PAUL SCHRAG: ICONIC TACOMA BAND LIVES DREAM, OPENS FOR THE SONICS >>>
Girl Trouble is like a nice old German beer. If you leave it out for a while, it kicks you in the stomach when you ingest it. The Tacoma lo-fi legends will play the Paramount this Halloween with The Sonics, and it’s sure to be a greasy, grinding good time.
It’s been 23 years since the Tacoma quartet started a DIY revolution in their garage. Unlike all the douchebag corporate counterparts, Girl Trouble still has the same four members â€" Bon, Kahuna, Dale and K.P. The Northwest supergroup was doing lo-fi during lo-fi’s third rise to power (we’re on six now, I think), and prove gloriously and perpetually that rock and roll is low art. According to a MySpace posting by Bon, the crew’s first performance was a battle of the bands, and they played Cramps covers, which kind of says it all. God I hope they play Cramps covers at the Paramount.
[The Paramount, 8 p.m., $26.50 - $62, 911 Pine Street, Seattle, 206.467.5510]
