Scorchin’ Shows In Hotlanta This Weekend

This is a killer weekend for ATL shows. Tonight there’s an interesting house party worth looking into (We Like House Parties):

141 MORELAND AVE.: the booze, das manics, cancer slug (huntsville al), the trophy wives all ages 9:00 pm / Cover TBA (no more than $4) (Das Manics first house show, Cancer Slug are touring, and The Booze will make us dance! Goose’s email: skorpionstomp@gmail.com, Moreland Ave’s Myspace: http://www.myspace.com/morelandave)

Also, I’ve been meaning to check them out, but people tell me Club Awesome is indeed awesome, and they are at The Earl tonight doing some weird thing where they play in front of video of them playing at The Earl a month ago. sounds interesting:

Confessions Of A Music Addict’s Pick of the Week is Friday night at The Earl with Tiger! Tiger!, Tenement Halls, and Thee Crucials.

Other good Friday night shows include Moresight (Who David was talking about earlier this week), The States, and Treasury at Lenny’s. Stickfigure Distribution has a great show at Eyedrum with Envie, Jaggery, and The Ghost Projects. The Decatur Social Club even has a special guest from Australia, Riot In Belgium, for your late night happenings. And if you’re looking for something even more underground:
