Flier of the Week: Sara McAllister Duo

Sara McAllister Duo flier.jpg

We all know that Barbie does it all. She's been a cowgirl, an exec, a teacher -- and she's even boldly gone where no man has gone before. Is it just a matter of time before they introduce a hipster Barbie? A doll designed to look like the kind of cool kid who might pop into a gig by Sara McAllister and Anamieke Quinn?

The Sara McAllister Duo serves up a sweet taste of mood-lifting acoustic ska/reggae that soothes the soul. It's good stuff, but not the sort of thing I picture Barbie and Ken listening to while cruising to their playset mansion...anti-Barbie music, anyone?

While two of the duo's dates have already come and gone, you can still catch two more on Friday, February 3 and Friday, February 17. It's all going down at Z Pizza from 5:30 - 8:30 p.m.

Strange Young Things

Don't miss out on one of

Strange Young Things' biggest shows of the year. It's Glodie's birthday bash!

  Rook, Flamingo and AT7 will all be spreading the birthday love as well.

"We're currently recording an album that we'll be releasing in early/mid summer, with the hope of also releasing an EP late in the year," said Adam Gross of Strange Young Things. "We'll also be doing a lot more regional touring. Good clean fun for the whole family."

Adam really means business in terms of his band going hard for Glodie's big day. "It's the year of the dragon. We're going to go ride ponies with foil helmets on declaring a mission to slay that fucker...when we learn how to ride a pony. So come out and celebrate Glodie's Birthday with us Saturday night!"

It's a free show, which means you'll have more cash with which to buy Glodie a beer or shower him with birthday gifts. Those who are 21 and older should show up at Long Wong's by 9 p.m. so you can help get the party started!

Big Eyes
​The Yucca Tap Room always likes new patrons, and bands always treasure new fans, but if you come to this show, please don't be a jerk.

Ace-High Cutthroats, Weird Ladies and Hobo Bastard will be joining Big Eyes for this gig. 

Apparently this will be Hobo Bastard's first show, so that's all the more reason to put on your good ol' Steve Martin funny man shoes and come on out for a good time.

It's all going down Monday, January 23. It's a 21-and-up show, but it's free, which means more leftover money for drinks or lessons in cat juggling!

Roll Acosta
Consistency always makes any year a good year. Thankfully, Roll Acosta is helping us start 2012 off on the right foot with just that.

Don't miss the band's residency at the Rogue Bar. They'll be playing every First Friday for the first four months of the year. Best of all, they're amping things up a bit by giving a theme to each show.

The January show will be an all-original Roll Acosta set. The February show is going to be a night of Beatles tributes. The March show will feature the band's favorite songs from 2000 to 2011. Lastly, the April show will be a variety of old, new and even unheard material.

Other local talent that will be joining Roll Acosta in their Occupy Rogue Bar stint include Russian Arms and Optics, The Foleys, Field Tripp and Tugboat, among others.

The cover is just $5 and doors open at 7 p.m. for all four shows. As usual, shows at the Rogue are for those 21 and up. More information about Roll Acosta's upcoming Rogue residency can be found here.

Sunorous
​If you're still looking for something to do on New Years Eve that won't break the bank, we've got a solution.

Sunorous is going to be shaking down the Lost Leaf starting at 10 p.m. Saturday night. Your eyes will be bugging out of your head from the band's great jazzy grooves.

It's always great to support local musicians, but this time there will be extra perks because this gig is free! That leaves you with more money to spend on bottles of fancy champagne (or something from Lost Leaf's expansive beer selection) and whatever else you please.

So go ahead with your bad self and ring in the new year at the Lost Leaf!

Out of Reverie
​Out of Reverie, Come On Die Young, Alaurabyrd, Just Animals, and Death By Routine will all be bringing down the house this weekend for what is sure to be a very punk rock Christmas. Just look at that Mexican folk-skull dressed as Santa. The flier just screams visually.

Not only will there be music, but there will be raffles for prizes as well. Raffle tickets only cost a dollar each...nice!

The Toys for Tots benefit show will be held Friday, December 9 at The Fixx. Entry is just $10, or you can be a doll and bring a new, non-gift wrapped toy for donation.

Either way, all monetary proceeds will go towards buying even more toys for the kiddies. And you know what they say about giving to charity...it helps you pick up chicks! ...I mean it's righteous and makes you a better person.
