Mika Miko are finally back on the east coast. This supreme west coast art-punk outfit has prolifically recorded and toured for years, establishing themselves as on of the more exciting bands in their genre via non-stop touring and recording throughout the 21st century. They’ll be joined by Mr. Jonathan Toubin’s favorite Austin band, The Strange Boys, who just released their first full-length on Larry Hardy’s prestigious In the Red imprint (remember, Black Lips, King Khan, Jay Reatard, etc were all there before they were snatched up by bigger badder fish…). Coathangers are four gals from Hot’lanta that play quirky art/party punk. And Fiasco, half-of whom now back up Bruno Wizard in the Homosexuals, are one of the finest new bands in the Empire City. This is an amazing show. When the bands are done, the door goes down to five bones and Mr. Toubin takes over for an all-night blowout (attn. service industry – fall by after the bars close – we’re chuggin’ til tha dawn).
