June is closing out with a few treats for us cheap concert-goers. Tonight brings us a free show by Steve Aoki at The Roxy, brought to you by Mark ‘The Cobrasnake.” If you are in the mood to dance, and want a high likelihood of some tasteful and timely Michael Jackson remixes – I’d probably head there.
If you’re feeling more like a laid back, lounging, rock’n’roll sort of evening – come to Hunnypot Unlimited in Culver City – for their every other week radio show. Tonight, Stone Foxes will be performing a few songs acoustically. I’m totally digging the Foxes right now – their album, their grit and their raw sound all add up to a success story waiting to happen. If you can’t check them out tonight – they bring their battle axes to The Viper Room on Wednesday July 1st.
Stone Foxes are not the only band kicking off LA’s July concert calendar – Wednesday July 1st is arguably one of the top music nights for rising talent this year with The French Semester, Far East Movement, Dr. Hollywood, McTuff, and the Eulogies each performing. If you are sticking on the eastside – you might be able to bounce between The French Semester at Silverlake Lounge around midnight and Eulogies at Echo. If you’re in the Sunset area – perhaps you can bounce from Stone Foxes at Viper Room (around 11 pmish) to Far East Movement and Dr. Hollywood at The Roxy.
As we spill into the holiday weekend, you’re going to have a lot of things competing for your time – but if you want to whip out your dancing shoes – you might consider heading to The Avalon on Thursday for the Michael Jackson tribute (til 3 am) or to go see Treasure Fingers on Friday. If you’ve got an itch to be more outdoorsy and festive or are simply feeling like a holiday festival, you should check out California Music Festival in Ventura, CA. Over the two day event (July 3rd and 4th) there will be performances by The Matches, The French Semester, Unwritten Law, Blackbyrd Midnight, Year of the Dragon, Kid Frost, Lisa Donnelly, Jet Stream and many others.
