Viral Marketing / Integrated Marketing Communication at work

Thanks to Scion/Toyota, you can see the boys from Venezuelan for free at Fort Mason Pavilion in San Francisco April 15h. Hmmmm someone at Scion Marketing Department has damn fine taste in music, or is it they just know their Target Market well?

Anyhoo, Los Amigos Invisibles is back. Again. My 10th times see them live? lol. They are that good. Sign up here for free. In the mean time check out their previous live show here. Listen to it, and you know why they are so damn cool.

Saint Etienne @ Fillmore this Fri.

One of my fav. band Saint Etienne is coming to town. They will be performing at the historic Fillmore this Fri.

Arr, the Fillmore… once I was there backstage and hung out with Ryuichi Sakamoto… but that’s a different story.

I will be flying to Hong Kong fri. night, so I’ll miss the show. If you have nothing to do Fri. night check them out! The new Saint Etienne album is actually very very good – if you are into sweet Brit Pop, dance, and electronic music… Sarah Cracknell (the lead singer) is nice to watch too.

Paul van Dyk @ San Francisco

Yay. Paul van Dyk is coming to San Francisco.

Not sure what the deal is since there will be 2 shows at Ten15… Should I buy tickets for the earlier show or the later one? The earlier show is 80 bucks (ouch)… If you have any recommendation do let me know…

I doubt he would play "Tell Me Why"… What can I say? I am a Saint Etienne fan after all. It’s also a CD release party… Politics of Dance 1 is pretty good, it’s actually one of those rare "Trance" (OMG, I’ve finally used that word) tracks I listen to fairly frequently.

This should be good…
