If you got here too late for the best years of Austin, take note that the Horsies, a truly tweaked and memorable Austin band from the Nineties, will reunite at Room 710 this Friday, with Peglegasus playing as well. (See City Beat.) Another rare event is the Areola 51 gig there the following night, as that band, featuring ex-members of the Butthole Surfers, Ministry, and Scratch Acid, plays their first non-SXSW gig since their inception three years ago. Dixie Witch and Electric Cock open.
