There are only four bands left standing in the 2009 Dayton Band Playoffs.  This week the final two bands will be determined for the September 26th Playoff final at Canal Street Tavern.

Here is a run down of this week&amp;#8217;s semi-final match-ups.

Wednesday, September 2nd at Canal Street Tavern: Skilless Villains vs Oxymoronatron  

I do not know who will win, but I know that Wednesday&amp;#8217;s semi-final will be fun and entertaining.  My electro-robot-punk friends in Oxymoronatron will pull out all the stops in the semi-final.  They were defeated last year in the semi-final round, and I know that think they can make the finals this year.  

But, Oxy&amp;#8217;s opponent, rock group Skilless Villains, told me that their fans will help them make the finals.

&amp;#8220;Our fans in the Mercer Co. area as well as our fans in the Columbus/Southern Ohio area have really been great.  These people drive something like an hour and a half one way to watch us play until 2 am on a Wednesday and then drive an hour and a half back to the respective abodes to sleep for 3 hrs and go to work the next day.  That to us that is awe inspiring. We are so blessed to have such supportive fans,&amp;#8221; said the band.

September 3rd at Canal Street Tavern: Good English vs Turkish Delights  

The edge in this one is most likely with Good English.  They have packed Canal Street Tavern in every round, and have garnered the most number of votes thus far of any band in the competition.  

But, the indie-pop-rock trio Turkish Delights are hungry to win and to be heard.

&amp;#8220;Each show we play, whether it be within the confines of the Dayton Band Playoffs or not, gives us a chance to play our music for some people that have never heard/seen us before. We put a lot into what we do, i guess the hope is that people can get something out of it,&amp;#8221; said Turkish Delights front-man Josh.

Visit www.canalstreettavern.com for more info.

Attend the shows, and vote for the band that you feel is the best.  Not your friends.

<title>The Story Changes hometown release show</title>

Singer/Guitarist Mark Mcmillon for the Dayton-based the Story Changes hooked me up with a copy of the band&amp;#8217;s new split with the Arizona band Let Go entitled Analogies.

To be honest I normally stay away from &amp;#8216;Split&amp;#8217; releases because they usually lack in continuity.  But, not Analogies, it is as adhesive as super-glue.

Unlike most splits the two bands alternate songs and build upon one another.  Let Go and the Story Changes make sense and fit well together despite the difference in musical styles.  

Two for the price of one.  Get it.

The Story Changes new songs are upbeat and uplifting rock tunes that sound huge for only a two piece.  The songs are catchy, clever, and climactic picking up where 2007&amp;#8217;s The Way of the Dinosaur left off.

The band, who just got back to Dayton after a coast-to-coast tour, will hold their hometown CD release show for Analogies at Blind Bob&amp;#8217;s Saturday, August 22nd.  

Also playing is 8-Bit Revival and Stone the Mayor Sheriffs.

Mcmillon and Poppy will then jump back on the road in support of the new disc.  

The band is so busy that I get tired just checking their show schedule.  

But, when its good, its really good.  Right, Mark?  Thanks for the disc.  I will see you at Blind Bob&amp;#8217;s Saturday.

Buy the record at the show or hit up www.fdrrecords.com.

Also more info and a video of Mark taking a pie in the face here.

My drummer friend Tony Hotel is playing a very rare live show this Saturday, August 15th, at Brother Bear&amp;#8217;s Coffee House in Yellow Springs.

Hotel, who believes that &amp;#8220;music is rhythm,&amp;#8221; is playing two sets Saturday and is encouraging fans and friends to join into the show.

&amp;#8220;I&amp;#8217;m going to make the last set a jam for rhythm and dancers, bring your own rhythm instrument and join me onstage,&amp;#8221; said Hotel.

Hotel&amp;#8217;s music incorporates digital music with live drums.  She uses unique and unconventional instrumentation touching on jazz and rock.

Hotel, who was invited to represent Dayton at last year&amp;#8217;s South-by-Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, released her debut cd earlier this year entitled Drums is Art.  It is available at Toxic Beauty Records in Yellow Springs and Gem City Records.

Hear a sample of her tunes at her myspace page.

<title>Squid&apos;s Eye show Friday at Blind Bob&apos;s</title>

Dayton-based record label Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye records will be putting on their second sponsored show of the year this Friday, August 14th, at Blind Bob&amp;#8217;s.

Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye bands Yakuza Heart Attack and Astro Fang will perform along with their friends from New York, Starscream and Anamanaguchi.

But, that&amp;#8217;s not all Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye fans.  Your favorite label has a couple surprises in store for you at the show.

Yakuza Heart Attack will have advanced copies of their new album entitled II for sale more than a month before the release date.  

Also, Astro Fang will be pushing a new limited edition 4-song tour EP. 

Founder of Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye Records, Tony Gilbert, let me preview a bit of each disc.  

My advice, drink cheap beer and land a copy of the instrumental electro-pop band Yakuza Heart Attack&amp;#8217;s new disc.  Your stomach may hate you, but your ears and dancing shoes will be happy.

Gilbert told me that Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye will have a very busy second half of 2009 .  

&amp;#8220;We have planned upcoming releases from Human Reunion, Scott Deadelus, Keith Kawaii, the Sailing, Ceschi Ramos, Smug Brothers, HCMJ, and the Happy Planets.  With the Spooks, Cry Baby Genius, Joey Deady, Astro Fang, and Five Deadly Venoms also working on new albums for Squids Eye,&amp;#8221; said Gilbert.

Not bad for a label just over two years old with a focus on Dayton bands.  

Gilbert, who used to operate nationally focused Net31 records, gave that up to start Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye in 2007.  Net31 was established and successful, but Gilbert became burnt out and eventually decided to stop releasing &amp;#8220;other peoples&amp;#8221; music and focus on local artists instead.

&amp;#8220;A lot of people say I was an idiot for shutting down something that was sure to provide finical security in favor of staying in Dayton and releasing music from people I&amp;#8217;m friends with,&amp;#8221; said Gilbert.  &amp;#8220;But I show them Felt Tip Cinema by Keith Kawaii and they shut up,&amp;#8221; he added.

<title>Hospital Garden say &quot;Goodbye Dayton, Hello Chicago&quot;</title>

Hospital Garden is moving to Chicago.  Their final Dayton-based show is this Saturday, August 1st, at the South Park Tavern.

In a myspace.com note to some of their fans the band called Saturday&amp;#8217;s show a &amp;#8220;good-bye party.&amp;#8221;  They added &amp;#8220;we really hope you can make it out.  It will be the last time we will see you for a while!&amp;#8221;

The popular Dayton indie-rockers have spent the last year charming fans in the Gem City.  

In that short time they had become an important part of the Dayton Music Community.

The move to Chicago is sudden and leaves many fans, and myself, devoid of one of our top favorite local bands.

Hospital Garden&amp;#8217;s &amp;#8216;good-bye show&amp;#8217; is being put on by my friends at the Buddha Den and will also feature the Turkish Delights and Electric Banana.

In a post about the show the Buddha Den wrote, &amp;#8220;Hospital Garden&amp;#8217;s scheduled departure to Chicago this fall saddens us greatly, but we&amp;#8217;re very excited for their future. Saturday we will say goodbye with a very special show at South Park Tavern.&amp;#8221;

The band&amp;#8217;s self-titled 2008 EP is one of my I-Pod most played.  I really dig them and will miss seeing them around town.  

For those who never had a chance to see Hospital Garden, the band writes loud rock songs with indie-pop cleverness.  Check them out here.

I am positive they will succeed in the windy city.

Good Luck guys and girl.

<title>Show of the Week and month: the Bellbrook Jamboree</title>

The vigilantes in the GCR Music Group are at it again. 

The group of concert promoters and musicians who founded the Dayton Music Festival and the Bellbrook Jamboree are gearing up for the second annual Bellbrook Jamboree to happen this Saturday, July 18th, at the Bellbrook Canoe Rental.

This year the folk, bluegrass, indie and camping festival will be scaled back from last year&amp;#8217;s three day festival held at the Greene County Fairgrounds.

However, this year&amp;#8217;s Jamboree is shaping up to be a major summer music event.

The Bellbrook Jamboree will begin at 6 pm and will include 8 local and national acts.  

Appearing onstage will be Mt. Pleasant String Band, Smug Brothers, Magnolia Mountain, Moon High, Wes Tirey, Jordan Hull, The 1984 NFL Draft, and Rock Island Plow Co.

Many in the local music community are most excited about the highly anticipated debut performance from local indie-rock band the Smug Brothers.  The band, who features ex-members of Guided By Voices, Swearing at Motorists, and Montgomery Greene, will be performing for the first time.  Despite not playing a show the band has garnered a lot of buzz through the release of a series of free digital EP&amp;#8217;s from Fictionband.com and their recent announcement that they have joined up with Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye Records.

Other local must-sees include folk singer/songwriter Wes Tirey, singer/songwriter Jordan Hull,  and the 1984 NFL Draft featuring veteran Dayton indie-folk icon Joe Anderl.

The price of admission to the festival also allows you to camp overnight.  There will be Beer, Pop, and snacks for sale throughout the night.

Not everyone is as excited about the Jamboree as I am, however.

It was reported earlier this week that the Bellbrook City Council is upset that the Jamboree is happening this weekend.  

The mayor of Bellbrook, Mary Graves, said she did not know about the Festival until earlier this week.  She said &amp;#8220;that Jamboree organizers did not discuss their plans with the city,&amp;#8221; and that she worried about traffic, noise and alcohol issues at the site.

Thankfully for the mayor the entire festival will be held in Surgarcreek Township and not Bellbrook city.

Jamboree organizer Dan Clayton told me that concert planners took all the necessary steps set forth by Surgarcreek Township officials to hold the concert.  This even included gathering signatures from surrounding neighbors that live within 400 ft. of the campground.

The Bellbrook police did promise to respond to all complaints against the festival.  

So still clap, just clap quieter.  

Can I make a suggestion.  Lets call next year&amp;#8217;s Jamboree the &amp;#8220;Not in Bellbrook so kiss my ass Jamboree.&amp;#8221;  

It has a nice ring to it, right?

Visit www.bellbrookjamboree.com for ticket info and directions.

My rock n&amp;#8217; roll friends in the Story Changes have posted two new songs from their upcoming split LP entitled Analogies.

Due out August 4th on Destination Records, the split album will feature tracks from Dayton&amp;#8217;s the Story Changes and Arizona&amp;#8217;s Let Go.

The two bands have been friends and touring partners for a long time and call the album &amp;#8220;more of a shared release than a split.&amp;#8221;

Both bands worked with producer Jamie Woolford (Punchline / Gin Blossoms) who mixed the songs together for a consistent sound and feel.  Analogies foregoes the normal approach to a split release by alternating between band from start to finish to make for a unique listen.

The new posted tracks from the Story Changes are catchy and energetic rock songs that pick up right where their 2007 album The Way of the Dinosaur left off.

To hear the tunes visit the band on myspace.  To pre-order the disc visit here.  

The band is currently on tour.  Singer/guitarist Mark McMillon just Twittered that they are &amp;#8220;driving west on the 74 towards Iowa listening to the Gaslight Anthem.&amp;#8221;

<![CDATA[I love it when bands get together to support a good cause in community.  That is why Saturday, July 11th I will be at the C{Space (20 N. Jefferson st.) for Cherry Lee&#8217;s Grand Opening Shindig.

Cherry Lee&#8217;s is a new hair salon opening later this month at 2712 Linden Ave in Dayton.  It is also the longtime dream of owner and premiere stylist Cassandra Barker.

Barker, who was formerly a stylists at Square 1, is now opening her own salon without the help of loans or grants.  She is the single mother of three who left the hair biz for the past few years to raise her kids.  Through saving and hard work she is ready open Cherry Lee&#8217;s.

&#8220;She (Barker) has worked very hard on this and put all of her own money, blood, sweat and tears into it,&#8221; said show organizer and associate Brandy Voiles.  &#8220;All of the bands playing this show are doing so for free out of the goodness of their rock &amp; roll hearts to help get the word out about the salon.&#8221;

Set to play is Akillis Greene, Gem City Saints, Fairy Tale Suicide, Reggie Stone, Freak the Mighty (KY), and J. Marinelli (KY).

Show starts at 5 pm.  Daddy Kats Kustom Kulture will have a booth along with other vendors.  Also raffles will take place all night.

As for the salon: Cherry Lee&#8217;s will provide a full range of hair services for dudes and ladies, as well as massage therapy.  The salon will even feature a lounge where patrons can kick back and enjoy a beverage while they wait.  

&#8220;It&#8217;s all rock-a-billy themed, and it looks like the shiny, sparkly love child of a soda shop and a tattoo parlor,&#8221; said Voiles.

<title>Oxymoronatron say they&apos;re &quot;in it to win it&quot;</title>

Not to take too much credit, but I may have provoked local robot-punk rockers Oxymoronatron to enter the Dayton Band Playoffs again this Summer.

Not soon after my last post about the DBP at Canal Street Tavern, where I posed a call to Oxymoronatron and other established Dayton Bands to enter the Playoffs, I received an email from Oxymoronatron accepting my dare.

&amp;#8220;We accept your challenge,&amp;#8221; wrote MC Woodchuck of Oxy.  &amp;#8220;We are doing the DBP for one reason and that is to win the whole thing,&amp;#8221; he exclaimed.

The band, who reached the semi-finals in last year&amp;#8217;s Summer long band competition, will again bring their over-the-top stage show and music to the Canal Street stage.

Last year I had predicted that they would end up victorious in the end, and this year I might again throw my support behind Oxymoronatron and their fight against the &amp;#8220;Evil, Mad Robots.&amp;#8221;

However, looking at the upcoming shows I am a bit worried by another diverse and talented field in the Dayton Band Playoffs &amp;#8216;09.

Here is the DBP dates.  Remember the fans pick the winner.  How democratic, and just in time for the Fourth.

Visit www.canalstreettavern.com for more info.

7/1/09 Sawed Off vs. Good English vs. Kelly Campbell

7/2/09 Major Major vs. Pronounced vs. David Story

7/8/09 Abi Cook and Friends vs. A Familiar Encounter vs. Cashed

7/9/09 Oxymoronatron vs. Good Sir Con Artist

The last Bellbrook Jamboree and GCR sponsored bluegrass/folk monthly showcase (or at least the last one before the big show in July) is at Blind Bob&amp;#8217;s on Saturday, June 27th.  

The showcase will feature bluegrass band the Rock Island Plow Company, who is set to play all-night.

The 2nd annual Bellbrook Jamboree is July 18th at the Bellbrook Canoe rental along the Little Miami River. 

Year two of the Bellbrook Jamboree will be slightly scaled back from year one, but the lineup of bands is still very solid.

Set to perform at the one day camp out this year will be Mt. Pleasant String Band, Smug Brothers, Magnolia Mountain, Moon High, Wes Tirey, Jordan Hull, The 1984 NFL Draft, and Rock Island Plow Co. 

Music starts at 6pm and run till it stops. 

Mark your calendars.  July 18th.  

For more on the Bellbrook Jamboree and their monthly showcases at Blind Bob&amp;#8217;s visit them here.

They also have directions posted.

Two weeks ago Dayton indie-pop band the Smug Brothers posted their 6th and final Fortune Rumors EP at Fictionband.  All 6 EP&amp;#8217;s can be downloaded at Fictionband for free.

The band will be releasing a full-length version of Fortune Rumors on Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye records in August.  The band is also set to release a single for the song Interior Magnets.  The single will feature three unreleased tracks from the band.

To celebrate the big Smug Brothers news the Buddha Den music blog is hosting a Fortune Rumors listening party at the South Park Tavern on Saturday, June 27th.

Fans can hear the new LP and (hopefully) snag a copy of the Interior Magnets single.

Performing at the party will be the Motel Beds and Captain of Industry. 

(Rumor is the Motel Beds are in the process of recording, and may have some free discs to hand out at the show as well.)  

The Smug Brothers will not be playing on Saturday, but the band is set to perform at the 2nd annual Bellbrook Jamboree on July 18th.

<title>Show of the Week: Not Enon</title>

Yea, Enon&amp;#8217;s playing Gilly&amp;#8217;s on Saturday, June 20th.  I&amp;#8217;m a fan and I think the show will be a great show.  Especially with Squid&amp;#8217;s Eye records bands Astro Fang and Human Reunion opening.  Also opening is one of my favorite songwriters in town and member of the band Captain of Industry, Nathan Peters.  

Fun show, I&amp;#8217;m sure.  But, it is not the only show happening in Dayton this weekend.  (To read more about the Enon show visit www.ActiveDayton.com to read Don Thrasher&amp;#8217;s article.  Also read a great exclusive interview with the band posted at the Buddha Den.)

Three other big shows are on my radar for Saturday.


Mouth of the Architect is at Peach&amp;#8217;s Saturday.  The Translation Loss Records band is art-core at it&amp;#8217;s best.  The band has spent most of &amp;#8216;09 writing their follow-up to last year&amp;#8217;s release named Quietly.  They are in Columbus on Friday and then in Yellow Springs on Saturday.
Also Saturday is a rare show from my friends in Vows.  The old fashioned heavy rock 4-piece features ex-Shadyside, ex-When Sparks Fly, and ex-Shazbot members.  The Vows show at Blind Bob&amp;#8217;s Saturday is sure to be fun with Nightbeast and Electric Banana also playing.
Never forget to catch a local performance from Jesse Remnant.  He is playing at Canal Street Tavern on Saturday.  I caught him at the Dayton Dirt Collective last month with Wake Up Mordecai.  Jesse, along with his backing band the Trainwrecks (featuring my fav Dayton drummer Dan Stahl) put on a really great show.  They play infectious indie-folk-pop that is at times downtrodden in mood, but always pretty sounding.  


I&amp;#8217;m such a fan I follow Jesse on Twitter.  On June 6th he had a dream he was &amp;#8220;dating Liz Lemon.&amp;#8221;  I too have had that dream.
