The Coathangers @ Pianos (more by Faith-Ann Young)
Mika Miko, the Strange Boys, the Coathangers and Fiasco all converge in New York City for a Saturday, June 13th show at the Market Hotel.
I say converge because that show is part of the Mika Miko/Strange Boys tour that'll be cutting across the US in June. The Coathangers share the bill on some dates. That's until July, when the Strange Boys switch ships and continue on the road with just the Coathangers. All details below.
The Coathangers, who releaed their third record, Scramble, on Suicide Squeeze in early April, also play another NYC show on Sunday, June 14th at Brooklyn's Glasslands Gallery with Ex Humans, K-Holes, DJ Aliz. The same Sunday, Mika Miko and the Strange Boys will venture into Manhattan for a show at the Cake Shop.
Both mentioned Brooklyn shows happen during the Northside Festival.
Strange Boys' debut record, And Girls Club, came out in March on In the Red. Mika Miko's newest, We Be Xuxa, is coming out May 5th on Post Present Medium.
Fiasco doesn't have a new record -- though in January '09 they did release a free, split, two-song EP (with NYC band Banzai) called Fabulous Bozo, where both bands cover the NYC band Snuffy. It's available courtesy of Beautiful Records for free (zip file above). Fiasco is also playing this year's Citysol Festival at Stuyvesant Cove Park on Tuesday, July 7th in July. Carebears on Fire played Citysol in 2008.

How many people does Market Hotel hold? Is it rare for them to turn people away when it gets crowded?

strnage boys are good, 'and boys and girls club' is a super fun throwback record. although i'm not sure if they're good live. saw them before i liked their music and it was kinda terrible. mika miko are good live but they annoy me sometimes, yet i've seen them like 4 million times. coathangers! love them.

"Let's start a band"
"But we can't play instruments and we have no talent"
"I got it - let's just buy the cheapest instruments available and spend all our remaining money on clothes and tattoos. I bet you if we dress cool enough....no one will notice that we are horribly untalented, amateur and have no clue how to write anything that could be classified as music. I think my brother has a Peavey amp we could use so all we need is a drum set and ummm..."
"But what about the music? How do we do that?"
"Just learn to play a barre chord and that's all you need. Throw in a keyboard for appearance and kitsch. You can hit keys with fingers right? Drums are so easy, you just hit stuff. It's so cool."
"Great but...how do we sing?"
"Well, we can just not really sing but kinda chant and laugh and talk alot, maybe even switch up who sings you know? To keep the focus off one person...and let's write lyrics about funny stuff you know? Like boobies or something. People love boobies. Especially boys. Haha! Maybe they will just think we are so funny that they won't care we are hacks!"
"Sounds good, but what happens if people criticize us? What do we do?"
"Easy - we just take the whole "we don't care about anything" image. Just like the Vivian Girls."
"Cool!"

Dear Passerby. You are a idiot!
This show is going to be so much fun. Music does not always have to be perfect and so contrived. Go smoke a Phatty bowl and stop being a whiny pussy.

passerby: go die. you are a useless angry fuck who deserves his or her(doubtful) self-imposed exile, or whatever inspired that bullshit. bill o'reilly is waiting for you, you don't belong here... your way-too-long hateful diatribe is in the 1 step forward 800 steps back catagory all the way. i hate you.
