On Friday 1/4/2008, Amps Do Furnish A Room will be playing at Local
506 in Chapel Hill, NC.

The evening will feature three bands:

Amps Do Furnish A Room - we will attempt to cover Television's
"Marquee Moon" album in its entirety. "Marquee Moon" is notable for
deceptively simple-sounding songs composed of multiple
deviously-complex interlocking guitar parts.  (They take three
guitarists to faithfully reproduce live.)

Guitars In The Sky - this is Mitch Easter and Shalini's tribute to The
Records, the high energy 80's power-pop band from the UK  ("Starry
Eyes" was one of The Records big hits; you can hear it at
http://www.myspace.com/therecordsmyspace).  Probably best known for
his work with REM and as the frontman for Let's Active, Easter
extensive resume includes work with Pavement, Game Theory, Marshall
Crenshaw, and the dBs, among others.

Heart Of Glass - this is a Blondie tribute featuring members of Dom
Casual, The Sleepies and Roxotica.


Here are the times each band goes on:

@ 9:30pm -  Mitch Easter's Guitars In The Sky

@ 10:30pm - Amps Do Furnish A Room
(http://www.ampsdofurnisharoom.com), covering Television
(http://www.myspace.com/televisionband);
@ 11:30pm - Heart Of Glass, covering Blondie  (http://www.myspace.com/blondie).


It should be mentioned that Local 506 has a *full* bar, not just beer and wine.

Come.  Really.  It'll be fun.  Burn off the carbon: after several
weeks of concentrated holiday fun, you deserve break from
family-oriented things.
