Blue Flamingo Tribute Shows - "Special Guest" revealed, set times, etc...

The cat is out of the bag: ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead is the "Special Guest" headlining the Blue Flamingo Tribute Thursday April 29th, at Plush (formerly The Blue Flamingo). For this show, they'll be playing as their original two-piece lineup! Their shows from back then have grown to be legendary - chaos ensued in one form or another at all of them. Although this was recorded a little later (not as a 2-piece), check out this video of them playing at the Blue Flamingo back in 1997:


The set times for the Blue Flamingo shows are as follows:

The Blue Flamingo Tribute/Reunion Shows Announced!

Remember the Blue Flamingo? The tiny Austin punk/tranny bar on the corner of 7th and Red River that many of the bands posted and/or talked about on this blog played at? Well, the fine folks running The Blue Flamingo Facebook Page have organized a Blue Flamingo Tribute/Reunion show, with many of the local bands from the Blue Flamingo era reuniting for this special occasion. Lineup for the two-night event is below:

Day One:
Thursday April 29th, 2010
"Special Guest"
FuckEmo's
The Chumps
Lower Class Brats
The Bulemics
Down Symdrome Army
@ Plush (formerly The Blue Flamingo)
7th & Red River. $5 at the door.

Day Two:

Both shows are benefits for the SIMS Foundation which is a really great cause, so don't be worried that someone is using this to bankroll their personal savings account. Look for many more of the records by these bands to be posted on the Texas Punk Treasure Chest in the upcoming weeks (in addition to the ones which already have), and see you at the shows.
