AUSTIN UNDERGROUND presents a rock ‘n’ roll charity show benefiting Food Not Bombs and the Austin Underground Film Festival.
Saturday, August 16th @ Red’s Scoot Inn
The Little Morts
Bus Stop Stallions
The Little Gentlemen
with DJ Soundfounder
$8 cover, $5 with can donation for Food Not Bombs
At 8:45pm sharp we got The Little Gentlemen kicking things off with some brotastic jams for your grape
-followed by Bus Stop Stallions, the impossibly groomed and categorically badass funksters, who will then take what’s left of your grape and stomp it into heady wine-
-and finally, The Little Morts, featuring new member Sam Alberts (formerly of Fat Mansion, who you may remember rocking the film fest after party 2K7), will shotgun the wine along with everything else in sight to fuel their chicken-pickin’ demonic square dance rock.
And, as if that weren’t enough to get your motor revving, all night DJ SoundFounder will be spinning pop flax into gold on the wheels of steel.
We’ll have a photo booth thanks to Jeremy Van Doren and even free punk rock hair stylings courtesy of our sponsors Bird’s Barbershop.
So just ask yourself the following questions: “Do I like free stuff? Do I enjoy supporting indie film? Do I like helping my fellow man? Do I want to rock?”
If you answered yes to any of the above, swing by Red’s Scoot Inn on Saturday, August 16th at 8:30 to have all your earthly desires satiated and every orifice penetrated by rock-hard musical virility, and quench your thirst from their full bar of libations. Because we all know Austin is a drinking town with a college problem.
If you answered no, then you clearly have no cinematic or musical taste, you hate poor people, and you will continue on in your delusion that your hair currently looks remotely attractive. Don’t live a lie.
This show’s rock is so hard, it could cut a diamond. In fact, NASA engineers will be standing by to record the gig live onto CD’s which they will then use to panel the next space shuttle, for safely shielding the astronauts on board during the extreme heat of re-entry. So come on, people, do it for America.
only $8, $5 with a canned food donation
