Aside from their music being consistently awesome, one of the things that makes being into Kisschasy is that Dazza always comes through as someone doing what he does for all the right reasons. (Can you say "A Perfect Way To Meet"). Something that is so rare these days.

The latest idea that I can't help but immediate get behind is to get a record for his new side project Fuzz Phantoms, with plans to record and release the album, financing it with donations and doing it without any label backing.

Pretty cool. Go Darren. Fuzz Phantom makes a record!

Scheduling Conflicts

So this is clearly becoming a problem - local show conflicts.

It became a large issue last Saturday when we'd planned to see Jason Longo / Muddy Violets at Teakwoods, before Domo at the last minute posted a gig at Yucca, which won out. That wasn't all that was going on either. I got a text from Shelby about a gig in north-ish Phoenix (which just wasn't going to work), and Violet Wild had their acoustic Iguana Macks gig (which admittedly we could have made before Domo if we'd had more than 20 minutes notice.

Second instance of such problems is Truckers On Speed gig on the 13th. We'd booked that one in, and then a week later found out about what is going on the same night at Teakwoods - Mark Zubia, Corey Gloden and Joe Pena. Still conflicted on exactly on which was we're going to go on that.

The latest, and most annoying dilemma is this Wednesday night - until tonight it looked like it was going to just be the usual Bobby & Josh happy hour, followed up by Strange Young Things unusually early set in Phoenix. Which initially we were4 both pretty happy about the prospect of seeing Strange Young Things before midnight. Which has turned around to actually be a problem, with the news that Johnson and Larson are doing the Vig thing again on Wednesday. Which is awesome news, but presents and issue given the Strange Young Things show.

And such are the dilemma we face living in the desert. And probably being pretty hardcore about our local music!
