The Darts, Service, The Implosions at the Usual Place Wednesday May 27, 2026

 


Brian Moy's Dirty Rock'n'Roll Dance Party returned for one night (although he does already have another hip garage gig book for a couple of months from now) so that he could present the Darts - and Vegas was happy to come out and support!



Opening the night was Vegas' premier Vegas-themed garage band, our pals, the Implosions. Obviously, I've ranted'n'raved about this garage-y/Cramps-ian combo over the years of their illustrious career and this evening they were in top form. Dave's guitar sounded great, the married rhythm section locked in while Adrienne shook'n'shimmied and crooned'n'careened'n'howled. Their "Cash Out" number brought a good portion of the audience onto the stage to shake their goods along with mini-Implosions-tambourines as the other tunes from their records varied from punky-garage-rockin' to spooky-dynamic-laden sizzles. Always a fun time!








The oddly-named Service followed with a weird'n'wild set as one might expect from a band featuring an ex-member of Jon Spencer's Blues Implosion (I'm assuming the bassist, as his style would have fit with them), although they didn't sound anything like that group, nor anything else that I could put into words. Strange'n'noisy, with a highly animated, androgynous lead singer, I can't begin to describe their sound, but they were entertaining and they ended with Nicole from the Darts joining them for a couple of songs, adding to the mayhem!






Of course, the highlight of the night was the headliners, the relentless all-female garage combo, the Darts. Led by the non-stop frontperson/singer/organist Nicole and aided by long-time (off'n'on) fantastic drummer Rikki Stixx, they now include a (relatively) new bassist Lindsay Scarey and guitarist Rebecca Davidson, who have actually been in the band for quite a while now, but I don't believe that they have been back to Vegas with this line-up. 

In any case, their set consisted of the patented Darts-styled, organ-fueled, high-energy garage rock'n'roll originals and one unusual cover (it'll come to me). They have written a new dance song, so had the singers of the two openers on stage to demonstrate the moves for the crowd! Groovy garage from start-to-finish and the Wednesday night crowd (good turnout!) loved every minute! 









Big thanks to Brian for bringing them out and the the Usual Place for hosting the night! A great time was had by all!

The Girl on the Train - Paula Hawkins

 


This is another one that, while interesting, I didn't really care for all that much. Part of it is the writing style but I think that mostly it was because none of the characters were good people, to the point where you couldn't really care too much about any of them. Of course, part of the tale was the fact that they could overcome their weaknesses and survive, but some were sad, some pathetic, some mean, some evil, some clueless - none that you really wanted to root for.

The plot is based on what the "girl" (woman, really, but the author is female, so I guess I shouldn't nitpick) sees while passing her old home on the train. Unfortunately, she is a confirmed alcoholic known for having blackouts so no one really believes or listens to her when she claims to have information pertaining to a disappearance that turns into a murder investigation. She tries to put herself into several relationships - including her ex-husband's with his new wife and child - as she attempts to discover what happened, particularly when she realizes that she was in the vicinity when the abduction happened - she just happened to be blackout drunk at the time.

Whether drunk or sober, she pulls some ridiculous stunts that does not endear herself to any of the players, particularly the police who finds her involvement to be distracting at best, illegal at worst. But, despite it all, and despite being objectively pathetic throughout most of the story, she does unravel the truth at the end.

As with any mystery, there are plenty of twists'n'turns and some nicely unexpected bits, but something just didn't resonate with me. Not terrible, by any means, but not something that  really pulled me in.

Circle Jerks, Gorilla Biscuits, 7 Seconds at Brooklyn Bowl Sunday May 24, 2026

 


There was no Punk Rock Bowling Festival this year but a lot of places stepped up to fill the void, although this was the only gig that we made it out to for various reasons. Obviously, both Melanie and I have been fans of the Jerks since their early days, but only had a passing familiarity with 7 Seconds (we played with Kevin Seconds decades ago in NoCal) and knew nothing about Gorilla Biscuits, but got there early to see everyone.

7 Seconds opened with their brand of poppy, sing-along punk with a positive message - very simple backing with a strong drummer who really drove the songs. Not a lot of stage presence overall but catchy, super short pop tunes with plenty of parts for the crowd to join them - which they happily did! They closed with a cover of "99 Red Balloons", which seemed an odd choice to me, but apparently, they are known for it and everyone loved it!


Gorilla Biscuits had a straight edge/vegan message and plenty of on-stage energy but musically kinda almost punk-prog  - entertaining but not my cup of tea although once again the crowd certainly knew almost everything they did, so I was in the minority. (Looks like I didn't get any good photos of them - not that any of my phone photos turned out that great.)

Of course I saw the Circle Jerks back when they started - in fact I swear I saw Keith with Black Flag although I can’t prove that these days - and they were always a wild ride with the band blasting at super sonic speed while Keith ran around the stage, only occasionally singing into the microphone. Of course, these days he’s almost 71 and has had back problems so he is a lot more stationary although no less passionate. He claimed to have laryngitis but he sounded great to us, nonetheless. Greg still has a super guitar tone - SG through a Marshall - and “new” bassist Zander Schloss (ex-Weirdos) was excellent and powerful while the drummer impressed everyone as he flailed with the same style and energy as Lucky back in the day.

Definitely a greatest hits set - practically everything you could ask for - with lots of monologues from Keith in between numbers and the band almost got into a fist fight with a couple of guys up front who apparently didn’t understand the band’s politics. (They got ejected). While not as manic as the old days - which no one should expect - they still sounded excellent and were more than worthwhile!

Green Book (movie)

 


I stumbled upon this 2018 film randomly cuz I dug the preview that Netflix showed me of the main characters in a 1960's juke joint. That is a short scene in the movie, but a good one, and it got my attention enough to give the flick a try.

While this film is based on a true story, apparently there is plenty of controversy dug to the fact that the film clings to stereotypes - kinda ironic as it is a film about race in the 60's and how an educated, gay, wealthy Black man and a working class white become friends.

The classically trained Dr. Don Shirley hires a rough'n'tumble Italian to drive him on a tour of the Deep South in the early 60's, where they knew there would be trouble of some kind and needed someone who could handle themselves and the trouble. 

Tony educates Don in modern Black music and takes care of problems that arise as Don shows Tony other worlds, from high brow concerts to gay hookups and blatant racism that Tony was somewhat guilty of himself. 

While I'm told this is anything but historically accurate for many reasons - as most bio-pics are - as a story, it is well done, with some humorous bits contrasting with the horrible racism. I enjoyed the musical segments, even as the style is not my usual thing, other than the afore-mentioned juke joint scene, which is fun'n'funny.

A cool watch, for certain!

What the Dead Know - Laura Lippman

 


Maybe it's just my personal headspace at the moment, but this one took a bit of time to grow on me - although that has happened before with slow introductions. I did end up enjoying this mystery quite a bit with its many twists'n'turns and unexpected sidelines.

A random car accident brings up a decades-old cold case involved two missing teenage girls, as the enigmatic woman who caused the accident claims to be one of the girls. From there the story moves back'n'forth in time, with some pure narration of the past mixed with present-day mystery as the woman guards her past'n'present identities (she initially simply claims knowledge of the long-ago events). Murder, abduction, pedophilia, torture, strange characters and more overlap as bits'n'pieces of the story evolves, but no one is quite certain of anything until the mother appears from her isolation in Mexico.

Nothing is quite what it seems and no one really knows everything about the case until the end - if even then. 

Plenty of genuine surprises and even while none of the characters are truly good people, you do get sucked into the tale. Definitely worthwhile.

The Book Censor's Library - Bothayna Al-Essa

 


While not a bad read, this one was not one of my recent faves, despite the awards that it has received. Basically it is a slightly surreal update on Orwell's 1984, with numerous references to that tale, but definitely some Alice in Wonderland wackiness added to the mix.

While this is supposed to take place in a near-future, the environment is such a copy or Orwell's story - with a few names changed, although even the author references the book specifically - that it is somewhat distracting.

A book censor, whose job, naturally, is to approve bland books for the publics' consumption that do not encourage imagination or free-thinking, discovers real fictional literature and is immediately addicted. He finds like-minded people and does what he can to save stories from the annual pyre. Unfortunately, his highly imaginative daughter (whose knowledge of fairy tales and stories is unexplained) is taken by the authorities and the censor does what he can in the hopes of her return.

From there, the tale gets even more surreal than it had been, with an unexpected and truly bizarre ending.

Personally, this simply relied too heavily on 1984 without enough originality or even variations on the theme, even as it is obviously a play on modern-day vapidness and the current political environment, which of course, was the point of 1984, as well. Just wasn't for me...

Sharp Objects - Gillian FLynn

 

This is a kinda odd one...A Chicago reporters, who is also a self-cutter, returns to her small town in Missouri to cover a story on a possible serial killer. The killer targets young girls, does not molest them, but strangles them and removes their teeth. 

Camille, the reporter, stays with her estranged mother and step-father and their odd, precocious 13 year old daughter - her step-sister. The mother was always unusual but went over the top when Camille's previous sister died of a mysterious illness at a very young age. The mother is extremely unloving and downright rude, but Camille stays there out of necessity and gets to know the new, rambunctious, wildcat sister, while she tries to report of the case.

A hotshot, out-of-town detective becomes interested in Camille (an attractive woman who hides her word-cuts) and as they both work the case, they, guardedly, give each other some info. But Camille also becomes infatuated with the prime suspect, the latest victim's brother, considerably younger than her, but broken enough and with enough similar traumas in their lives to relate to each other.

She always felt herself an outcast in town, even though she was rich, popular and beautiful, and reacquainting herself with the townsfolk's proves to be as awkward as one would expect from someone who got out when they didn't. I truly can't imagine going back and trying to deal with the kids I went to high school with, myself. But Camille and her friends were the popular ones, who bullied the other girls and fucked football players and partied. No one really comes off as a good person that you can empathize with, which makes it all a bit uncomfortable.

Lots goes on, of course, and Camille discovers more than the detective, frankly, and, of course, there are plenty of Flynn's twists'n'turns, although the conclusion was a bit of a disappointment for me. Interesting, but not as good as some of her other works.

Nobody's Girl - Virginia Roberts Giuffre

 


This is the autobiography of one of Epstein's many victims, who was abused before and after that episode in her life, so it is sure to be a depressing read, but I wanted to learn more about this horrific situation so I am giving this a go.

Right from the start, she details gruesome abuse from her family (denied, of course) to strangers pulling her off the street to outright kidnapping and trafficking. Sadly, as happens all too often, the abuse allegedly continued into her later life, although in the book she paints a picture of domestic bliss with a loving husband. That alone is a bit cringey if the reports of this relationship are true, and her co-author insists that there were multiple allegations against the husband, including police interventions, but Giuffre did not want that to downplay the story of Epstein's abuse.

It's a tale that repeats itself continuously - abuse at home which causes a child to rebel (she does the usual - drink, drugs, truancy) which causes the parents to put her into a correctional facility which continues the cycle and then she escapes from that and ends up on the street.

After many terrible escapades, she returns to her parents and her dad gets her a job at Mar-a-Lago and things are looking up, until she meets Ghislaine Maxwell. So many passages are grotesque and truly difficult to read as Virginia moves from one abuse to another, wanting to believe in people and ignoring red flags in her hopes for a better life. We are constantly reminded just how young she is and despite the evils she had lived through, she was still all too naive and innocent, as most people her age would be. Maxwell introduces her to Epstein under false and disgusting pretenses and the horror continues from there.

But at the same time, she was hob-knobbing with literal billionaires and living a lifestyle that most of us literally could never image. Of course, she didn't want this lifestyle and would never have agreed to it from the beginning, but its allure did help to keep her entangled in the web that Epstein and Maxwell had created.

Eventually, she does get away, gets married and moves to Australia but even there, Epstein and Maxwell eventually track her down and basically threaten her to keep quiet as they weather multiple lawsuits. Eventually, due to the lack of justice, she joins forces with lawyers on multiple lawsuits, but even at this point, she is not naming names for the most part. There are a couple - such as Prince Andrew - but she seems to go out of her way to keep the lid on bigger names, which she later, believably, says she does to avoid threats to her family. She does goes out of her way to indicate that she was not involved with Trump and didn't know anything about his dealings, despite all of the evidence against him - although it certainly could be true that she did not know about him specifically - unless this is one of the people she indicates that she is afraid of. 

Many years and many lawsuits later, there is still all too little justice to be seen for these victims, but Giuffre fought up until her death - by suicide after innumerable major health issues and estrangement from her husband and children. 

An appalling tale but one that certainly needs to be told, especially as so many of these specific abusers continue to live carefree lives. I, who have been extremely lucky in my life, found this difficult to read - I would not recommend it to anyone who has been a victim themselves.

Kepi Ghoulie, Suburban Resistance, Femaliens at Red Dwarf, Monday April 20, 2026

 


Of course we try to see our old friend, Kepi, any time he comes to town and this time out he was playing fully electric with B-Face on bass and Adam Bomb on drums, and on top of that, our LV pals the Femaliens and Suburban Resistance were on the bill AND it started at a reasonable time, so we knew we had to make it out.

Although they have been out'n'about for a while now, this was the first time we were able to check out the Femaliens, a co-ed, kinda sister outfit to SR, sharing guitarist Tom, along with a couple of SR's beaus. They are silly fun punk rock'n'roll with a vaguely outer space theme and plenty of "fuck you" lyrics! Everyone sings, although the women in the group trade off lead vocals - even Geri, the drumming novice who propels the rest of them! I feel like they're still getting their footing, but good times and good people - check 'em out!



I have ranted'n'raved about Suburban Resistance many a'times already and besides being cool cats, they are a tight punk'n'roll band with real songs, hooks galore and plenty of singalong "whoas" and "heys" and such. Singer Kevin is a sight to behold as he paces, dances and literally bends over backwards to perform for the crowd. The band, as I said, is tight and melodic while rockin' with catchy punk rock tunes. Truly a Las Vegas fave and highly recommended!





Kepi and I were briefly discussing how we have known each other longer than most (not all, of course) other friends, since our bands have been playing together since the early/mid-80's when he started in the Berrypickers (although he clarified that he had a studio-only version of the Ghoulies before that, which now actually sounds familiar - wonder if I have those recordings somewhere?!). We are still on good terms decades later - mostly due to the fact that he is a super friendly, fun'n'outgoing person!

In any case, this version of Kepi Ghoulie/Groovie Ghoulies is yet another solid line-up - although I don't know that I've seen a bad one yet! Kepi on guitar for this tour (he has played every instrument as well as "just" singing in various incarnations) and everyone is tight'n'solid'n'minimalistic, keeping to just what the songs need. This was basically a GG's greatest hits set, with so many faves that everyone in the crowd was singing along and dancin'n'partin' throughout. Kepi can't sit still and is always writing more and learning more covers, but everyone here was smiling throughout as he went thru his set of catchy-as-hell, but simple'n'funny tunes about beasts with five hands and brain scramblin' devices and much more! 

All I gotta say is if you're looking for a good time - whether you're in a grumpy mood or just wanna have fun - check out Kepi and his gang!

                                                        










Big thanks to Red Dwarf for hosting the night - they certainly had a great Monday! - and for Kevin Wilcox from SR for helping set this up! Every once in a while you have to get a reminder of what fun is all about and all three bands provided that lesson!
