Both nights are $13 in advance and $15 day of show and there are a limited number (100) two day passes going around for $20
Don Giovanni have also added a third night at a different venue (Death By Audio) in Bk on Thursday Feb 7th, which will showcase Nuclear Santa Claust, California X, House Boat, Brick Mower and Plastic Cross ($7).
Now for the NJ Skeletons take on things. Its great that Don Giovanni added the third show. California X, have been getting a lot of buzz for good reason, this Amherst, Mass band has the Dinosaur Jr-Junior tag firmly planted on them for good reason, they are from the same hometown, and the have loud, noisy guitars. Their songs pack a different kind of punch though, and I wonder how they translate live. Pop punkers, Brick Mower are also on this night, a name we used to hear a lot more of, but it seems like the band has taken on a resurgence of late which is awesome, because they are great.

Night two, seems to be the quieter, night but don't let that mistake you it will still have bite! Laura Stevenson is a tremendous songwriter and her catchy indie pop records she has been putting out are of top quality. Waxahatchee has really taken the of the bedroom sound and cleaned it up a bit and its makes a world of difference singer Katie Crutchfield's voice is fragile and at the same time piercing and powerful, even if its quiet in tone.
