Thee Swank Bastards and The Hard Riders will be playing at The Double Down Saloon on Saturday April 17th. Thee Swank Bastards will start the night off from 9:00pm - 11:00pm. I believe The Hard Riders will follow them at 11:00pm. Here is a list of the other bands for the night: Punk as a Doornail, Scurvy Shyster Bastards, Donkey Punch and Greed. We hope to see some of you there cause it should be freakin fun. If you needed an excuse to go to Vegas well here it is!! Ha HA I am also planning on some quality time at Frankies that weekend too!!

Hey! I'll be in town for work (Drag Races at the Speedway). I haven't been to the DD since the Huntington Cads played there in the mid 90's...Or, Maybe a Neptunas show? I'll try to make it! |

That makes two from "Bay City". Samo represent !! Looking forward to this Sat, Spermy. I can't think of a more appropriate venue for the Punk Rock sounds of the Hard Riders than the DD. I'll be hanging south of the Sahara Ave borderline this trip so no Frankie's for me. I'll be getting my drink on at the Dispensary Lounge. See ya !! |

My friends and I probably won't be getting in until late on Friday. I think the plan is to then enjoy $3 micro-brews at Ellis Island. I'll give you a call on Saturday to see what you're up to and to confirm the show schedule. Will there be any TC LV locals at the show? (Mr. Smiley ??) |

Just found out I've got the night off. I will try to get some babysitter coverage and make it to the DD. But I think Frankies should be a great launching point. The bands don't come on until late. I'm not familiar with the bands but if they are on TC they should be cool. btw I thought the microbrews were a dollar at Ellis Island. [ Edited by: Trailerpark Tiki 2010-04-14 00:29 ] |

Cool. Wear an Aloha shirt (preferably one with Tikis) so we can spot you out. I'm not sure however if the Swank Bastards also draw a "Hawaiian Tourist" crowd. What other handle do you go by? Sorry but it might be awkward to go up to someone and ask "Are you Trailerpark?". :)
You might be right there. I hope you're right. :) |

lol Almost as bad as asking people, "are you Mr. Smiley?" But I think there may be a lot of 'trailerpark boys' at the DD. Got the babysitter, now seeking a designated driver but I can pace myself if I can't find a driver. I'll wear an aloha shirt, most people call me Wade. The DD website shows Thee Swank Bastards playing early at 9. [ Edited by: Trailerpark Tiki 2010-04-14 20:22 ] |

This was a great F'n show. The Swank Bastards (who I've embarrassingly never seen before) started out the night. They ripped through the Surf instrumentals (is this redundant?) from classic though new. Also on hand was a hula hoop burlesque dancer who added a whole new dimension to the entertainment. My favorite was a Surf version medley of popular 60's tunes like "Secret Agent Man" and the Munsters theme. This is a GREAT band and they'll be playing in May at Spikes's in Rosemead. I'm sure BigTikiDude will keep us in the loop. Next up was the Hard Riders featuring TC's own Sperm Whale. Classic hardcore punk is a great follow-up to Surf. The Hard Riders were a punk rock freight train barreling along at top speed. When I saw them play in Mar Vista a few months ago they were tight but this show really kicked it up a notch. It might be that the Double Down is exceptionally good at channeling fast loud rock n' roll and/or inspiring the band. My favorite song was the one played before the "Bobble Heads" one. (Spermy, which song was that?) I'm still in Vegas so I'll post some pictures when I'm back in LA (where my digital camera cord is). Trailerpark Tiki, it was great to meet you and thanks for the "Ass Juice" (FYI for all of you, that's a DD signature cocktail :)). The next time I'm in town, I'll buy a round of bacon martinis.

Here's some pics... It was really hard to catch a clear shot of the Swank Bastards because of the extra lights and the filming. (This was right before she took her top off) The Hard Riders were even harder because Spermy was jumping around so much. Most of the time he was just a big blur. Too much Punk Rock energy !! :D [ Edited by: JOHN-O 2010-04-21 22:52 ] |
