You may have read my ramblings about Sterile Eden before, so I won't bore you with the details. Just know that the band is playing tonight at Hangar 1018 with Cass and the Free Radicals, The Evergreen Playground, The Grand Marquee and Departure. It's a night billed as everything "from folk to rock to live D&B" and the cover is minimal.

The Red Hearts are playing for the second time this week. Check them out at Transistor tonight. Also on board is guest DJ Clifton of The Mojo Filters. Allow me to take the time to add that Clifton actually plays vinyl, which has become something of a rarity in the City of Angels.
