MATT DRISCOLL: TONIGHT AT THE JAVA JIVE >>>
The French. Some people love them, and, well, some people don’t.
I say screw the people who don’t.
While I’ve never been to France, and never felt the shunning shoulder of a Frenchman who thinks Americans are stupid (which I don’t necessarily disagree with), there are a number of things I feel like the French and I have in common.
For starters, coffee, cigarettes, and wine. I love all of them, and so do the French.
Another thing I have in common with at least some of the French is a love of garage rock. Who knew? I didn’t until I did some research on www.myspace.com/crashnormal ">Crash Normal â€" a two piece punk outfit from Paris set to play www.myspace.com/bobsjavajive ">Bob’s Java Jive tonight.
Judging by Crash Normal’s Myspace page, which is all I have to go on at the moment, these guys should be perfect for Tacoma and the Jive. Fuzzy, distorted warmth with broken glass edges and punk rock ethos â€" Crash Normal could easily share a bill with Tacoma’s www.myspace.com/myteetharegold ">Gold Teeth and www.myspace.com/ihatethefkingeagles ">the Fucking Eagles. Tonight they’ll be playing with www.myspace.com/robotdeathclan ">the Synthetics and www.myspace.com/freakouts ">the Freakouts â€" which should make for one hell of a time.
If you’ve got nothing to do tonight, consider Crash Normal at Bob’s Java Jive. They may be French, but they also kick garage rock ass. What more do you want?
