Austin, TX This Friday: Conspiracy Disko

Yep, a few weeks ago I was to play Austin but some strange misaligning of the cosmos said it shan’t be so. Instead I found myself watching horses + dogs and admiring junk castles before treading home. But, wait, news flash: Austin beckons once again and, wouldn’t you know it, I’m due back as soon as this Friday for a completely unconnected gig, but still a ‘make up gig’ nonetheless if that’s how you want to play it. But this could be what the cosmos had in mind, as this DJ gig looks to be positively more action packed, more mayhem filled, more bunch-of-fun than the previous plan. I’m joining my friends Adam Warped (it’s his birthday, yo), Eddie Spettro, and a cast of others for the enticingly titled Conspiracy Disko party taking place at The Loft above Silhouette Sushiya (oh, hey … sushi!). I’ve got tricks up my sleeve, Austin knows how to tie one on, and it’s all coming together in a few days. Won’t you join?

That’s happening this Friday, May 14. Details below the fold, and click HERE to peep the Facebook event page for Conspiracy Disko. Wah la!
