SFist Tonight

goth%20kid.jpg

DANCE: Stop peeling the yellow wallpaper, angst-ridden youth of suburbia! Tonight's "Swing Goth" will have you feeling better than if you were pumped full of morphine. Each Tuesday at Julie's Supper Club, rock-a-billy and Goth sounds and aesthetics come together in peanut butter-and-chocolate-like harmony. Add to that a little blues, waltzing, and a "healthy portion of dirty dancing," and you have yourself a party that's sure to make you smile. Whether you like it or not.

7 p.m. // Julie's Supper Club (1123 Folsom) // free; $5 for lessons

MUSIC: We know, we know -- we recommended Bottom of the Hill last night. And we're doing it again. So there. Cloud Cult, according to Dave Pehling, "delivers cathartic, emotional climaxes, and transcendent orchestrations." Hea. Vy. Also, Kid Dakota (indie-rock, alt-country) and Love Is Chemicals (indie-rock, pop) hit the floorboards as well.

9 p.m. // Bottom of the Hill (1233 - 17th Street) // $10 (all ages)

I received a flyer for Swing Goth a couple of weeks ago and in my hazy state remember thinking it sounded incongruous, kinda like Disco Zombie or Metal Ballroom...now that I'm sober it's more like Stop Go or Eat Starve.

I'm not knocking it or anything, I'm just highly amused...
