Hi Everyone,
The next IPO Presents show at The Scene is happening on Thursday, March 18
at The Scene! Here's the lineup:
8:45 Eugene Edwards Band-Edwards is one of the most talented
singer/songwriters we've seen in a long time, with ultra-infectious songs
that sound like a more rockin' version of Squeeze, with some rootsiness
thrown in for good measure. Plus, his teen idol looks don't hurt, either!
His new album should be available shortly. www.eugeneedwards.com
9:30 Careen-An excellent young band from Portland! Their latest CD,
Dangerously In The Red, is a deft combination early Posies, modern brit-pop,
and angular indie-rock. Their live performance promises many great things!

10:15 Action Now-We were thrilled when this band did a reunion show at last
year's IPO in Los Angeles, and we're just as glad to have them back for
their Record Release party at The Scene! Said record, All Your Dreams…and
More: 1981-1984, chronicles the band's output, and is replete with jangly
power pop which will take you back to those halcyon days of Paisley Pop and
skinny ties! www.aveburyrecords.com/actionnow
11:00 The Randies-This band is continually forging its reputation as one of
the most popular on the LA Scene! Awesome all-girl punk/pop all the way,
with plenty o' hooks, harmonies, and catchy guitar riffs! Their upcoming
CD, Friendship Motor Inn, should be released soon. www.therandies.com
11:45 Bang Sugar Bang-Another hot punk/pop band from LA who often share
bills with The Randies. Although they're young, the trio is definitely
evocative of old-school So. Cal punk bands as they just blast out amazing
bursts of melody and energy! Lead vocalist Cooper has been compared to
legends like Penelope Houston (during her Avengers days), Exene Cervenka,
and Debbie Harry! www.bangsugarbang.com
Due to a new policy of The Scene, from this show onwards there will be a $5
cover to get in. Please don't let this discourage you from coming to the
IPO Presents shows! $5 is not a bad cover for 5 great bands, and the
parking around the Scene is always free.
The Scene is a 21 and over venue, and is located at 806 Colorado St. in
Glendale. Their website is www.thescenebar.com and their phone is 818
241-7029.
I hope to see you there!
David
