Upcoming Ginn & Sonic

Posted by Dave Segal on Mon, Apr 6, 2009 at 11:50 AM

Received this info too late to include it in the paper, but influential punk-rock guitarist Greg Ginn and one of his many bands, Jambang, will be playing The Mix in Georgetown Tues. April 7. Jambang peddle, uh, loose, jazzy psych-rock jams. Requests for Black Flag favorites probably won’t be accepted, but you never know.

As owner of SST Records, Ginn is responsible for helping to build the careers of Sonic Youth, Hüsker Dü, Meat Puppets, Minutemen, Black Flag, Dinosaur Jr., and, most importantly, Slovenly. He and SST owned ’80s underground rock in America.

Reptet open the show at 7:30 pm. The Mix is located at 6006 12th Ave S, (206) 767-0280. Cover is $5 ($4 if you buy a ticket from a Reptet member); 21+.

Wow, thanks for mentioning this, Dave! Talk about this show being weirdly SST traditional off the radar for mainstream coverage.

I actually don't recommend calling out for Black Flag favorites (seriously), but I will say that hanging out with Greg after the summer Spokane 1985 BF show was one of the nicest times I ever spent with someone I sort of worship.

Yeah, it's weird. The promoter put a 1/16 page ad out in the print version of the Stranger but no strip ad and no advance mention to the Stranger staff in order to get a feature (or at least a little blurb). Anyway, punk rock prices ($5) and the opening group Reptet are a highly entertaining jazz/punk/marchingband/avant garde/vaudville act. Be sure to arrive early.
