2 comments

The Alamo Drafthouse at The Ritz downtown continues to bring us randomly awesome things with a showing of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie on Wednesday.  As always, if you’re just expecting dinner and a movie, you would be wrong.  No, for this event, The Drafthouse is charging you $16 for the movie and all you can eat pizza in a variety of TMNT themed flavors.  Showtime is set for 7pm.  Buy tickets from the Alamo Drafthouse website and watch a sweet trailer on IMDB.

Blitzen Trapper @ Mohawk (11/26)

One comment

Contenders for record of the year, Blitzen Trapper, will be playing a Thanksgiving Eve show at Mohawk on Wednesday night.  The bill is actually pretty impressive with Pink Nasty and Parson Redheads opening things up for the Portland based band.  Even more impressive, New York band O’Death will be playing on the inside stage in between the main acts outside.  Tickets can be bought now for $8.  Here’s one of my favorite pop songs to come out in several years “Punctual as Usual” by the Parson Redheads.

New Ben Kweller Track

Leave a comment

Everyone’s favorite Texas boy, Ben Kweller, has a new song called “Hurtin’ You” that premiered on Stereogum late last week.  The song is our first glimpse into Kweller’s new album Changing Horses due out in February of next year.  Sounds like he’s going deeper into the country/singer-sonwriter genre.
