Tonight is the big show at Hennessy's. I've been focusing a lot on the moustache aspect of this show, because quite frankly moustaches interest me on both the esoteric and visceral levels. But there's something I've been neglecting a bit during the obligatory pre-show pimp period: how fucking awesome the band Aloud is.

We've played with Aloud a few times in the past. For years, I have counted them amongst my absolute favorite bands, being barely edged out in awesomeness by the 1985 Chicago Bears "Shufflin' Crew." A lot of people thought Mike Singletary's jazz bass solos on the second Shufflin' Crew album were a bit indulgent, but they just don't understand what true music visionaries the Bears defensive line really were.

But back to Aloud. You have not experienced true rock and roll fury until you've seen Jen rip shit up. She is an absolute force of nature on stage. And Henry's not a bad little performer himself. A chronic premature ejaculator from what I hear, but a nice little rock and roller. Seeing Aloud is worth the price of admission alone.

But that's not all you get. No, not by a longshot. I haven't seen The Sterns live, but word on the street is that they're about to take off like nobody's business. And Noelle's band Damone has already taken off into the stratosphere, achieving major label success and touring the world. Her side project The Organ Beats will most assuredly not suck.

And finally, you get to see four douchebags in moustaches. Eh. You can't win them all.

Start your Memorial Day weekend early with us. We'll see you tonight with moustaches a-blazin'.

I don't remember declaring you editor. Don't you have your own page to update, jerk?

It's like granpa always says, you can't spell "mature" without "premature ejaculation".

If it does, we've played with Aloud exactly 4,624 times.
