Saturday, March 24, 2012 The Jefferson – 1:10PM @ El Mocambo Upstairs (Aussie BBQ) Determined to fit The Jefferson into my schedule, I started Saturday bright and early at the El Mocambo for the Aussie BBQ.

Date of show: October 14, 2010 Lordy Lordy played a short set to a rather sparse El Mocambo crowd. There’s something about the vastness of the venue that really makes it look like no one is there, but the guys did draw most of the attendees to the stage to enjoy the set. Justin Myler [...]
You might remember Lordy Lordy from this night. Well, they are throwing a party next week and you are all invited! With fall upon us, the guys in Lordy Lordy are missing summer and they want to bring back the beach for a night. They’re even going so far as requesting people wear summer clothes. [...]
Date of show: September 17, 2010 Shot of choice: Make Your Exit did a shot of jager, after some debating Southern Souls’ Mitch Fillion put on a fundraiser for the site and Rachel was able to shoot it. Seeing as I was not at this event (and believe me, if I were able to be [...]
