"Mellow, refined indie-jazz (new genre alert?) from this winsome local duo who promise to keep things classy and adorable in equal measure."-LA Times
When T.S.O.L. blasted onto the Orange County punk explosion in 1979 with white face paint, 6′ plus frames and blazing punk anthems, they were automatically a force to be reckoned with. Today, 10 years since it’s last “reunion”, the band is back to give us what they gave then. “Superficial Love”, “80 Times”, “Code Blue”, “Wash Away” and the rest of those vintage punk nuggets will be blasted live into our faces again. Those who were not around to witness TSOL in their heyday can finally see for themselves why the band spawned a generation of bands and changed the shape of music today.

¡¡¡ MARK YOUR CALENDARS !!!
KCRW is concerned about surviving these critical times. NPR has had to cancel two daily news programs and lay-off 67 people - the largest in the network's history.
LA's commercial indie music station Indie 103 has just gone dark, unable to compete in today's corporate radio marketplace.
We need to protect Morning Edition and All Things Considered from further staff cuts. We must insure that we'll be able to send NPR the largest check from any Southern California station - almost 1.4 million dollars. NPR is more dependent than ever on these funds in this dire economic climate.
And we must see to it that emerging and independent artists will continue to have a home at KCRW.
But we can't do it without your help. Please join, renew, or make an additional donation now and give us the dollars to operate KCRW and support NPR. If you give $100 or more you'll receive the new KCRW carry-all bag for free, in additon to your premium. It folds up to fit in your pocket or purse.
Friday is your last chance to be automatically entered in all 3 Sweepstakes - a trip for two to Tahiti, a 10-Day luxury adventure in Australia, as well as the chance to win the new Jetta TDI Clean Diesel by Volkswagen.
Remember, it pays to subscribe to the station. With a current KCRW Fringe Benefits card you'll save 10-20 percent at nearly 1000 participating stores, restaurants and concert venues, including online vendors as well.
The financial downturn will eliminate many worthy non-profits. Those that remain standing will be there because their supporters sustained them through thick and thin.
Your commitment to KCRW and NPR is critical in these tough times.

Echo Park Named One of Top 10 Great Neighborhoods
And when you hear that, you might find yourself asking which Realtor came up with that ranking. Luckily, this time there is some creditability behind the designation: the American Planning Association. They "singled out Echo Park because of its breathtaking topography set in the hills above downtown, historic architecture, pedestrian-oriented streets and stairways, and engaged residents who, over the years, have gone to great lengths to protect and preserve their community," according to an APA release (add: their website has more info and history on why EP was chosen) .... more after you click on the image!
