Ted Leo is the secret guest at the Santos Party House show. Ted Leo is no longer the secret guest at Santos Party House.

Lissy Trullie cancelled her Santos appearance, but Hearts of Darknesses was added.

What's a good time to go to Death By Audio?

Does anyone know if Mr. Brownstone is actually going on at 2 AM?

(Yes, I am in the mood for cover bands)

Dirty on Purpose is essentially a cover band, so you should check them out too.

the deep & holy sea / the replacements
asa ransom / the clash
necking / black flag
liturgy / black sabbath
love or perish / the misfits
so so glos / ????
special guest / weezer
