Tonight is a supremely fun (and loud) offering of the best that Chicago, Mobile and Nashville have to offer. Drawing comparisons to everyone from the WIPERS to early SONIC YOUTH, Tennessee-bred brothers JAKE and JAMIN ORRALL are JEFF THE BROTHERHOOD. With a reputation for frenetic live shows, their "we'll play anywhere" attitude has landed them at house parties, rooftops, backyards, art galleries and they have a slew of self-released records, tapes, comic books and homemade videos to their credit. With three guitar strings and a minimal drum kit, they manage to distill rock to its primal essence. Goner Record-releasers from Mobile, Alabama WIZZARD SLEEVE have been described by Victim of Time as “Confederate glue goth tard-wave,” so if it’s a stupid good time you’re looking for, these Southern “gentlemen” have it for you at the bottom of their whiskey bottle. Joining in the destruction here before heading out on tour with WIZZARD SLEEVE are local sneering punks DAILY VOID, who RCRDLBL says sounds like “Something Wicked This Way Comes meets Silence of the Lambs.” (Flavorpill)

Farmers Market:

The Empty Bottle hosts a monthly indoor Farmers Market featuring at least 12 local and organic vendors. Not limited to only produce or meat, the market also features everything from organic coffee, baked goods, and ice cream! The best part? The bar is open during the market featuring drink specials made with local ingredients! To be considered for a spot at the next market, please email Pete at production@emptybottle.com. YUM!

Street Team:
Who loves to put up posters and distribute flyers? I know we do, and so does our street team. They are damn good at it too. However, the time has come to add soldiers to our illustrious volunteer force, and we think you'd be perfect for the job. Did we mention you get to go to free shows? Prior experience is helpful, and so is a vehicle or bike. But don't be discouraged if you have neither, we might just have a place for you anyhow. Interested parties should contact Christen at christen@emptybottle.com or 773.276.3600.

Interns
The Empty Bottle is looking for you… especially if you are looking for an internship. We would like to bring two interns on board to work with us here in the Bottle office. Internships run 5-20 hours per week, and cover a wide array of tasks and responsibilities. That said, we do need responsible and industrious folks who are interested in learning more about the concert industry. Internships are unpaid, but man alive, you want to talk about perks? Free shows are just the tip of the iceberg. School credit is preferred, but certainly not necessary. If you are interested, please send a resume to christen@emptybottle.com or fax it to 773.276.3607.
