May and June Updates :: 05/04/2008

Summertime is starting to Roll in here in the Northwest.
May 20th has a surprise appearance from MEGATRON
at Boundary Bay Brewery for Jazz Night. And at the end of the month, Megatron will be rocking out at the Rogue Hero, another epic show to be sure.



The month of June has some very exciting events…
Monday, June 2nd DJ Grapenuts will be DJing at Joel Ricci’s “Lucky Lounge” at the Wind Buffalo.  Expect a range of smoking disco cookers and sultry soul swingers. Special Guest band for the night in Brooklyn New York’s own Chin Chin… a rediculously funky disco dance band from the future. not to miss.

moving on the the Mighty MEGATRON…
Sunday June 15th brings a the Washington Beer Festival to Seattle, and what would a Beer festival be without Megatron.... or maybe that’s what would Megatron be without BEER?
anyhow, 12:30 to 2pm the ‘Tron will be rocking it out for some Sunday Afternoon BEER DRINKING!...

and now, for the BIG news…

On June 28th, Megatron will be returning to the Commodore Ballroom for the Vancouver International Jazz Festival opening for The Budos Band!!!! this will be a night not to miss for fans of great music and booty-shaking fun.  The Commodore was such a great venue for Megatron when they opened for Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, and this show with Budos is looking just as good if not better.
The boys of Tron are getting some new tunes together, and ready to bring it on.

On the label tip, there is going to be a new addition to the small dirt factory family:
Proceed is a new project, spearheaded by drummer/percussionist Karl Olsen that includes Jesse Hunter on Guitar and Tim Holmes on keys. It is a journey through space and time, through layered percussion, sweepy synths, and a strong foundation in DEEP DARK DUB...and tells the story of a nightime adventure of a small mammal.
In addition to the music, this limited edition release is packaged in the form of a graphic novel, with all original artwork… MORE DETAILS TO COME…
the title is ”Loris 2028” and is is getting mastered as we speak!

That’s it for now.
