The Jonx with Melt-Banana and XBXRX- sundaySundaySUNDAY!
The Jonx are honored to announce that, this Sunday, May 27, we will be opening for Melt-Banana, the lords of Japanese noise-grind-rock and the Best Live Band In The World. NO ARGUMENTS ON THIS TOPIC WILL BE ENTERTAINED. If you haven’t seen Melt-Banana before you owe it to yourself to come to this show. Your mind will be blown, so bring a spare, or one of those cans of fix-a-brain. I heard that stuff is pretty flammable though so they may not let you bring it inside. Call ahead.
We’re playing first, promptly at 9 PM. XBXRX, a band who, much like Houston’s own Fatal Flying Guilloteens, started out basically as a joke and have grown into a surprisingly good punk band, will play second. I’ve also heard their costumes and/or stage antics compared to those of the Guilloteens, so don’t be surprised if any of them play in pink turtlenecks or announce unexpectedly that it’s their last show with the band even though it’s a weeknight and they’re NOT EVEN HEADLINING I MEAN WHAT THE HELL.
This show is at NUMBERS on SUNDAY, MAY 27 and again, we have been informed that it will begin at 9 PM SHARP. $10 advance, $12 day of show. Tickets available at superunison.com.
Also, I and possibly Stu and Trey will be interviewed on KTRU tonight (Friday) between 6 and 7. Hear it at 91.7 FM or ktru.org.
Very Truly Yours,
Danny

The Guilloteens formed in 1996 and Xbxrx in 1998. Actually, though, I should make it clear that I repeated that “accusation” solely as the setup for a joke, and I did not actually mean to accuse them of anything myself. I like XBXRX. Taking another look at that sentence now it does read badly, however, so I’m going to get change it. Everybody happy?
