This week's band: Dollar Store

On MySpace, a band’s profile can say a lot about their music. In their “sounds like” section, the Dollar Store says “four old punks who own some country and blues records”.

Basically, these guys have no patience for mamsy-pamsy look-at-me I’m a pop star tom-foolery. They play, they have fun, they’ll get the crowd agitated and I can guarantee there’ll be beer flowing when they take the stage at the CBGB Festival.

Speaking of which, if you want a chance to win two tickets, don’t forget to shoot me an email with Gimme CBGB in the subject line by Friday. Every week until the fest I’m picking someone who’ll get two tickets. The only caveat is you’ll be subscribed to TLT’s weekly newsletter, which is actually like a bonus prize… Last week Dana Jusahz won – Congrats Dana!
