So every once in a while The Echo hosts a free, unexpected show.

Like the last time when Beck played and only a handful of select Los Angelos knew about it in time. Leading to an overall attendance of, say, 10.

This time a special guess known only to venue-goers as
"Buildings" will be joining the Ruby Suns at 8 PM sharp...

And yes, these folk will be at Coachella, too.

Rock on.

Hear the MOON UPSTAIRS tonight
on
"WE'RE GONNA BE TIMELESS!"
internet radio show!!
(named after the Zolar X song "Timeless")
6:00-8:00pm (Pacific Standard Time)



Guest DJ for the evening will be Ben Mancell
.................

Tonight THE MOON UPSTAIRS will be paying tribute to THE FALL

"Out of all the late-'70s punk and post-punk bands, none were longer lived or more prolific than the Fall. Throughout their career, the band underwent a myriad of lineup changes, but at the center of it all was vocalist Mark E. Smith. With his snarling, nearly incomprehensible vocals and consuming bitter cynicism, Smith became a cult legend in indie and alternative rock. Over the course of their career, the Fall went through a number of shifts in musical style, yet the foundation of their sound was a near-cacophonous, amelodic jagged jumble of guitars, sing-speak vocals, and keyboards."


Album tracks, B-sides, radio sessions and splinter groups such as The Creepers, Blue Orchids and Von Sudenfed. Chase that pint of lager with an espresso (or vice versa) and travel to the Wonderfuland Frightening World of Mark E. Smith and The Fall ~

THE LIEUTENANTS"This is not an act of treason" shouts The Lieutenants frontman Adrian Symcox on the opening track of his band's debut E.P. And he is right in this assertion. While there is no shortage of bands claiming The Clash, The Jam, or Elvis Costello as influences, The Lieutenants do not betray the legacy of Strummer, Weller, or Costello.” -From Bio
