COMMUNIST DAUGHTER
at Amsterdam Bar & Hall

Communist Daughter is headlining the Amsterdam Bar & Hall next Saturday, November 21st. Although recently only Johnny & Molly were on a tour, they'll be joined by the full band at this come town gig.

Opening up will be Tiny Deaths, who we previously saw in September 2014 and noted that they were a duo (singer/keyboardist Claire de Lune and producer/guitarist Grant Cutler). We're pretty sure her name is in reference to the French word for "clair de lune" which means moonlight.

The other tiny/little opener is Twee pop band Little Fevers... playing in support their debut LP Field Trip, available now. The record was recorded with Matt Boynton (Beirut, MGMT) and mastered by David Gardner (Black Lips). Three songs on the record were specially recorded by engineer Neil Weir at the historic Old Blackberry Way in Minneapolis where Twin Tone Records was born (The Replacements).

Little Fevers went on their national tour last October and finally back home with this local show. Their two December dates will be in Iowa, at Vaudeville Mews in Des Moines (December 4) and Bluestem Ames in Ames (December 5).

Communist Daughter tour dates:

Nov 20 Ed's No Name Winona, MN
Nov 21 Amsterdam Bar and Hall Saint Paul, MN
Dec 05 Johnny & Molly @ Beaner's Duluth, MN

You know we like The Dandy Warhols... and they love "Minnesoter." Minneapolis is pretty much the only city where they will automatically play "Minnesoter", which are often not written on their standard setlist.

We've been going to Dandy shows since October 2000, this is one of the best live bands as they've demonstrated with their special live album, Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia Live At The Wonder, which came out last year on The End Records.

Opening up for the Fine Line will be Portland's The Shivas.

The King Khan & BBQ Show is back in the area at Turf Club this Saturday. I find their whole black face/black "monkey" body jungle art direction kind of offensive. Am I misreading their promo photos? I'm surprise no one else voiced this opinion. Guests Milk Lines and Joust to open. (8pm/$15)
