TURNTABLE TUESDAYS!

Welcome to our weekly and musically charged, Turntable Tuesdays!! We will recap a week in music, let you know about an amazing concert you need to put on your immediate calendar or give our 2-Cents on who's, literally, rocking our world!

Lady Gaga. We love you. You are not only rocking our world, but also those of parody artists! There are some serious youtubers out there that are cracking us up with their versions of her songs. Our favs are below:

#1 - Alejandro - La Coacha - hysterical
#2 - Bad Romance - The Sims!!
#3 - Just Dance - Mostly Ke$ha, but this guy is actually awesome

OK - Now for the local stuff -There are some great venues in and around the city I have found that host some sick (and basically free) shows.
The Rockwood: TONIGHT! 10PM - check out Michael Daves. He's a little twangy and a bit of bluegrass and that banjo can definitely get you going - Listen to his song "I've Endured". Michael has been noted to play with the comedic genius, Steve Martin - they can be seen here performing together on Letterman (Michael on the right playing guitar).
Cameo: TONIGHT! 11PM - In Williamsburg if you're willing to ::GASP:: take the train. As this article states, it was noted back in late late late 2008 for being the trending hot spot concert venue! We love it! Get on the train and go! Especially when our friends, The London Souls, are playing a show this evening! Their sound is a mix between garage & funk-rock that resonates through out your body and keeps you jamming.
GoodUnits: This opened earlier this year and I have been to three concerts so far: Semi Precious Weapons, Santigold & a 40 Drum Earth Day Celebration hosted by Loomstate - all of which have been amazing and usually have a vodka sponsored open bar for a few hours - but you've got to be on a list! If you have the invite in hand - RSVP to that sucker NOW and go! The good shows don't usually start until 12, but well worth the lack of sleep you'll get.

SUGGESTION! Go to see Michael Daves first and then skip over to Willyburg and check out The London Souls! - What a night!
We hope you can check out some good music this week and keep us posted on other bands and venues we should review.

See you next week!
