Remember Green Jell-O? Remember when they had to change their name to Green Jelly? Remember when they were given their own studio on Hollywood Blvd. a few blocks east of the Palladium to dig into their endless banks of creativity and bring back gooey nuggets of rock? Remember how they don't have that studio any more and now they have to open for Metal Skool? We kid our local Gwarabees. The Roots @ Avalon...

Last spring LAist went to SXSW where there were 1,300 bands. Many were good, but a few rose to the top. Local trio Honky was one of the standouts. Dirty, sweaty, down home southern rock in the vein of all your favorites. Like if ZZ Top left behind some tattooed bastard sons out there in La Grange.

Ten days before Halloween and so many killer shows to choose from tonight. Clearly the obvious choice for the season would be dressing up as Eddie and going to the Maiden show.

If you're looking for something to do tonight, why not treat yourself to the last night ever of Blue Bongo. The regular club at Little Pedro's has managed to be dance club, blues club, avant-rock club and artist hangout all at once without ever copping attitude. But Little Pedro's, a chronically underappreciated Moroccan-Spanish hybrid bar, restaurant and club on the southeast edge of downtown's art-n-architecture district finally captured the imagination of a new buyer. Who lacks the imagination to keep the Blue Bongo folks around.

It's not like the Blue Bongo shows at Little Pedro's are a secret; heck, they even made yesterday's LA Times. But we can't not mention this. If you've been wondering when you should go (or go back), you might consider tonight for your journey to the Mexican-slash-Moroccan bar-slash-club perched on the easternmost edge of downtown. Because a little birdie told us that the indescribable Peaches will be DJing. Dare you shake your bootie to whatever sleazy, seductive, assultive dance music Peaches will spin? Get some teaches from Peaches. For us.
