Rock and Roll giants and KLYAM faves, Natural Child are hitting up Allston’s Great Scott on Monday, July 30, 2012!. I was so excited to hear this. I have been waiting to see Natti Child for a while now. Then I realized that I won’t be in town for this :( Fuckkkkkkkk. Hopefully at least one half of the KLYAM will be in attendance.
BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE! Fellow Nashville rockers, Liquor Store and local faves SKIMASK round out the evening’s bill. SKIMASK are playing some nasty shows this Spring/Summer with the likes of Fat History Month, JEFF the Brotherhood, and The Coathangers! Check out their fine china at the link below.

Yo, you all know Kids Like You & Me, KLYAM. If you are reading this, then you have made it this far. Good for you, tell your family and friends! Now, KLYAM is branching out into other areas of the musical landscape. Enter Kids Like You & Me Presents! Starting April 29, we will be promoting and presenting shows in and around the Boston area. This first show is also special because it is the live premiere of our very own Gangbang Gordon. GG has been making music for quite some time now, but this is his very first show ever! Rhode Island’s finest garage rockers, Atlantic Thrills and local heroes, The Roaches cap off the bill. This is going to go down in history as a legendary show, so you don’t want to miss it!

New York’s finest, The Pains of Being Pure At Heart, an early KLYAM fave, are apparently playing a free show with Bear Hands at After Hours, a venue at Northeastern University tomorrow night (April 10, 2012). This is news to me, in fact I check local listings almost constantly, and so this must have been posted within the past few days, or else I just fucked up. Alas, I probably won’t make this one, which sucks because I have missed their past two Boston shows, but I highly recommend it to y’all KLYAM readers and Pains fans alike. I wish they had advertised this a bit more, though I can see why they would keep it low key. I found out through Song Kick, which I check frequently. Future Breed, another reliable source for local concerts (which I just stumbled upon today) also has the show posted.

For our fellow Bostonians out there, we will inform you of the venue and location as soon as that information is made available. I am really excited for this since Mark Sultan is a favorite of mine; his show a couple of months back at the Magic Room Gallery was excellent.
