Afterwards, a band that recently made a move to Athens from Orlando, Summerbirds in the Cellar, played a set of intriguing and unique rock songs. It was loud. It was proud. It was spectacular. So much, in fact, that I plan to boogie down to their next show on April 27th at the Drunken Unicorn, which you should plan to do as well. Unless you suck. After Summerbirds cleared out, a band out of Nashville that’s making buzz all over blogs and publications, How I Became the Bomb, took the stage. This band is hilarious. Really. Most of the lyrics are highly sarcastic and the beats are catchy enough to have you in a fit of borderline epilepsy. I was a little disappointed I didn’t hear my favorite song off their EP, “Fat Girls Talkin’ ‘Bout Cardio.” Yes, they have a song named that and it’s exactly what you think it’s about. Genius.
Overall a pretty good showing, even if I was a little put off by the first guy. Thanks to ASCAP for feeding me drinks. If you weren't there to laugh and point at the chick who had no sense of balance (read: fell on her ass) and toted around toilet paper on her heel, then make sure you're at the show next time they throw a shindig. It never fails, my friends. PS - The chick, in case you're not following, was yours truly.
Summerbirds in the Cellar - Behold the Wolf
How I Became the Bomb - Killing Machine
And now, I will leave you with this highly disturbing and muy sad visual of everyone's favorite trainwreck, who appears to think she can pull off a Sinead O'Connor:

That's Britney Spears. And here I thought I was the only one having a nervous breakdown...

no accolades for them crunkbabies gettin that thing off on the right foot????????
i understand. we havent been recognized by kissATL yet.
one day. :/
crunkbabies?
dead on with the corey crowder thing. i feel bad for the guy because it's not like he's bad. it's just like, john mayer already did it, try something else...
I didn't do Crunkbabies. I was too busy doing other things I shouldn't be at late hours. Like passing out and the like.
i heard she got a hot atttoo also and people where touching her. Also is she a natural brunette? it loks like that
Yeah, a tat of pink and red lips on her wrist. Which doesn't explain why there are also pics of her pants down.
Who knows what color her hair is? There's nothing on that girl that's natural. Other than her trashiness.
On another note, I'd like to point out that I called this turn for the worse about 8 years ago, and I'm somewhat happy to know I was right.
not sure how late you were out, but Dead Confederate were mindblowing as well, i thought. summerbirds were equally awesome in athens last night, even with just one drummer. i am pretty sure i proposed to their guitarist afterwards...but really, if i could marry a band, it would be summerbirds...because i am in love. sigh.
Remind me to go with you to Summerbird in the Cellar's next show. I missed them this time around and really want to see them. I got there late. Boo. Hiss.
Dead Confederate = good :)
