This 400 Doesn't Blow

That's one horrible Truffaut reference....

Every time this local indie-stution throws a party, it's worth checking out. You've got 5 chances to do so, starting tonight.

The full lineup of bands (and "unconference" hosted by Misha Glouberman) is here, but the part which specifically affects yours truly takes place tomorrow at the Gladstone:

Friday Feb. 15 @ The Gladstone Hotel, 1214 Queen St. W. (doors 9pm)
1am - Glissandro 70 (DJ set) —http://www.cstrecords.com/bands_glissandro70.html
12am - Bocce — www.myspace.com/thebocce
11:15pm - Daniel Nebiat — www.myspace.com/danielnebiatmusic
10:30pm - Sister Suvi — http://www.sistersuvi.com/
9:45pm - Abdominal — www.myspace.com/mcabdominal
+ film & video by Jeff Wright
+ DJ David Dacks (CIUT, The Abstract Index)

To say that this is a mixed bag of music is an understatement. In the shout-out to my mailing list I said I'd be "trying to find the nexus of electro-psychfolk-hiphop-Eritrean-post-no-wave-club-beatz."

Stay tuned in two years for Wavelength 500, for which I will get to make puns based on this or this. Betcha can't wait.

UPDATE: Jonny Dovercourt, the self styled "Jonathan Pun-ce", strongly suggested that this is a natural theme for edition #500.
