also in cae you arent sure about the bands...
DNA TEST FEST is April 24-25th at The Velvet Lounge in Washington DC.
It is 18+, not 21+ like some of the rumors have said.
Tickets are 10 Dollars for 1 Day, 15$ for both (15 bands, 15 dollars,
you can't beat that, most of you all are privileged college kids, you
can put off your weekly shopping at the ironic thrift store and buying
stupid cds at insound.com for one week)
THERE IS NO GUEST LIST DONT ASK, I CANT GET YOU IN FOR FREE, I DONT
CARE IF YOU ARE MY BFF OR IF YOU KNOW GREG GINN OR VARG YOU WILL NOT
GET IN FOR FREE!
Both days START AT 7:30 SHARP...come early. No one cares if you're
"that guy" cause you probably already are.
Velvet Lounge info:
915 U Street NW, Washington, DC

Metro: Take the Green Line to the U Street stop. Choose the Vermont
Ave. side and not the 13th street side. Velvet Lounge is on U Street

We are doing sellers tables sell anything you want, your old hatebreed
CDS, your old youth of today 7" 's, blood brothers side design tshirts
(yeah we know you owned one), fake wolf eyes tapes, the metal VOID
bootleg that never came out, boots and braces etc etc. whatever you
want just get in touch let me know, you keep the profit just let me
know your coming.
FAN DEATH RECORDS will have a sellers table there as well. Get some
rad records (FNU Ronnies, Clockcleaner, Fathers day etc) that will fit
nicely between your glasvegas crap record, mastadon "hey im cool i
like crazy metal" LP, and the new animal collective techo rap record
you just got off ebay.

noise that is sick and pretty
http://www.myspace.com/rosemarykrust)
Lampshades (Last year I described them as superdrag meets the
shivvers, I stand by that still. Power pop that doesn't sound like
some one getting kicked in the crotch
http://www.myspace.com/thelampshades)

http://www.myspace.com/armidaandherimaginaryband)
DAY 2 APRIL 25TH
Pink Reason ( Dude has made masterpiece 7" 's and a LP that is amazing
to say the least. Druged out slow punk that makes most of whats on
your ipod look stupid
http://www.myspace.com/secondculture)
Kurt Vile (There is a reason this guy has been talked about in this
area like hes already a legend, forget the hype, his 2 new releases:
Hunchback EP, and God is Saying this to You...have again floored
people to all with open ears. Jack Rose finger picking, Neil Young
song writing, psych tendencies
http://www.myspace.com/kurtvileofphilly)
Drunkdriver (There really hasn't been a better band name that goes
well with the music. This WILL hurt people, this is there first DC
performance, and not to be the last for sure, but who knows. Swans
meets harry pussy meets mental illness?
http://www.myspace.com/drunkdriverUSA)
The New Flesh (Back from the dead, they will never die, this band
still doesn't care
http://www.myspace.com/thenewflesh)
