So, I never did get around to writing about the girls show a few weeks back. It was the feel good show of the winter. So many young kids (ok, girls) who knew the songs on the myspace by heart. They could barely contain their excitement that these songs were going to be performed live, close enough to touch, which is so much closer than the internet can get you. I normally hate it when people sing along at shows but this was endearing. Really. And the band was so excited to play. Summertime fuzzy pop magic.

If you missed it, don’t worry! They’re playing again at the third night of Mushrooms International:

8PM Sat, March 8, 2008
Kimo’s Bar
1351 Polk St

Holy Shit (LA, featuring Ariel Pink and Matt Fishbeck)
Girls (SF)
The Passionistas

Also, here’s some video Myles took of Holy Shit when they were in town to send dead eye off on his toothless new life in appalachia. This is a spaced out bongo jam with bad drugs written all over it — just dead eye’s style.

And a passionistas video for good measure:

Holy Shit - PART TWO - live @ the Eagle, San Francisco, 12/27/07

So if you weren’t at the Holy Shit show, you totally missed out. Luckily WFISF has a video camera now, so you don’t have to miss out completely. So Holy Shit are a band from LA that make this really stubborn psychedelic music. They play V back to I a lot… sort of like David Bowie’s Heroes or Modern English’s Melt with You. That chord progression always sounds awesome. So check them out if you’re not already familiar. The band features Christopher “Crissy Baby” Owens from one of our favorite bands Girls.
