big v-day show

February 09, 2010

Check out what the Austin Onion has to say about the big DJ Car Stereo (Wars) Valentine’s Day show this Saturday with SWISS (!!!!) and Til Were Blue or Destroy:

“Relationships are just so much extra baggage when you’re a pretty young thing. Better to spend Valentine’s Day with your true loves: swilling cheap booze and rubbing bony shoulders with fellow bo-hoes under the Beauty Bar disco ball. This Valentine’s, local supergroup Swiss seeks to reunite you with some old flames—specifically anoraks, Billy Corgan-fed angst, and other not-quite-forgotten gems from the ’90s like Semisonic’s “Closing Time.” Its covers could crash this hearts-and-chocolates shindig into wedding-band territory were it not for the combined talents of the musicians involved—past lineups have included members of Hum, The Poster Children, Mineral, and National Skyline. Mash-up cupid Car Stereo (Wars) trains his arrows on those and other bands that peaked before the dot-com bubble burst, while ‘Til We’re Blue Or Destroy wraps its broken heart in bright melodies and glittering synths.”

Read the whole thing HERE.

This is a GREAT show because anytime Swiss gets together from all corners of the country- it is a good time.  No doubt….. which, is a band they very well might do an amazing cover of…

Here are some pictures from the last DJ CS(W) show at Beauty Bar from Infamous Austin.

Happy Valentine’s Day yall!
