DRAGONETTE is Coming!

As many of you know, I adore Dragonette. They are what Pop Music should be: well written, pop-sensitive, and completely carefree. When they were listed to open for Little Boots I nearly died... and then I really did die when the show was cancelled.

BUT NOW, thanks to the powers that be, and some good juju, they are coming anyway (but this time by themselves at DC9 instead of 9:30 club)!

Get Your Tix HERE

If you don't have their latest album, Fixin' to Thrill, definitely pick it up. It tied as my favorite Pop album of 2009 with La Roux's S/T debut.

For fans of Ladyhawke, Lykke Li, La Roux, Little Boots, Lady Gaga.... and other acts that start with "L."

homo/sonic on the horizon

You only have to wait a week after the upcoming SHIFT for some good music and quality dancing. Our friends at TNG are heating up Spring with Homo/Sonic. Here's what they have to say about it:

"Hey, it's that time again! Join The New Gay for a night of ass-shaking, booby swinging, dick-like-a-helicopter dancing to indie, electro, retro, disco, booty pop and beyond.

As usual our parties are coed, trans-inclusive and straight friendly. See you there!

Black Cat, 1811 14th St., NW, All Ages, $10

And don't forget to RSVP on facebook. "
