TONIGHT - SPECIAL AUDIO CHEESEBURGERS

audiocheeseburgers:

HOLY COW!

I’ve been asked to fill on the turntables at the Good Luck Bar, 1514 Hillhurst Ave in Los Feliz, for a special DJ set tonight. Nothing fancy for the occasion, just some chill music and some frosty drinks, as usual.

The playlist is packed with the standard AC tuneage:

Classic Fuzz Rock and British Invasion Cuts

Modern Electro-Fun Music

“Indie” Lo-Fi and Punk Rockers

And plenty of other assorted tracks

And if you missed last week’s ALL COVER SONGS set, I’m mixing those in as well. You have no excuse not to come on down.

Music begins at 10:00pm.

Still chill.
Still unpretentious.

2 friends of ours were stabbed at Montana and Echo Park last night. Please read.

Two friends of ours were out last night and were on their way home. On MONTANA and ECHO PARK they were approached by a man (possibly 2?) who is described as a gang member. He began yelling at them and calling them “faggots” and saying really awful homophobic slurs. (Neither are gay, but are straight allies, are vocal for gay rights, and wear rainbow patches and buttons on occasion.)

They were both stabbed and all of their stuff was stolen.

My friend Brian is a bike rider in LA and his bike is BLACK, has a predominate RAINBOW STICKER down the side of a tube, and it has a BIG, FAT SEAT. His back pack is orange and his helmet is grey. (He is sometimes known as BRAINZ LA)

Brian was stabbed in his stomach, right above his belly button. He is alive and discharged, as this luckily didn’t hit anything vital. Our other friend (name withheld) was stabbed in his hip, so hard, it fractured his pelvis. He is still recovering in the hospital.

IF ANYONE SAW THIS HAPPEN, OR SEES THIS BIKE (I’m getting pictures soon), PLEASE CONTACT RAMPART DIVISION AT 213-484-3400.

PLEASE REBLOG.
