It’s become somewhat of a cliche in these times to try and be unique, to a point where everyone that deviates from anything considered normal is a ‘Hipster’ and anybody claiming not to be is still labeled as one. But nothing is normal and nothing is unique… Anymore (or was it ever?).

I can’t put into words how excited I am to announce this year’s line up for the FYF Fest (Formerly F Yeah Fest). I don’t want to write much. Would rather have the line up speak for its self. It’s gonna be a blast. Hope you can make it out.

independence day in new york

This 4th of July weekend’s Captured Tracks/Woodsist festival boasts an awesome lineup of bands we dig – Psychedelic Horseshit, Blank Dogs, the Mayfair Set, Gary War, Dum Dum Girls, Real Estate, Ganglians, Tyvek, Vivian Girls, and Thee Oh Sees to name a few – and comes highly recommended by FMLY. Two day passes are $25 dollars, full lineup, location, and price of each day after the jump. After the date on 4th of July is an afterparty at the Market Hotel with ONADDES (listed as ‘tentative’), The Fresh & Onlys, Pink Reason and Babies (featuring folks from Woods, Vivian Girls, Bossy).

Another 4th of July option is catching a free show in Battery Park with Conor Oberst & The Mystic Valley Band and Jenny Lewis. A Haim sister has been on tour with Jenny so show your support! Haim will also play FMLY Beach Dazed.

Lit Fuse Bike Shop has a 1pm show with Japanther, Ninjasonik, Ghost Mall and Muhammadali. Weren’t the Death Set on this as well?

Anyways, whatevs you do remember to be safe, be smart, be respectful, and have a great fucking time.

The Mayfair Set – Already Warm
Psychedelic Horseshit – New Wave Hippies
Ninjasonik – Negative Thinking (About Tight Pants)

mmm…vivian girls

Great interview with the cute cute cute cute Vivian Girls. Apparently while dating one of the Japanther boys, Cassie Ramone inadvertantly borrowed and destroyed a member of Mika Miko’s pants. DIY sisterhood of the traveling pants? In related news, Andrew WK and Nardwuar are releasing a split, Vivian Girls are playing at the Whitney with These Are Powers on July 31 (free), Japanther will perform Rock And Roll Ice Cream for a family program at the Whitney on July 11 ($10), and Mika Miko have some dates coming up which you can find in FMLY’s Show Listings that I’ve actually sort of updated.

Blurry Preminitions of the Near Future…

<Anna>

Cultural Chemists and the Despotic Destroyers…

Thursday nights usually mean the start of the weekend up here, unless you have 8 a.m class the next day. Regardless it’s the beginning of something, and what better way to start it off than a rump-shaking-spazzed-out-tropical-climate-filled garage?

Canceled: You Bring The Winebox, We Bring The Boombox

Hey FMLY, we’re sorry to cancel our event this Friday with Japanther, Ninjasonik, Koalacaust and Joyce Manor. Fortunately for our city, Sean Carlson, Keith Morris and all the totally rad peeps over at Fuck Yeah Fest are taking the reigns, saving the night, and presenting Japanther and Ninjasonik at SyncSpaceLA! All the info is on the flyer above, and for future F Yeah related shows I suggest you add the MySpace – also used for coordinating Summer flag football and ultimate frisbee.

We apologize for any confusion, but here is the final info regarding Ninjasonik, Japanther, Koalacaust and Joyce Manor next Friday, April 17. We just got through partyin’ with our boys in Austin and it’s a thrill to bring them back to Los Angeles with the FMLY, not to mention provide you all with the REAL Japanther set that is owed after December’s freak dental emergency.

Let’s cut the small talk and get on to the tunes. A flyer is in the works and you can find the location of this show to the left of this page – 4134 Kenyon Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90066. If you don’t recognize this as a venue or even a warehouse then congratulations reader, THIS IS A HOUSE PARTY. That’s right, accordi-punk Blink-182 love rawkers Koalacaust and Joyce Manor alongside Brooklyn DIY princes Japanther and Ninjasonik will be rockin’ a FMLY house party…its been way too long since we’ve had one, but hey, gotta do it right or don’t do it at all. Forget Coachella, see you there.

ATTENTION: photographers, videographers, painters, etc… get in contact with us asap about this show, we need your skills!

More info regarding the show TBA.
