Black Friday

Happy Black Friday to you all! I can't begin to even fathom going to any store today, fuck all that mess.

Anyway, down to the nitty gritty. Playing tonight at Numbers Night Club is Nitzer Ebb, to all those who are familiar with him, kudos, other wise, strap on some headphones and prepare yourself for some industrial sounds sure to get you riled up and confused for no reason. Like Texans like fried everything, industrial rockers love Nitzer Ebb- and how fitting of a venue for them to chose. For many people, going to Numbers is like traveling through time, although if you aren't careful, you're likely to contract scabies along your trip. If you're looking for a good time with some good music and a crowd that are all high on something, then I'd highly recommend making the trip out tonight. Just be aware: Nitzer Ebb is not for the vanilla sex crowd.
Where: Numbers Night Club (300 Westhimer)
Time: Doors @ 8- Show @ 9
Cost: $20 Advance- $24 Door
Age: All Ages 

Now if industrial rock isn't your cup of tea then head on over to The Mink for Houston rapper Fat Tony's Album Release party. RABDARGAB, the first LP from the prominent hip hop artist is sure to be filled with highly stylize lyrics and creative beats to match. Don't be surprised to find this highly anticipated album in the CD player of every run-of-the-mill-white-boy-who-loves-hip-hop, an anthem is sure to emerge. Accompanying Fat Tony are underground hip hop up-and-comer B L A C K I E, who have consistently delivered at every show they've played this year. Your ears should only be so lucky. Go, get drunk, support the underground hip hop movement, and let the sick styling of these artists change you on a molecular level. 

Where: The Mink (3718 Main)
 Time: 9pm
Cost: $6*
Age: All Ages (21+ free)

Strike out with the first two entries? Looking for a little Indie inspired Texas grown pop to lighten the evening and gently sway you into a drunken stupor? Strap on your over priced Urban Outfitters version of Keds and drive over to Warehouse Live for Eisley w/  Ives the Band, and Christie Dupree. Fresh off their old label and better for it, Eisley's dream-pop infused sound paired with a three part harmony from the Dupree sisters makes for a really beautiful show. Highly imaginative lyrics and catchy cords keep the show interesting and takes your brain on a surreal adventure. If you're a single dude, you're bound to be surrounded by a bunch of chicks who take fashion tips from J.R.R. Tolken novels and spend way too much money on clever t-shirts from Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie, etc. hitting on anyone of these ladies is a win-win situation. Do not be stunned when out of nowhere, appears a unicorn, its been known to happen at a number of their shows.

Where: Warehouse Live (813 St. Emanuel)
Time: Doors@ 8
Cost: $15
Age: All Ages
