SXSW Day 2 – Beauty Bar / Palm Door

Lonestar, boots, and an awesome performance by Shout out out out’s; what do these things have in common? SXSW and beauty bar, that’s what! Last night was insane, between Deer Tick, Frankie Chan and Toxic avenger I just about died in the massive crowds. Beauty Bar and Palm door have really stepped up the game this year in terms of showcasing awesome SXSW acts, and tonight is going to be even more crowded. Rye Rye, Giver, and Golden Triangle will be on hand to blow the roof off the joing. Get there early or get stuck waiting in a line that doesn’t move.

SXSW Day 1 – Beauty Bar / Palm Door

Whoooooooooooooo! Saint Patrick’s day! Oh wait, it’s also the start of SXSW and Christ can you kids party. The night started off with Music Hall of fame Rock-a-billy Singer Wanda Jackson @ the Palm Door. I know what you’re thinking and yes I had no idea who she was either, but then my friend google filled me in and now I know, and knowing is half the battle. What I’d really like to know is who took my left sock while I was passed out at Beauty Bar last night, but that’s a whole other mystery to solve. Munch Munch and Diamond Rings closed last night out and Frankie Chan, Toxic Avenger, Shout out out out and The Very Best will be on hand tonight to bump the house. So if you have a wrist band, a badge or some cold hard cash be there, or don’t your loss.

Car Stereo Wars and Swiss @ The Beauty Bar

Wow, to be a stick of gum at Beauty Bar on Valentine’s eve. Hot girls, strong drinks, crazy bands and Car Stereo Wars, what more could anyone want? Oh, right  cab fare, a half pie of pizza and some tylenol for the hangover. Well all is well that ends well, if you weren’t there to get down with us for the pre Vday celebration you can’t miss out on next weekend’s raucous bash.  Thanks to infamous austin for the photos, Swift for playing an awesome show, and we’re always glad to have Car Stereo Wars in the house. Peace.

Car Stereo Wars @ The Beauty Bar

20100110-DSC_1906

C-A-R-S-T-E-R-O-W-A-R-S-! Three little words that roughly equate to “Get drunk and Party”! So obviously CSW was back in town and they played at Beauty Bar, if you’re asking yourself why you weren’t there or who they are it’s probably best you go to another blog right now; this place isn’t for you. If you were there, and still don’t know who they are you should probably quit buying double shots of Sailor Jerry and switch to Margarita’s and Wine coolers. I kid of course, Beauty Bar serves neither. So schools back in session in a week which means you’ve exactly 168 hours to finish punishing your liver and blowing all of grandmas cheek pinching money. See you next Friday with Prince Klassen, and Saturday with Bright Light Social Hour.

New Years Eve 2010!

20100101-DSC_1429

Wooooooo-hooooooooo! News year’s 2010! Judging by day long headache, it was a good night, and judging by the photos there are going to be a lot broken new years resolutions already. New Years at The Beauty Bar Austin went off without a hitch, DJ Mel worked the dance floor all night long, The Sterlings made their Austin debut, and Noise Revival Orchestra closed out the night to a full house. Photobooth photos were as scandalous as ever, and the line was down the block to get i. If you missed out on the festivities maybe next time you’ll heed our friendly advice and get their early next time.

Men who Stare at Goats

20091107-DSC_6714

So in accordance with the release of the new Clooney film, Men Who Stare at Goats, there was a promo team at Fun Fun Fun Fest. Hairy guys in camo fatigues, posters, and free shirts what more can you ask for? Seriously they were walking around passing out super soft free t-shirts. Oh yeah, and they had a goat who wanted nothing more than to take a nap. (more…)


Antics/Toyota Present: Learning Secrets @ Beauty Bar

20091107-DSC_6612

Toyota must really be pushin’ for street cred lately, because they threw one hell of a party on Friday night at the Beauty bar. I haven’t had my ass grabbed nor had that many american apparel v-necks brushed against me since Misprints Cocktoberfest. Never drink with those guys by the way, you’ll wake up in the most uncomfortable places. Photos after the cut, remember kids right-click and save FILE, not image.

It was an awesome kick off to an awesome weekend, and may I dare say it a FUN one? Because if anyone knows how to have FUN it’s the Beauty Bar Austin. FUN is what they do, especially at the time of a FEST.

There I said it in a creative way, photos after the cut.

Talk about a hell of a night, once again Beauty bar put on a hell of a show. We’ll Go Machete, Markov, and future of the Left rocked out the back tent. Inside Dj scorpio, Grrl Parts, and Dj Sno White killed it. The dance floor was alive, air was brisk and the drinks were hot.

Cocktoberfest

20091024-DSC_4583

So Misprint’s Annual October Event was last weekend, and although I think all who attended would agree that it was awesome, I have to go out on a limb here and say that it was massively disappointing. It was called Cocktoberfest, e.g., the  title of this post. Yet mysteriously there weren’t as many cocks there as I was lead to believe. I am sure reading the latest issue would clarify my confusion, but I’m barely a functioning illiterate and I had to use the 30 copies I nabbed for toilet paper since I spent all my money on the drinks at Club DeVille. So I think at this point I should just thank misprint for using such nice card stock for this latest issue and just let you know the photos are after the cut. Remember tear the magazine along it’s spine not across; staples really hurt…   I mean, click on the thumbnails and hit save file NOT save image.

Christina’s Benefit @ Mugshots

20091022-DSC_4071

The Christina Balboa Benefit party was a huge success. Lots of prizes were given out, and that means two things mostly. There are a bunch of people who bought the right to get fucked up at some of the best bars in town, and some of those people will then use their tattoo gift certificates immediately after to get really regrettable tattoos. Thanks to Alison Narro, Mugshots, Barflys, Side bar, hairy Situations, and several other places that escape me at the moment for contributing to our delinquency.

ChristineBenefit

Hey my friends roommate broke her hand, and now can’t work and they are both having a hard time. If you can make it out, please do. There are going to be raffles for haircuts, tattoos, nights of drinking at barflys, mugshots, beauty bar, hide out, jackalope, and liberty bar. Plus you know FREE BEER! So get down there and tip, even $5 would be awesome, I mean c’mon there’s FREE BEER, you can at least donate $5.

See ya there.


Ez Action @ Beauty Bar

20091021-DSC_3802

Last night was fun, and when I say fun I mean in the way that a guy in a peter pan hat and tights was bouncing on and off the stage with a strapped on cello. Do you have any idea how big that thing is? Seriously, too fucking huge to be strapped on like a guitar. Oh and there was some making out going out as per the photo above.

Wow, talk about a hell of a night. Car Stereo Wars was back in town and rockin’ the hell out of the Beauty Bar dance floor. Deadbeat Darlings, The White White Lights, and Spencer Gibb were on hand to rock the back lot. There was live screen printing by Twin Villian, market by GAT5 Textiles, and live visuals by kid nice productions. It was a super fun night, and if you weren’t there there are photos after the jump.

Bike Prom @ Beauty Bar!

20091010-DSC_5943

Wow, talk about a crazy night. Austin Bike Prom at Beauty Bar was awesome in a way that is unique to this city. Sub-commander Quito put on a photobooth, bike parts and accessories were raffled off, and Magnifico played the hell out of some Queen. As a side note I don’t think I’ve ever see that many Chrome™ bags in one place, they need their own store front here.
