Olympia is a rock town. Plain and simple. Sure, we've got all kinds of cross-genre music, from sexy electro laptop folk punk to AARP sponsored state worker blues rock bands, but quintessentially - downtown Olympia belongs to rock and roll. Enter Milk Music, quite possibly the closest thing to Boston's feel good party rock Olympia will ever produce - albeit a very, VERY Olympia rendition, and not so vegan twin guitar Tom Scholz-y. At least that's what I thought last time I saw Milk Music play at Old School Pizzeria to a packed house of kids and hipster elites alike, all of whom were bobbing and jumping in unison to their riff-driven melodies like a giant flooding orgasm approaching its crest on the sandbagged shores of an outrageously rewarding night. With White Boss headlining, there's no reason you should go to any other show - unless, like, you're dating someone in another band that has a show that night. If that's the case, pray it gets over early and go see Milk Music. You shan't be disappointed.
[Ghost Town Gallery, with White Boss, 8 p.m., all ages, $4, 416 Washington St. SE, # 207 (upstairs), Olympia]
