The most amazing band in the world (excluding D4 and the Larry Arms, shit... who else is left?) COSTANZA will be playing a set at the Note on Milly-walk-"A" ave, across from the Double Door. The show is for the Emergenza Music Festival and it begins at 8p.m. COSTANZA goes on at 10p.m. Advance tickets can be reserved for 10 bucks by AIM = dontpushmesohard or by sending a message to the account at www.myspace.com/costanzaisbiggerthangod This should be quite the performance of DCP (Drunken Chicago Punk) in it's pure-est form. Band members include Zachary C from The Hemingway Method (www.myspace.com/thehemingwaymethod) as well as Miles W from G.F.Y. and Brian W from Esparanto! Also, we're told Ashlee Simpson and Kelly Clarkson were invited, as well as several local chicago-land celebrities... ok, it was just Bob Roooooooooooooarman. But still, that's pretty sweet, no? Be there or be a JERK! rawkingly brought to you by Indie Rawk Jeffro @ 8:20 PM  1 comments Monday, February 13, 2006 Would you rather be punched in the arm or the leg? That's what it's like deciding if I want to see Ben Folds in Milwaukee WI (3-12-06) or Decatur IL (3-14-06) seeing how on his latest tour he's decided to skip Illini U and Chicagoland all together! Let's see I can either go see him at the taint of the midwest or the asshole (respectively). rawkingly brought to you by Indie Rawk Jeffro @ 11:41 PM  0 comments Sunday, February 12, 2006 OMG OMG OMFG!!1 Maria Taylor is playing the Metro with Mates of State April 6th.

If the Shout Out Louds had a baby with Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, you'd have the noisiest -- yet hippest -- baby in the world. rawkingly brought to you by Indie Rawk Jeffro @ 2:13 AM  2 comments Sunday, February 05, 2006 Love Burns. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Elefant are playing the Metro Wednesday, February 8th. Tickets are 20 bucks, which is about the same price you'll prolly end up spending on beer and shots on Murphy's Logo Night. The rawking starts at 7:30pm, so you can at least catch the first half of American Idol. rawkingly brought to you by Indie Rawk Jeffro @ 3:47 PM  3 comments Wednesday, February 01, 2006 "When there's nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire." How can a band's music personify sex? Well, I'll tell you how... Arts & Crafts' very own Stars are playing Chicago's Metro February 17th, with Sub Pop's The Elected opening up for them. Tickets are 15 dollars! rawkingly brought to you by Indie Rawk Jeffro @ 10:27 PM  0 comments Go-Go Gadget Go-Go Dancing! Chicago/Champaign-Urbana band, The 1900's, are playing at Chicago's The Empty Bottle this Thursday, February 2nd at 9:30pm. If you enjoy go-go dancing female singers, violins, and good, ol' pop-indie rock, Thursday night is your night. rawkingly brought to you by Indie Rawk Jeffro @ 3:54 AM  0 comments About the Blog. This baby is my personal blog where I'll tell you -- the bored and clearly musically-inclined reader -- upcoming indie concerts in the Chambana and Chicagoland area, as well as anywhere else my favorite bands are playing. Furthermore, I'll post pics of me hanging out with my favorite musicians and anything else pertaining to my awesome life. About the Jeffro. Name: Indie Rawk Jeffro Home: Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, United States About Me: My name is Jeffro, and I have no nose -- only because noses and "breathing" are a product of mainstream culture. I love all things indie, especially music. I live in Chambana with five other roommates, which include the likes of a freshman, a stoner, an evil genius duck, a talking toaster, and a chainsmoker whose parents are a gypsy and a wolf. My sworn enemy is my psycho-bitch ex-girlfriend who -- by some sad, cruel twist of fate -- is dating one of my roommates. I like literally explode when I hear my favorite indie bands are coming to Chambana, and would certainly go gay for Sufjan Stevens or Ben Gibbard. See my complete profile Previous Posts.
