http://529atlanta.com/calendar/7028/ Sunset Pig - its been a couple of months since the last gig but I feel like I am enjoying this band more and more. Pike Co. - Atlanta Psychedelic Pop. 1st time seeing these guys. Dead Now - Fantastic. I must applaud the eclectic nature of these bands. Needs to happen more. Their quick bio - To those who miss the fuzztastic buzz of Andrew Elstner’s guitar since he left Torche nearly two years ago: may you mourn no longer. The Atlanta native has joined forces with Derek Schulz (bass) and Bobby Theberge (drums) of experimental metal duo Day Old Man to form Dead Now, a sludgy, buzzy, heavy stoner rock outfit that sounds best when cranked to 11, Spin̈al Tap-style.Signed to Brutal Panda Records, the band will be releasing its self-titled debut album on September 7, just in time for their upcoming Kerrang!-sponsored tour with Red Fang, Big Business, and Monolord which kicks off in Raleigh, North Carolina, the same day.“Derek, Bobby and I couldn’t be more hyped for this,” said Elstner of the upcoming release. “Killer label, amazing people, and now we’re desperate to get the jams in front of some faces and just crush.” Friday February 15 2019 40watt, Athens GA Drive By Truckers w/Eyelids Road trip with Henry to see Eyelids again. Bumped into ⅔ of vincas all working their non band gigs at 40watt and Caledonia. Chatted with Andrew of Elf Power for a bit. Eyelids were great. Played almost a full hour opening for Drive By Truckers. Caught about 15min of their set and we headed back home. Cutting thru crappy rain.
