ST 2 Lettaz – Green Light District (VIDEO)

Ex G-Sider does mean-mugging weed rap with friends

The third single from ST 2 Lettaz’s March album, The G…The Growth & Development (following “Trillmatic” and “The Crown”) is “Green Light District,” an ode to “weed and drink” fitted with an appropriately foggy video. Like the best impulses of ST’s former group G-Side, who broke up in September, it makes a lot out of a little. Set in one room, ST is surrounded by his friends, plus some evil college-dorm party atmosphere, thanks to plenty of smoke, frantic rays of light, and everybody turn-up-hands-ing to the squishy, trap-tinged Block Beattaz production. In between the weed shout-outs (and zingers about how wack your stuff is), ST jokes that he was rejected from the kind of colleges that now pay him to perform, and boasts about how full his Gmail inbox is at the moment. Also, the way he says “garbage” when he raps, “That shit you got is garbage” is really rewarding. It’s just more evidence, if you even needed it, that even after G-Side, ST remains charismatically down to earth. – VIA SPIN

For a simple $8 cover, attendees will get to rock out and drink beer with us until we decide to close up shop. We’ll be debuting new cassettes, giving away free vinyl, and hooking certain people up with limited edition posters.

Kegs will be tapped, but you gotta be 21+ to fall down. All ages are welcome, though!

Help us set off our first Fest, and show your support for this amazing lineup:

– NATURAL CHILD
– TIGER HIGH
– The Porcharitas

– Nowhere Squares
– Walker Yancey and Furcoats

Also… we’ll be cooking out all evening, so bring your grillin’ materials.

So, in summary, you get to see a crazy number of good bands (including NATURAL CHILD and TIGER HIGH), you get beer (if you’re of age), you might get some free records and cassettes, you get to hang out in a rad record store, and you can cook out. Seriously, why would you not come?

We’re back after 3 months and we’re ready to make Huntsville laugh, so come out to the show that American Idol host Ryan Seacrest called “dope” and “fly” and “the best thing I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot”

Friday January 27th, your comedians include Landon Traller, Nicole Boquette, Scott Eason, Jason Steinhauser, Tom Hand, Sam McLeroy, and Stephen Claybrooks. And as always, hosted by me, Justin Ledlow

New jokes! All R-rated material! We don’t do clean comedy in this joint (not that we can’t, it’s just we know you’re all a bunch of dirty animals so we wanna deliver)

8 PM, doors will be open around 7:30, and it’s still only $5! Cheap entertainment yall!

Also, the Flying Monkey is a BYOB environment, so stop asking me if we’ll be serving drinks – we’re not, because we’re not a damn catering company, so get off your ass and bring your own booze

Great upcoming in-store performance at Vertical House Records with two great female fronted rock n’ roll groups!

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 22ND @ VERTICAL HOUSE

SHANNON & THE CLAMS (Oakland, CA)
Beach Rock revival Oakland, California band Shannon and the Clams take you back to a time when Judy and Johnny were your favorite worst couple, with the help of some very heartbreaking background vocals and guitar riffs of which The Beatles would be proud. Influences like The Beach Boys, The Shangri- La’s, The Ronnettes, and Patsy Cline shine through in songs like “When You’re On”, with front woman Shannon crooning like a scorned Leslie Gore, but with a rough unpolished edge inspired by the likes of The Cramps, Bad Brains, and fellow beach bum Nobunny.

HEAVY CREAM (Nashville, TN)
Heavy Cream’s aura is the color bad. They are three girls and one guy from Nashville, Tennessee that play rock and roll Stonehenge punk. Their music is youth incarnate; fast and loud and exuberant. Ripping through their set with the ferociousness of a mountain lion, their primal beats, catchy riffs and bewitching drones leave you wondering when Joey Ramone and Suzi Quatro had a love child. ‘Danny’ their debut full-length for Nashville’s Infinity Cat Recordings is out right now.

Tickets: 7$ – All Ages – Show will start promptly at 9pm
Vertical House Records • 2211 Seminole Drive / 2nd Floor • Huntsville, AL
