I was recently talking to Rufus from Scoot Inn about playing there sometime soon, and he offered this Saturday, August 21.  

Turns out I'm playing bass in You Might Think We're Sharks at the Texas Roller Derby halftime show this Saturday, so I wasn't available. But I said I could hook up an awesome show for him.

Saturday, Aug 21, Scoot Inn

So this Saturday at 9pm at Scoot Inn, for the low low price of $5, you can catch three excellent bands: paperthreat, J_Dub and The Tease, and Coast of Nebraska.

10pm Coast of Nebraska

First up at 10pm, Coast of Nebraska are a young band, playing catchy poppy rock music. On Big Western Flavor, Westy writes about the impact of a Coast of Nebraska show on him and his girlfriend, Anna C:

We went to see the band because I thought there was a real spark in some of their online recordings and writ large, seeing them live only reinforced that. Strong original melodies and oddly loping, catchy guitar parts at their best moments make them engaging to watch even in their current incomplete form.

11pm J_Dub and The Tease

J_Dub and The Tease may be familiar names to Austinites or fans of WRS, because lead singer Jonny Dub served a stint as our bassist a couple of years ago. He left to devote more time to his own band, and has since put out an excellent CD, Atom No. 5, and continues to play around town with his Spyjet Zero labelmates.

Jonny and his band will be bringing their mellow soul grooves to the Scoot Inn stage at 11pm.

12am paperthreat

Last up is paperthreat, at midnight.  paperthreat have been covered a number of times recently by Austin Town Hall, as well as appearing on ATH's Austin Summer Mixtape. 

They play electronic pop music, and you can get a feel for it at their Bandcamp site. If you like it, you can download it for free, and come out to see them Saturday night!
