It's 2 p.m. and I'm drinking at work! Beer, beer, beer, beer, beer. I love beer. It makes me fat, and when I drink too much, I hit on ho's and get my ass kicked by their boyfriends. That's why I love it! I may become the first person in white collar Kansas City history (recent, at least, and not including city officials) to need a cab ride home — from work!
If you want to get you some beer this weekend, then you should do it at these shows (or any of the ones already in print in this week's music section:
FRIDAY
Reach & Ataxic + Pharcyde at the Record Bar
True, we did write about this one already, but I wanted to give Reach a shout out. Homeboy (if I'm even allowed to use that term) is one of KC's best and hardest-working rappers, and with Ataxic backing him up on the decks, he's unstoppable. I'm disappointed that he didn't get nominated this year for a Pitch award. He deserves it, totally — the numbers just weren't in his favor. If he's your fave, write his name in on a ballot. Go ahead. Buck the system.
SATURDAY
Golden Republic, Baby Birds Don't Drink Milk, Ad Astra Per Aspera at MIKE'S TAVERN
Holy shit! This is one of the best rock/pop bills imaginable right now, and it's at Mike's of all places. I've needed an excuse to go to Mike's, and, frankly, the booker there hasn't given me much of one — until now. Golden Republic is fresh back from a tour de France (not the Tour de France, a tour de France, but, like Floyd Landis, their testosterone was off the chart the entire time). Baby Birds is hotter than hogshit, and Ad Astra just inked a record deal with Sonic Unyon. More importantly, they're all really good bands. The '90s are dead (don't tell 96.5 the Buzz). This is today's KC music, boy.
SUNDAY
