late January-early February, oh nine

D flowers,

Do your hands seem to be swans floating in a lake of fire? No? Fly swans!

Thursday night, January 29, we have an acoustic showcase with Jay Ryan at 7pm and then a new band called Lila Bloom Orchestra at 8:30pm. Lila Bloom has a spooky concept behind their new work. Check out the conceit on their myspace, under "influences".

This Friday night we have a killer show put together by our man Matt Dougherty starting at 6pm with Cody Crump (love this kid, click and listen), Meniskus (violin rock), Ten Percent Genius (click the site to check out Dougherty's sweet poster), Other Side of Clearview (another cool poster here) and Some Friends of Mine batting clean up at 11:30pm. $5.

Saturday night at 8pm we have the triumphant return of Colorado's first lady of soul, Hazel Miller. Come swoon with us. $15 door/ $12 advance. After Hazel we'll have the dancing groove of Clusterfunk .

Saturday day we have The School of Rock doing a tribute show to The Who . There are two shows at 1pm and 5pm. $8. The kids are alright.

Next Tuesday we have The Arvada Center Studio Jazz Ensemble at 5:30pm (Free), and then New Band Night w/ Facing Sunday and Hand Picked Holler at 7:30pm. Free.

Finally we should tell you The Motet is presenting Juno What next Friday and the Thursday after that we start Trivia w/ Geeks Who Drink. John Dicker, the big geek behind this popular trivia series will be hosting it himself. (He is addicted our pizza.)

Soonest,

D nude

Madness

Hello madness my old friend
answer me one question, tell me
where are you taking me now?

Please be gentle
I ain't got no insurance
I'm as fragile as the law will allow.

Well now, smarty pants, you have a point,
I chased you down there for so long.

Put your faith in fire.
Have your faith in fire repaid.

I put my faith in fire
and had my faith in fire
repaid for a song.
