School Boy Humor just hangin’ in a barn.
PM TODAY / SCHOOL BOY HUMOR
8:30 p.m., Vino’s. $8.
What do you get when you cross three Brogans and a Morgan? A band with not two, but three brothers and a fourth who has to endure them. I’m just guessing, but the band’s name probably isn’t the natural extension of PM Dawn. “We started out not in a band and then we got in one,” says PM Today on its web site, which is about as cool and funny a band quote as any I’ve read lately. Actively preparing for a road stint in early 2009, the fellas have three road shows in January before burning through the final half of March from Minnesota to Fort Smith. They’re joined by fellow kings-of-the-local-emo-punk scene School Boy Humor, who not long ago made an album on Vagrant Records and who, at least on their MySpace page, count Vitamin Water and Crunk!!! Energy Drink among their sponsors. Don’t Call Me Shirley and Tristan Betrayal also perform.
