Mission Creek presents
Extra Action Model
Roommate
Swingers
Demas Lemus
at The Picador, 330 E. Washington St., Iowa City, IA
9 PM.

Back when I was a student at the University of Iowa, there was a rock club
called Gabe's Oasis. It hosted some of the finest music performances I've
ever seen. Gabe's became The Picador a couple of years ago, and judging by
the lineup above, it is still the site of mind-blowing live shows. To be
honest, I don't know anything about Extra Action Model, Swingers & Demas
Lemus other than that they are Iowa City bands. I do know that the fine
people at the Mission Creek Midwest Festivalarranged for them to share the bill with us,
so I think it's safe to say
that this show will be a doozy. $6 cover.

XYZ Affair
Roommate
Meteorade
at High Noon Saloon, 701 E. Washington Ave., Madison, WI
8 PM. $7.

One of Roommate's very first shows was at the High Noon Saloon almost
exactly four years ago, when we were just a keytar, a musical saw, a
Gameboy, and my scraggly voice. I'm very pleased to return to the HNS with
new songs, sound, and bandmates.

For these four shows, for reasons of fuel economy and vehicle cargo space,
we'll be playing as a three piece: Seth Vanek (drums, casio, ukelele,
singing), Gillian Lis=E9e (bass, singing) and yours truly (keytar, casio,
singing, talking too much in between songs).

Have a wonderful week.

Warm regards,

Kent / Roommate
