Big Pimpin'

Whew...if I weren't already feeling much better today, the 60 or so cups of coffee I've ingested so far would have fixed me right up. Since I'm now nearly as incapable of coherent thought today as I was yesterday, I'll just give you a rundown of some shows you oughta be attending in the next few days...

• Tonight, NYC peeps can catch Drag Citizen at the Delancey (see DC's site for details...I can barely type here, fingers shaking, not pretty...) They're on tomorrow night at Snitch, too. A double dose of hot glam action. Woooo!
  
  
• Denver kids are in luck tonight as well...Mishka Shubastard...er, I mean Shubaly's new band, Beat the Devil, is playing the Larimer Lounge. This Brooklyn act is quite the departure from Mishka's Johnny-Cash-cum-Tom-Waites style of depressive guitar-fueled crooning. I'm a fan of both the old and the new. Highly recommended. They're also playing tomorrow night at Hi Dive (formerly Seven South), for those of you who still refuse to do my immediate bidding by attending this evening.

• If you don't already love the Giraffes, your opportunity to understand why I do is right here. Make sure you watch the video, rather than just reading the crappy blurb. (And yes, Damien is like that all.the.time.) Come see them (and me!) this Saturday, 10/22, at Rothko. They should have some wonderful (read: gross and disturbing) stories to share from their recent tour.

• New favorites Jessie Diamond and the Thousand have a free (yay!) show on Monday night, 10/24, at Piano's. Afterwards, veteran comic Eugene Mirman's show is only $10. More than I can afford, but likely worth it for those of you who can. (sniff)

And now, I'm off to the Ranger game with awesome Coco. I'm hoping the obligatory hockey nachos will soak up some of this caffeine before I have a full-blown seizure. You may want to watch the news, in case they don't. Werd.
