Soft Targets are gearing up for a two-date Tour of Western Avenue (Chicago):
this Thursday night, July 30, Soft Targets play at The Mutiny:
9 PM with They Might Be Pop Tarts and TBA & The TBD’s. The Mutiny is at 2428 N Western Ave in Chicago (map).
next Thursday night, August 6, Soft Targets will be at Quenchers: 9 PM with Slick Conditions. Quenchers is at 2401 N Western Ave in Chicago
(map).
Well tonight’s Soft Targets show at the Mutiny was supposed to be the record release show for the new 45, but we still don’t have the records. (In fact, they still haven’t been pressed! Word from the plant, simply: “Seven-inches are backed up.”) We’ll let you know more when we know more, but hopefully we’ll have the vinyl soon. In the meantime, tonight’s free show happens as planned, there just won’t be any new records to buy. (But that means you’ll have more money for those frosty mugs of beer.)
One final caveat: the real Soft Targets are playing tonight at the Mutiny, 2428 N Western Ave; strangely, Tallahassee, Florida band (myspace), strangely also called the Soft Targets, will be playing an unrelated show just across the street from the Mutiny. Don’t be fooled! It is to the Mutiny that you want to go to see the real Soft Targets from Chicago.
It’s time!
The Record Release Show for the new Soft Targets 7″ single “The Kids Want Action” b/w “Don’t Ask Why” will take place this Friday night, September 12, 9 PM at the Mutiny (myspace link).
The Mutiny is located at 2428 N Western Ave (just north of Fullerton) in Chicago (map).
The Titmice (myspace) and The Party Downers are playing, too.
This is a FREE SHOW! 21+
UPDATE (2008-09-12): This show is still happening, but as we don’t have any vinyl yet (how often have you hear that one?), it’s not so much a record release show.
