Some of you may know Sammy Kidd as the front man of local garage rockers Mean Motor Scooter; others may know him as the man behind Brainhole Tapes; but now we can all refer to him as festival entrepreneur and organizer with the upcoming Brainhole Festival. 30 bands will descend upon one of our favorite watering holes, Lola’s, for three days of great music. The boys talk with Sammy about what it took to put on a 3 day festival like this, what’s in store for the festival, and what’s on the horizon for the entire Brainhole universe. The also talk about the previous weekends Thin Line Festival up in Denton, and this weekends Fortress Fest. It’s festival season boys and girls, and there is a ton of music coming to North Texas! The boys also bring back what is quickly becoming a popular segment, Wal-mart Metal!

Fortress Festival is this weekend, April 29-30 in the Cultural District of Fort Worth. Tickets and info can be found here!

Brainhole fest is next weekend, May 5-7 at Lola’s in Fort Worth. More info and lineup information can be found here!

Show 204 – Looking at Kidneys W/ Jared and the Jewelers

IMG_7919.JPG

Do to scheduling conflicts, it’s a rare Monday night show this week and the boys are joined by Jared and Frank from Jared and the Jewelers, as well as the JJTM producer from the Austin branch, Jeremie. Like caged animals the show comes unhinged from the get go, and immediately takes a trip down the largest of all rabbit holes. Dustin talks about homeless people assaulting him during a photoshoot, hanging out with Monster Girls at the NASCAR race, there’s gun talk with Matt, a butt sharpie record update, emails and voice mails, and the show is wrapped up with a new bit: Walmart Metal.

Jared and the Jewelers have two big shows this weekend: Friday at the Peppermill Lounge and Saturday at the Doublewide. Be there and check these boys out!

IMG_7797

This week the Marlin, Ray, and Trashpockets of the Me-Thinks hung out with the boys and there really isn’t much more to say then that. So many things were discussed and thrown around including a pretty fun game that allows you to get the know the Me-Thinks a little better. Maybe even better then you should! The Me-Thinks are celebrating Marlin and Trashpocket’s birthday this Saturday night at Lola’s with Squanto and Holy Moly. This will be an epic show not to be missed! Special thanks to our West Coast BFF Rebecca for being so extra special!
