Sweat Records will be celebrating Record Store Day during their Sweat Stock once again. Come pick up your Record Store Day goodies and stay for the music. As in recent years, there will be a Sweat Street Stage. 55th Terrace (street that lines the north side of the block) will be closed off to make room for food trucks and all of you coming out to see some great bands. We are super excited to see The Cost at 3pm on that outdoor stage. The Cost… outside during the day. That right there is enough of a reason to cancel the trip to Home Depot or Bed Bath & Beyond (if there’s time) and just make plans to be at Sweat Records Saturday afternoon. Even you Broward folk… a lot of us are heading to Ft Lauderdale for Block X Blog. Even if you’re hitting up Block X Blog Saturday night, you can still still make some time to give Sweat Records some love. Worst case scenario, you eat an awesome vegan cupcake. I’m sure you’ve had worse Saturday afternoons than that.
So, obviously we really like The Cost, but there are way more bands to see. We are also excited to see Jean Jacket for the first time. The Astrokats during the day… outside. Yeah… that one isn’t slipping by us either. Much more though… Cog Nomen, Beatmachines, Komakazie and how about This Heart Electric getting the killer slot right before ANR? And ANR are on right before Otto Von Schirach! All of these acts live here. If you’re not seeing at least some of them already, you’re missing out. And not only are there peeps like Ray Milian, Mamey Disco, Never Yawn, Juan Basshead & MC Jumanji spinning tunes between sets, but that is JUST the outdoor Sweat Street Stage!
There are TWO MORE STAGES! Sweat Stock goes into the night where it gets nice and loud on the Speedfreek Stage inside Churchill’s with Testokra, Nunhex, The Tunnel, Centuries, Beastplague, Hussy, Last, Reapermanser and Awkward Kisser. We feel like assholes right now because we aren’t familiar with these bands but we are going to have to change that. A band that we have covered more then most is Holly Hunt. Gavin and Betty are one of the most powerful bands on the planet right now. It would be too easy to say “they’re loud”… I mean, yeah. They’re fucking loud. Loud as shit. But… and this is a big BUT… you might still feel the need (cause we sure as shit always do) to stand right up against the Churchill’s Pub stage to watch them be loud up close. Oh… and we didn’t forget about Kenny. We left him for last on purpose. Kenny Millions and Shitstorm will perform as World Of Shit earlier in the night at 8:20pm. How perfect is that name for a Kenny Millions related project? World. Of. Shit.
Out on the patio, Roofless Records takes over again. Local music royalty opens up that stage with Russell Mofsky’s The Gold Dust Lounge at 7pm. Russel and his former partners in crime in Quit were responsible for many young musicians wanting to pick up instruments after catching one of their shows back in the 90s at Churchill’s. They’re followed by Samsara, Last / Chrome Dick / Humanfluidriot / Togna Bologna, Whitey Alabastard, Blind Texas Marlin, MC Trachiotomy, Sobak Mazouzoute, Tuurd, Popol Gluant, Normads, Penthotal, Dim Past and of course ending with Rat Bastard, giving this entire event his Falestra Squelch of Approval.
Oh… and we can’t fail to mention that there’s going to be free Panther Coffee at Sweat!
