Club Addresses


Lounge Aid '99

Electric Lounge, Friday 22 -- Sunday 24

There's a whole mess of bills coming due, and despite the fact that the Electric Lounge has consistently improved its financial situation with each passing year, skyrocketing property values and other costs are increasing beyond the club's means. Fortunately, when you have friends like the musicians who are donating their time and talent to Lounge Aid '99, surrender won't come quickly. There are droves of fans and bands in this town for whom the Lounge is as close to a heart as the local music scene has, and for whom the thought of not having the live music venue is a terrible, unacceptable prospect. Thursday night's rock show is strong all night long with Sixteen Deluxe, Fivehead, and the Mittens. On Friday, Mariachi Estrella holds their weekly happy hour, followed by an evening full of the Gourds and a slew of special guests. Saturday, this week's cover story, Spoon, headlines with able support from a couple of Lounge faves, Wannabes and Monroe Mustang. Sunday night, Brown Whornet, Viper Horse, and Kitten Trap wrap up the benefit. Call the club for details. Support live, local music. Save the Lounge!!
