. I must say is proved to be a wise decision. For a girl who is inclined to lean towards the Americana sound and has made a point of not groovin� on the pop, I am hooked. �Hello� is an album filled with radio hits, which usually sends me running to the hills. In this case, however, it just has me playing those songs over and over again. After seeing The Capes live I still stick to what I said last week in that they leave you feeling a bit like you�ve been riding a high-speed carnival carousel. I found myself bowing out of conversations to run up front and dance to my favorite songs. Yes, after one day spent with �Hello� I already had favorite songs such as �Supergirls� and �Shinjuku Hi 5�. This new found attraction to pop leaves me wondering if in my �older� age my tastes are changing, or if The Capes are an exception to the rule because they are just that good. In any case, I am thoroughly enjoying �Hello� and encourage you head out to Streetside Records and pick up a copy to love and treasure and perhaps make you re-evaluate your entire taste in music. I always did have a thing for Brits.
DI�S NOTES:
Oh readers of excellent and discerning tastes. What makes the tide turn in a rough day for you? Today I arrived home to a nice little package in my mail. Billy Bragg�s �Mermaid Avenue Vol. II�, a gem of record. Partnering with Wilco, and with the blessing of Guthrie�s daughter Nora, Bragg reinvents just a few (the total said to be numbered near 2,500) previously unrecorded Woody Guthrie lyrics to new music. Both Mermaid Avenue I & II were Grammy Award nominees. Bragg, English troubadour by way of punk rock roots introduced a marker in his career this week with the release of �Billy Bragg: Vol. 1� on Yep Roc records. It�s a mighty one with 7 CDs and 2 DVD including 3 disks of rarities. A purchase this girl will make down the road when wealth recognizes my worthiness. In the meantime, and back to that lovely postal service deposit on my doorstep...Last October a friend told me about a new online purchasing avenue. I�ve always favored the trip to the local music store myself where my wanderlust going from bin to bin can equal hours. However, with the recent closing of one and soon to come second homegrown music stores I�ve welcomed this new approach to music purchases. The website is www.yourmusic.com. While it won�t allow you to purchase the latest and newest it�s an excellent way to rebuild your music catalog replacing all those CDs that have gone their own way due to carelessness, sticky fingers, or to purchase those old gems you�ve never gotten around to picking up. For a mere $5.99/month one CD from your queue is sent to you with no added shipping charges. Just make sure your queue is loaded for that $5.99 will come out of your account regardless. Recent purchases: Cheap Trick, The Cars, The Pretenders and now Mr. Bragg. Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming.
