WHAT: Egos at the Door, The Great Repression, Mille Nomi, Ando Ehlers, Bailout
WHERE: Red Herring
WHEN: Monday, November 19th at 10 p.m.
A lot of bands filling this bill on a Monday night, featuring touring acts Egos at the Door from the UK and punks from Seattle Andos Ehlers. Not sure if there is a price for this show, but I’m certain it will go to support the out of town crews as they make their way around the U.S.

LOVE TOY
Memphis on Main ($5) — Wednesday, November 21st at 9 p.m.
The Dirty Feathers’ Blackout extravaganza for Thanksgiving might leave you with a headache waking up Thursday morning, but it’s bound to be a good time. Memphis on Main is becoming a better venue to host bands — I feel like every show I see that they book there gets better each time. Newer local act Love Toy has played a few shows with the DFs, and they’re pairing up for another one this week. I have not had a chance to get out and see them yet, but from what I’ve heard, they are definitely worth checking out.

WHAT: Chase Baby, Chasin’ Treez, Truth aka Trouble, Jay Moses, Nikko Grey, DJ Epilep[C]
WHERE: The Canopy Club ($7)
WHEN: Saturday, November 24th at 9 p.m.
Hip-hop artist Chase Baby headlines a good show this week at Canopy. The bill is packed with performers, as I’m finding out, most of the shows this week are folllowing suit. This is the first I’ve heard of this local rapper, so it could be interesting to discover a new artist in this genre around town.
