![]() ![]() This Saturday, The Pussy Pirates return to Chicago. Team Bang Gang with Willy Joy, Saturday, March 31st at Tini Martini, 2169 N Milwaukee Ave. ![]() I recommend half a bottle of tequila and the indelible image of JT with a box on his dick to get the full experience, but I'm jaded as all hell at this point. Catch him tomorrow at Tini Martini for Team Bang Gang, April 5th and 12th at Schubas for DJ's Upstairs, and April 26th for the aforementioned FLYBYNIGHT residence night at The Underground Lounge, this month with DJ Ayres from The Rub. 1, and a solid gig schedule, including a residence at The Underground Lounge, it looks like the rest of you fools better get ready, cause Willy Joy's coming out huge this month. That shit was a moment.Īnd now, with the release of his 80's/hip-hop/electro-tastic mixtape, FLYBYNIGHT Vol. New Year's Eve I was in the middle of a pretty rowdy dance floor when Willy Joy, the DJ, went for the gold and cued up " Dick in a Box." Then he took that extra step and played it again, back to back. Other times, purely by chance, I get lucky. And I don't mind drinking, so there you go. It's a crappy price to pay, but someone's got to do it. Oftentimes I just end up drunk, desperately trying drown with booze the plaintive wails of some trustafarian art student who has discovered that the true sound of his soul is best expressed by taking 18V of Makita's finest to a xylophone during some emo-ass guitar song with no dance break. I spend a lot of time searching for those moments, with dubious results. I love those moments when you realize that something special is happening, that you've been lucky enough to stumble upon a rare talent just before it hits. Free and Open (I assume that means no admission and all-ages). Performances and visuals by Mike Miles, jonsatrom, Alex Inglezian & Tim Shaw, and Noise Crush & The Fortieth Day (the latter featuring members of Bloodyminded doing their interpretation of early '80s industrial music via synth, guitar, bass, and drum machine). Because you know that as soon as it climbs up over 75 degrees, you're going to be itching to be outside! According to the Busker website, the event "will consists of live|realTime performances, and single channel screenings that will hopefully disrupt expectations of clarity that an otherwise proper camera obscura would give." I can't quite visualize what this means in my head, but considering that it's still a bit nippy outside, I think it might be in your best interest to spend one more Friday night indoors, checking out some intense visuals and music. The buzzwords here are some early moving-picture terms, "Media Obscura" (a variation on "Camera Obscura") and "Thaumatope" (check the gig poster for a visual example.you remember these from childhood, I'm guessing). Busker is hosting a music/film combo presentation tonight at the Flowershop (2159 W. ![]()
