LATE PASS: WESTERN CIV TO PLAY WARPED TOUR, TOTALLY FREE VIP SHOW

Man, we're so behind the ball on this one, it's a wonder we're even posting it, since it's already been on Handstamp and Space City Rock (and we know you read both of these - right? RIGHT! - you should, and not just because SCR just gave us a big WUT UP the other day, but because they catch stuff we miss all the time. Also true for Free Press, Houston Calling, Houstoned Rocks and Breakfast on Tour. Damn 713, way to have a bunch of rock blogs). Anyway, back to Rachel's band. Reggie O'Farrell, who needs to get more dictatorial on his band in the RECORD ANOTHER RECORD department, wrote to tell us about a free show they have coming up at Club XO. Free, that is, if you get on the guest list. Well, that's not hard to do either, you won't need to have any sort of pre-qualified pedigree, not the right name or the right pair of Z-Cavaricci pleated slacks.

Nope, all you need to do is drop an email to westerncivbooking at gmail dot com and give them your name. And your friends names. Or just your name and a number of friends you plan to bring. Or whatevz. They'll be sharing the stage last night with their pals, New York's Via Audio. Rock. Also, those over 18 but under 21 - you can get in too, but you'll have to pay a cover. So yeah, they're looking to just play a big crazy show to as many folks as possible for as free as possible. So, if you haven't yet caught them, this might be the time to do so. Party.

In other Western Civilization news, they still aren't recording a follow up to their totally fun, totally should be in your collection debut, nor have they releases a set of Rachel trading cards. BUT - they are going to be playing the Vans Warped Tour this year when it grinds its way through town like a Veriflex on a hand-rail. They are now accepting donations of used Vision Street Wear t-shirts to don for the occasion. JK.

PS - This post was terrible, and we apologize to everyone who struggled through it and especially the Western Civilization.
