A wonderful, eclectic psychedelic group called The Good Old Fashioned Sinners is headlining the Subterranean this Thursday night (5/10). I think it's a $7 cover. Think of Hella, the MC5 and Brian Jonestown Massacre all shaken up. It's great stuff, worth checking out. The longer psych/blues renditions cause proper freak-outs.

For instance, this week we’re looking for stuff that’s going down between today (5/8) and next Monday (5/14).Isn't today the 7th? Or did I wake up in a horribly mundane episode of "Early Edition"?
