DIY Nation: Soundlab 84
After returning from my Radiohead roadtrip, I recharged and headed out to Cabbagetown or Reynoldstown (I’m not sure exactly where the line is) for a house party last Saturday night. The party was hosted by the guys from Missile Command, featuring some of Atlanta’s most prolific artists and all-around cool dudes. The house was perfectly suited for this sort of thing, with great porches, a front living room converted to a small venue, and plenty of booze to go around. And of course the show was absolutely free. ATL superstars were out and about for this one.
I thoroughly enjoyed all 4 bands on the bill. Everyone there was rocking loud and hard. The cops came at least twice, but must have been pretty cool because the music never stopped. I have not attended a ton of house parties on the east side of town, so its great to see people doing it right outside the college kid infested neighborhood I live in. I got some videos, and while the sound is pretty decent, the lighting was way too dark. But if you want to watch the blurry shadows bringing it hard, I’ve uploaded them to youtube anyways (think of them as audio recordings):
