All proceeds from this benefit concert will be donated to Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center where Erin recieved most of her treatments.

This year the battle will consist of five awesome bands:
Come to Japan
The Lush
The Ghost of the Forest
Black Oxygen
Dance Commanders

The winner of the battle will walk away with 150$!

There will also be a raffle at the door with some great prizes so bring a couple dollars!

THIS IS A GREAT CAUSE THANK YOU FOR HELPING US OUT!

Lately it seems those uber-hip indie music czars at Pitchfork can't help touting bands just as Kirksvillain is bringing them to town.

This time it's a stellar write-up of Bergen, Norway's Sissy Wish, who play The DuKum Upp this Saturday, March 22 (with Come to Japan).

The upshot: "She wants to dance, damnit, and she wants you dancing with her."

Advance Tickets available at Washington St. Java Co. and Vintage Grooves (the vinyl and CD shop across from the Kirksville Post Office).

Wisely, who's played a couple of great gigs here at the DuKum, is gunning for a spot on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

If you'd like to help, send him an e-mail with the subject line "Why Kimmel Should Book Wisely" and a message that starts something like "You should book Wisely on your show because . . ."

Send the e-mails with your name and town to wwisely [at] mac.com by midnight Tuesday (tomorrow).

Thanks in advance for your help!
