« Lollapalooza 2010 Tickets Available This Week (Seriously...) Higher Than the Stars »

Event Thu Aug 13 2009

"I got it at the Dusty Groove Sidewalk Sale!"

dglogo14.gifYou, like all of us here at Transmission, may still be nursing a music hangover from Lollapalooza, but you should be able to face the sunshine again by Saturday for Dusty Groove's first ever sidewalk sale. They're going to have tons of vinyl and CDs that just didn't fit in the store available at special prices including lots of "odd artists and genres." But don't expect to find these titles in the store next week--this material has never been offered to the public before and will be sent back to storage after the sale.

The event is going to be a party of sorts, with all their retail neighbors on the 1100 block of North Ashland taking part and offering sales as well. They'll also be offering refreshments and "other great surprises..."

So if you like funk and/or soul, or any of those eclectic dusty grooves, I'll see you at Dusty Groove this weekend. The sale runs from noon to 5pm. Dusty Groove is located at 1120 N. Ashland Ave.

She's Money

By Kara Luger

When talking musical influences with Helen Money, it's easy to forget her instrument of choice: cello. She references Bob Mould's Beaster, with its wall of sound and intense, thought-obliterating guitar work. She speaks of The Who and all the crazy rock bands she was exposed to in the '80s. "The stuff I like sounds like life or death," she reasons. And this coming from a woman with a picture of Jimi Hendrix taped to her cello case like he's a saint.
