Monday 12/29/08
[Recommended] The Movies / Everest / Love Lies Sleeping / Roses Kings Castle (Adam from Babyshambles) @ Spaceland (Free) – I made it to three Movies shows in a row, which is pretty impressive for me. I seem to be out of town a lot when Everest plays.

The Color Turning / Francisco the Man / Yellow Red Sparks / Secret 6 @ Silverlake Lounge (Free)

Tuesday 12/30/08

Wednesday 12/31/08
[Recommended] The Hentry Clay People / The Happy Hollows / The Pity Party @ Spaceland ($10) – New Year’s Eve is total amateur night when it comes to going out. You won’t catch me paying $100 cover to go hang out at the Viper Room. Instead, you can see LA’s best party/bar band, the Henry Clay People for $8 (if you email them). This will be the last show for two of the members, so you can expect a raucous good time. They’ll be ending the show with lots of covers.
Low End Theory: Themselves / Free Moral Agents / Blank Blue / Samiyam / Ras G / Thavius Beck @ Airliner
Little Radio-Bank Run: Ariel Pink / Crystal Antlers / Kutmah / Port O'Brien / Restavrant / J-Logic / Hit & Run / The Natives @ The Bank [401 Main St.] - $20 for general admin or $40 for VIP entrance. 
Giant Maximus: Moby DJ set / Benny Benassi / Dirty South / Paul Oakenfold / Mark Farina / Marques Wyatt / Mickey Avalon / Dirt Nasty @ 8th and Figueroa ($75) – Get all E’ed up and act like it’s the nineties.
Pink Martini ($65 - $195) – There’s an early show at 7:00 and a late show at 10:30
Stone Temple Pilots @ Club Nokia ($79 - $129)
Snoop Dogg @ House of Blues Sunset ($115) – I enjoy Snoop, but I will not be attending a New Year’s Eve show at the House of Blues.
