y o u's big surprise

and in can any of you are wondering what i'll be doing every thursday that is not our performer presents, i'll be at the 10 high celebrating all that is y o u. singer nick's myspace bulletin:

Happy '08 to All! Our resolution is to throw a kickass party every Thursday night - the Surprise Party. You never know what you're going to see, but you know it will be some combination of original music, comedy, film, and tunes you know and love mixed together like you've never seen (except for when we've done it before.)

Curtis and the 10 High have given us permission to do anything we want. Uh-oh. Come check one out - you'll see what we mean. Here's the lineup for January:

1/3 FLEETWOOD MAC ATTACK - The greatest hits of the Mac, performed with such acccuracy that there will even be some former lovers singing together! Opening will be Troy Bieser (Telegram), Gareth Asher, and Emily Kate Boyd, all of whom will perform a shorrt solo set and a short set with Y O U as their backing band.

1/10 THE DARK SIDE OF THE RAINBOW - Y O U performs Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon in perfect synchronization with The Wizard of Oz. Psych-ATLiens All the Saints will open the show, and Y O U will also perform an original set featuring several songs performed in sync with their music videos.

1/17 KINGSIZED - The gregarious Mike Geier leads backing band Y O U through a set of high-energy lounge music, if there is such a thing. Garage-core vets the Lizard Men will prep the crowd. Expect smooth video lovin' and a new episode of A Day in the Life of a Rock Musician Children's Film Strip by Y O U.

1/24 THE YACHT ROCK REVUE - Atlanta's smoothest band (Y O U and friends) performs your fave '70s dentist office rock, including Steely Dan, Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, Christopher Cross, Ambrosia, etc. Comedy sketches by Y O U will pepper the set on the video screens.

1/31 INDIE ROCK TRANSFORMERS - The Red Coats (formerly Second Shift), Trances Arc, and the Empties join Y O U for a night of instrument and band member swapping independent orginal madness.

If you are a musician, filmmaker, comedian, or artist and have an idea or want to get involved, shoot us a message. We want to collaborate with as many creatives as possible.

Atlanta is bigger than the "showcase" music scene, and it's time to let it flow. See you Thursdays...

Nicholas / Y O U
