Issue 171: scandalous flavor
Lately sinking our teeth into deviant headlines about local baseball players getting jacked on 'roids and final dissolutions of Camelot-like mayoral marriages, we've found ourselves attracted to similar seedy excitement in our social spheres. We can't wait to check out some smut at the launch party for Dirty Found magazine, investigate the hubbub about gender politics in the bathroom, and indulge in some dark Koufax tunes about unbalanced libido. If we stop feeling okay about our lewd leanings, we can clean up our act with a cheery festival of pop music, an art show about the snuggly confines of home, and maybe even save a life. But when the next tasty bit of gossip comes down the pipe, we'll be here to spread it.

The Who quickly outgrew their title of world's greatest all-white R&B band — 1966's nine-minute opus, "A Quick One While He's Away" betrayed a songwriter (guitarist Pete Townshend) with a far more grandiose plan. But no one could have predicted the bombastic rock opera Tommy or the gaudy 1975 movie it spawned. As part of its 70mm Film Series, the Castro Theatre screens erotica auteur Ken Russell's take on this tale of a deaf, dumb, and blind boy (Who vocalist Roger Daltrey) who shows Ann-Margret, Elton John, Jack Nicholson, Eric Clapton, and Tina Turner that he sure plays a mean pinball.

|
|
BART riders may have been shocked to discover last year's Air New Zealand billboards advertising "Defectors Welcome," but Tall Dwarfs fans have likely been considering the move for years. The Kiwi group, helmed by Chris Knox and Alex Bathgate, are kingpins of the New Zealand noise-pop scene, originators of an inimitable fuzzed-out sound, and tireless advocates of lo-fi as a way of life. Their International Tall Dwarfs supergroup testifies to their global influence, roping in Jad Fair and members of the Verlaines, Neutral Milk Hotel, Elf Power, and the Clean; it's tempting to say that without Tall Dwarfs, Guided By Voices would be nothing more than a set of sketches in a teacher's grade book.

Neva Dinova w/ Mayday
|
|
While they share similar zip codes, a split EP, and a mega tour, Neva Dinova have less in common with Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst than the press would have you believe. Singer Jake Bellows maintains a Jeff Buckley-inspired drawl and manages to show slightly less self-loathing. Also playing tonight is Cursive guitarist Ted Stevens — another bluesy Nebraskan — whose band Mayday plays '50s-influenced indie rock that falls somewhere between Roy Orbison and Morricone. (JCF)
What is the distress call for less urgent emergencies than "Mayday"? The eighth and ninth correct responses each win a pair of tickets to the show.

For those on the older side of the 24-35 marketing demographic, there are cultural touchstones held dear — John Cusack's boombox, "nobody puts Baby in a corner," and Johnny Depp's Edward gently extending his scissor hands towards Winona. Tim Burton's masterpiece shot Johnny Depp into the pop stratosphere, provided a fond farewell for Vincent Price, and gave us buff Farmer Jim (Anthony Michael Hall). And it betters with age; the fable-esque world mixes traditional stereotypes of suburbia with something original, magical, and slightly sinister. Don't miss the chance to see Burton and Depp in their early years, as there would be no enchanting chocolate factory and Wintour-esque Wonka without the world of Edward Scissorhands. (LE)
What was actually blasting from Cusack's boombox in Say Anything ("In Your Eyes" was added in post-production)? The first three correct responses each win a pair of tickets to a Scissorhands screening.

Admittedly, we're suckers for the brand of big, chunky power pop doled out by the Eugene Edwards Band. Edwards' obvious love for saccharine hit makers of old — Squeeze, Costello, and Joe Jackson among them — puts him in good company for this, the first night of the International Pop Overthrow. Now in its second year in Fog City, the festival travels north from its native LA with earfuls of hard-knocking backbeats and harmonized backups. Highlights of the festival include Little Yellow Perfect, the Piper Downs, and Preoccupied Pipers. Fans of underdog power pop should be ready to call in sick for a week. (NVB)

Koufax w/ Limbeck
|
|
Koufax may have previously shared a label with Dashboard Confessional as well as sporting two founding members of the Get Up Kids, but they're not your mother's emo band. Based out of William S. Burroughs' adopted hometown of Lawrence, Kansas, Koufax blends a love for classic AM radio pop, lo-fi keyboards, and indie rock guitar stylings with dark-hued lyrics like "There's no more outsides / No more daylight / Good-bye sunshine / They're all replaced," worthy of the Cure in their heyday. CCR-influenced indie/classic rock hybrid tourmates Limbeck open, supporting their third album's release this week. (EC)

Kings of Leon and Jet, two of the bands the 22-20s opened for in 2003,
only wish they had a track as solid as "Why Don't You Do It for Me," an
aggressive, catchy, Southern blues-rock number from the English group's self-titled debut. Released by Astralwerks earlier this year, the album captures some of the unadulterated energy that the band displayed before audiences at Coachella, Glastonbury, and Reading — well before they'd even released their proper LP. At times, the 22-20s evoke the scuzzy racket of Jon Spencer, while on tracks like "Shoot Your Gun," they show the polished-pop influence of the brothers Gallagher. Dream-pop group Marjorie Fair open. (RS)
On which album did "22-20 Blues," the song from which the 22-20s took their name, first appear? The fourth and fifth correct responses each win a pair of tickets to the show.

By going where few documentaries dare to go, Wrong Bathroom takes us on an intrepid romp through the unmentionable territory of wash closet politics through the eyes of people who don't comfortably fit into the cookie-cutter silhouettes on the doors of public toilets. Tonight's proceeds benefit festival submissions for the soon-to-be-released film and offer an advance outdoor screening, gender-bent folk and punked country performances from Frootie Flavors and Dyspecific, and spoken word from Urban Hermit. Late in the evening, DJs Shanestar and Sam Davis (Genderpirates) spin dusty '80s nuggets, and by that time, we expect probable mayhem at El Rio — regardless of which bathroom you choose. (NVB)

After movie and television roles that ranged from the miniscule ("Executive #2" in Big) to the unfortunate (the title role in the short-lived CBS sitcom Uncle Buck), comedian Kevin Meaney has settled into the more logical routine of live standup gigs, late-night TV appearances, and the odd Comedy Central show. For three nights he returns to San Francisco, a city with which he has a storied past: years after beginning his career here in comedy clubs, Meaney was arrested in 2002 for quarreling with authorities who reprimanded him for videotaping a security checkpoint at San Francisco International Airport.

Funny Ha Ha
|
|
Andrew Bujalski's low-budget debut, Funny Ha Ha, will make anyone who's experienced post-collegiate floundering in love and work want to curl up into a ball to avoid facing its truisms. We trail after the protagonist, Marnie, as she tries to find her place in the world like an awkward duckling: getting a temp job, attending pathetic parties, creating unambitious to-do lists. To make matters worse, she has a hopeless (and baseless) crush on her schlumpy but smarmy friend, Alex. The film doesn't succeed by focusing on what's on the horizon for Marnie, but rather by its frank acknowledgement — through stumbling, evasive conversations; stubborn, objectless longing; and mundane, uninspiring interiors — that we, as people, often don't know what's next. (JKG)
Crack us up with your best example of funny ha ha. The seven most side-splitting responses each win a pair of tickets to a screening of Funny Ha Ha.

Event Info | Carol Snow |
|
|
Opponents of language poetry have bellyached for years about the hijacking of words and the creation of a confusing world where "red wheelbarrows" don't necessarily represent things that are red or wheeled. A quarter-century into the debate, poet Carol Snow and choreographer Alex Ketley offer a brief armistice with "Syntax." Their point is both to liberate and re-signify language, and further, to demonstrate dance inspired by the structural patterns within words, as opposed to their meaning. For this task, Ketley has a perfect collaborator — Snow's writing is acrobatic and nimble and her poems are driven by an intensity that could be easily set into physical motion. Tonight, look for "red" to be represented as a broad leap — in both the literal and the abstract worlds. (NC)
Dig out your grammar books, and give us the syntactical hierarchy (in descending units, please). Correct responses four through seven each win a pair of tickets to a performance.

Aimee Mann w/ Kathleen Edwards
|
|
Aimee Mann has quite an enviable following for a performer so commonly pigeonholed as a one-hit wonder from the age of frizzy hair and synthesizers. Her substantial fanbase includes some highly influential friends: Elvis Costello, the Coen Brothers, and Paul Thomas Anderson have all worked to ensure that Mann's voice carries far beyond VH1 nostalgia shows and Totally '80s compilations. Currently touring to support The Forgotten Arm, her concept album about a drug-addicted boxer and the woman who loves him, Mann plays with opener Kathleen Edwards, whose rugged lyricism has inspired an equally devoted, if smaller, cult. (JK)
Which Aimee Mann song lyric inspired the film Magnolia, for which she eventually provided the soundtrack? The fifth correct response wins a pair of tickets to the show.

Event Info | Moggs | Okay |
|
|
It's not difficult to overstate the unexpectedly affecting nasal warble of Okay frontman Marty Anderson. There's magic in the singer's frail coo, and when it's propped up by the charming din of his band (meditation bells, synth patches, and so, so much guitar), he soughs through easy-floating pop infused with the ability to inspire chills. This East Bay quartet brings to mind a psyched-out Beatles and a tweaked-out Flaming Lips, and when they get the off-kilter pop gems from double album High Road/Low Road going, they play like their lives depend on it. (AH)

| SPECTACLE |
Dirty Found's I DON'T Want It Back! Tour
|
|
Found magazine's editors prove themselves not just to be packrats, but also borderline perverts, with the, um, founding of their new spinoff, Dirty Found. Found, the triumph of the keen-eyed and poor-postured, dedicates itself to all manner of detritus rescued from dumpsters and sidewalks — Dear John letters, quirky photographs, schizo grocery lists. Where Found finds glory in everyday castoffs, Dirty Found gets its hands sweaty over the accidental spillover of a world teeming with sex tapes and private Polaroids. So padlock your filing cabinets and take a magnet to the old hard drives, and then hie thee to the Rickshaw Stop for an intimate evening of PowerPoint with Dirty Founders Jason Bitner and Arthur Jones. (PS)
Note: Admission includes a copy of Dirty Found magazine. The Dirty Found Tour also stops by Mama Buzz on Sun 8.14.
Where did Found and Dirty Found editor Davy Rothbart find the inspiration for his production company? The eleventh correct response wins a pair of tickets to the release party.

Cut Chemist w/ DJ Zeph, Azeem, and Egon
|
|
It's been eight years since Cut Chemist's legendary battle with Shortkut, recorded one blazing night at the Justice League and released on CD as Live at the Future Primitive Soundsession Vol. I, helped put Left Coast turntablism on the map. It feels somehow appropriate, then, that Cut Chemist returns to the same venue — now called the Independent, of course — for tonight's scratch-apalooza alongside DJs Zeph, Azeem, and Stones Throw impresario Egon. Cut's recent sets prove that he's hardly resting on his laurels — his show at Barcelona's Sónar festival this summer finished with a dazzling (and risky) climax in which he recorded the audience and scratched up the playback on CD-R moments later. This chemist is a catalyst for jaw-dropping revelations. (PS)

The Court and Spark w/ Kelley Stoltz and Bedroom Walls
|
|
If Steinbeck were around today, he might pour you a bourbon and sit you down for a close listen to this fantastic Americana band called the Court and Spark. Stylistically, the San Francisco quintet's music is more akin to the lonesome lullabies you'd imagine coming out of some dust-covered Okie midway than our fair urban jungle, but that's exactly what makes the Court and Spark so vital. Having been cooped up in a sound-proof building for the last few months working on new material, they're now ready to let us in on their handiwork. Local indie troubadour Kelley Stoltz starts off the evening. (KD)
Which contemporary novelist do you think Steinbeck would be most impressed with? The two most insightful responses each win a pair of tickets to the show.

The big brass sound of legendary Dirty Dozen Brass Band joins forces with Grammy-nominated BeauSoleil avec Michael Doucet, lauded as the world's best Cajun band by NPR personality Garrison Keillor, for what will undoubtedly be a wild afternoon of creole, zydeco, jazz, Tex-Mex, and even Caribbean rhythms.

The Music Lovers w/ Bart Davenport and the Dalloways
|
|
Frontman Matthew Edwards' come-hither croon made the Music Lovers' debut mini-album, Cheap Songs Tell the Truth, an instant cult hit when released by Le Grand Magistery offshoot, Marriage Records. Edwards' quartet — which includes Jun Kunhara from sunny Japanese pop outfit the Nelories — has all the sparkle and bop of bands like Tahiti 80 and the Cardigans, without the dreadfully fey affectations; indie pop with enough moxie to almost be, well, sexy. Influences are worn clearly on sleeves — a mix of moody British balladeers and power poppers among them — but even when the Music Lovers remind us of someone else, they're discerning enough to know how to make songs their own, and make them own us.

Throughout the better part of the '80s and '90s, Marc Ribot's presence in the extended family of New York's Knitting Factory (and, more recently, Tonic) established him as the consummate guitarist for the city's avant-leaning scenes. Ribot's edgy, yet reservoir-clear blues tones flavored many of Tom Waits' seminal recordings as well as those of Elvis Costello, John Zorn, and the Lounge Lizards. Ribot has hardly slowed as a solo artist, sifting through Cuban, Haitian, Belgian, and orchestral classical stylings in recent years. Ribot, an electric and daring performer with the posture of a drunk cab driver, is an infrequent visitor to these parts, so don't sleep on this rare opportunity. (JH)

Everyone feels a discernable sense of serenity when arriving at her nest after a journey through the outside world — prompted by the soothing, familiar smells, the patterns of the floors and walls, and the feeling of security in the space around you. This phenomenon is central to Comfort, a four-person show featuring work by Monica Canilao, Jay Nelson, Ahndraya Parlato, and Gabrielle Wolodarski. The show is a mix of installations and photographs that trigger our sense of homecoming, which can be seen as playful — as in Canilao's childish forts — or poignant — as in the somewhat lonely, uninhabited homes seen in Wolodarski's photos. Be sure to schedule enough time to get cozy with the installations though, because even when it's not yours, there's no place like home. (AH)

LIFE BLOOD: American Red Cross: Givelife.org |

Every summer the nation's blood supply runs dangerously short as regular donors take vacations, and high school and college students — who account for almost a fifth of all annual donations — leave for break. This year, the shortage has been particularly challenging, causing a strict rationing of supplies and increasing the risks for those in need. By presenting the stories of donor recipients at Givelife.org, the American Red Cross illustrates the current shortage in the simplest possible terms: a few minutes of your time can save a life. The site is a hub for survivors' stories, connecting potential donors to local blood drives and giving simple, accurate, and informative information about the process of giving blood. With only a zip code, visitors can schedule donation appointments and read the affecting stories that a simple action can inspire. (NC)

CD REVIEW: Mobius Band, The Loving Sounds of Static |
|
|
Ghostly International
Released August 2005
$11.99 (Amazon)
|
When guitar-based bands pick up a sampler or add a dollop of laptop, sometimes the result can sound forced, but this is certainly not the case with Mobius Band, who easily mesh electronic music and rock. After the excellent taster that was this year's well-received City vs Country EP, Static is the band's sound fully realized — earnest songwriting combined with both live and programmed drums, expansive guitars, and delicate electronic melodies. This formula gels best on the 4/4 album opener "Detach," but it is on "Taxicab" that the dynamics afforded by their multi-genre approach are most apparent: after being tightly restrained under a tip-toeing, minimal drum-machine cadence, the band explodes into a wall of sound, tapping a visceral source — much more Shields than Autechre — that proves static can come from delightfully disparate places. (CJN)
 Which other gloomy post-punk band did the sound engineer for The Loving Sounds of Static also work with? The third and fourth correct
responses each win a copy of this CD.

Recorded at New York University's student-run radio station WNYU, Beats in Space is easily one of the best mix shows around. Host Tim Sweeney's sets range from electro, classic industrial, and warped disco to the glossiest new techno. His acute ear is also finding him gigs around the world and, in turn, more and more big-name producers and DJs are stopping by the studio for a guest slot. This week, check Kompakt's chief lieutenant, Superpitcher, spinning minimal techno and DJ Kaos throwing down a nice mix of old and new electro and disco. Finally, producers du jour Lindstrom & Prins Thomas tap their record crates and emerge with an eclectic set of psych disco. (CJN)
