I'm telling my one peep in Chicago to go check out FACS.

FYI I don't think that show is Thursday as they're playing the Cactus Club that night (and I'm going). Quick search: yeah the Bottle show is Friday.

Thanks for the correction!

My sisters band get to play with Sludgeworth tomorrow so that's kind of cool.

Did you end up catching the Model/Actriz show? Blew my mind. Full house, too!

No, Mr. C, I made an adult decision much to my chagrin! Really like the record tho.

A noisy fun run of shows for Chicago's Memorial Day Weekend

May 26th Cherubs, Rid of Me, and Mr. Phlyzzz 8pm @ Beat Kitchen

May 27th USA Nails at Cole's

May 28th Bedtimemagic, Weaklung (that's us!), and The Living Head 8pm @ Beat Kitchen

Not in Chicago, but Chicago duo Djunah is paying Boston tonight. Interesting band that’s a little bit metal, a little bit noise. Taurus pedals! Loud women! Pretty excited for this and hopefully I don’t fall asleep and not leave the house.

Really liked that Djunah show. I think this is the first time they played Boston. Seems like a band that should be out on bigger tours but they're still jamming econo, looks like. I imagine you Chicago folks are familiar with them?

Openers Rid of Me (Philly) were great too.

I'm also too old to be at shows that keep me up til 1 am.

Yeah, their first drummer is an old friend/was in PRF favorites Fake Limbs. She kind of canned him in a shitty way tbh. I still listened to some of the newest one in as unbiased way possible but thought it had taken a turn for the fantasy metal (compared to the first album, which was more, erm.. Rid of Me raw). I do agree she/they have the potential to be huge, which is what they really want and I wish them luck.
