ATH Free Week Guide

So it’s that time of year again in Austin when all us music nerds get our geek on with a slew of free shows going on.  Thats right folks, it’s free week in Austin!  Now we know that the free shows really began this past weekend, but ATH was nursing a minor hangover from New Years so we missed out on those shows.  We would however like to share our picks for the best show each night of the week going through the upcoming weekend.  Obviously options abound for shows and choosing just ONE show for each night was a tough chore for us.  We just figured that you could see ALL your options on most other sites in town.  We’d recommend Show List Austin or Do512 for all expansive show lists.  Follow the jump for our nightly recommendations.

Local Austin rock band The Zoltars are having themselves a 7″ release show at Beerland on Saturday night.  Joining the guys on stage are fellow up and comers How I Quit Crack, Air Traffic Controllers, Roo, and These Are Words.  That’s a pretty hefty lineup for a very small door charge.  What else are you gonna be doing on Saturday night?  Nothing!

Show Preview: The Pons @ Ghost Room (12/11)

Date 12/11/10
Location Ghost Room
Doors 9pm
Tickets $6 @ Door

One of my favorite and highly underrated local bands The Pons are headlining an all local show at The Ghost Room on Saturday night.  You’ll also get promising locals Stereo is a Lie and Red Falcon adding to the fun.  Chilling at a great venue like Ghost Room on Saturday night and checking out some great local music sounds like a plan to me.

Wu-Tang Clan @ Emo’s (12/11)

Date 12/11/10
Location Emos
Doors 8pm
Tickets Sold Out!

Saturday night at Emo’s is home to one of the most random lineups I can remember in recent history.  For starters the insane Wu-Tang Clan will be headlining outside with fellow hip-hop acts MC Overlord, Phranchyze, and Riders Against the Storm.  Then the inside stage will feature some of Austin’s hot indie bands in the form of White Denim, The Authors, and Hundred Visions.  I never thought I’d be saying White Denim and Wu-Tang in the same sentence…  Unfortunately tickets are only currently available for the inside stage so maybe you can sneak between the two stages?  My guess is that security will be a little more strict on the big difference in price between the two shows.
