Melodica News! The Amsterdam Bar will be a venue for 2008!

We received exciting news this week: The Amsterdam Bar will serve as one of the venues for this year's Melodica music festival. Some key information from the guys at We Shot JR:

Just wanted to let everyone know that passes to the Melodica Festival will be going on sale this weekend at Good Records and all Melodica venues (Sloppyworld, Fallout, etc.) $25 gets you access to every show (including the Sunday all ages show), and if you want one, I'd suggest buying it soon because as of right now, only 300 passes are available. Each venue will also allow you to pay a seperate cover for individual shows (ranging from $5-10), but the passes honestly seem like a much better deal if you're planning on seeing more than one show.

That sounds like good advice to us.

We are still in the process of getting information about the shows at The Amsterdam Bar, but we do have a tentative lineup of the bands involved:

On Friday, February 22, 2008:

Record Hop
Happy Bullets
Jetscreamer
History at our Disposal
Jack with one Eye

On Saturday, February 23, 2008:

We Shot JR Night:
Finally Punk
Cry Blood Apache
Medio Mutante
Yellow Fever
Treewave
Zanzibar Snails

We are especially excited to be serving as the venue for We Shot JR Night. These guys know the Dallas music scene and we know they'll be bringing a great show to The Amsterdam Bar.
